Really good experience! We would really recommend this rafting trip to anyone who likes adrenaline in their blood! Our guide on the boat was Orlando - he was skilled, funny and did everything for us to have a good experience and have a huge party. All the guides were hugely welcoming and friendly, and did everything to make sure everyone had a great experience. We were in safe hands and safety is in order. We were given good instructions. We had a good lunch and could talk to those we had rafted with. Subsequently, we visited the organic farm, where we were given a tour and information. Finally, we toasted in Moonshine and sugar cane juice. The trip is all worth the money and highly recommended!
