What to expect
You'll start with a safety briefing and gear check—helmet, life jacket, paddle. The river drops steadily through forested ravines, with your guide calling out rhythm and pointing out wildlife. Rapids come in short bursts; between them, the pace eases and you drift past limestone cliffs and overhanging vines. Expect to get soaked and your arms working. The hidden waterfall appears mid-journey and marks a good spot to catch breath. By the final bend, you'll have found your rhythm. Total time in water is roughly ninety minutes.
