Our guides are all over four years of experience in water surges. Also, among them, the top leaders have more than 10 years of experience and have a guide in the rafting world championship. Please participate in the tour with confidence.
Please understand that rafting is not a special outdoor sport that goes down the river together with everyone. It is our guides who keep training hard every day to avoid overturning.
