Common Questions

If the water is too low, we change the session to White Water Tubing or Kayaking. Alternatively, we can raft on a deeper section of the river.

No! The main aim is to stay on board. If you fall in, we provide buoyancy aids that keep you floating safely.

We arrange a shuttle at the start of the session, leaving some vehicles at the end point and some at the start.

We need 4 people to make the raft viable. Contact us and we will try to match you up with others looking to join a group.
