Rafting experience

Great experience, and had lots of fun, well worth it. Jason and Luchito were great and we did rafting, swiming through the rapids and also rolled the boat. Great experience.

Best activity in Arequipa!

Very good price of 40 sol which was incredible value for such a fun experience. Never had any experience of white water rafting but I felt safe throughout. It was just me and 2 in the raft with the instructor, and it was a great atmosphere. I would like to thank Andy and Jean Pierre for the experience. It really was the best activity in Arequipa.
