What to expect
You'll meet your guide, kit up with helmet and life jacket, then paddle into the river's tighter sections. The early rapids build your confidence before the middle stretch cranks up the pace. A genuine adrenaline spike comes at the end when you face the river's steepest drop—a 45-degree plunge that'll get your heart going. Expect to get thoroughly wet and muddy. Once you're back ashore, rinse off in the shower facilities and dig into the buffet lunch with the rest of the group.
Good to know
Transfers cover main tourist zones but Candidasa pickups cost an extra 250,000 IDR. Photos aren't included in the price. Sit this one out if you have back injuries, are pregnant, or have heart concerns. All fitness levels can manage the paddle.
