Summary: Excellent fun - very good facilities and organisation from the company. Sebastian was very good guide, with the instructions and fun. Beatiful area and the river was sufficiently challenging to experience some bumps but never felt at risk or dangerous. It was also great exercise with the paddling.

Summary: Amazing experience for beginners. The river is super clean and water is cold (perfect for hot summers). Our guide Lupa was extremely cordial and friendly, we had a lot of fun with her. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. They even helped us plan our next hikes in the mountains after the rafting. Definitely recommended.
