- All participants should be aware they are rafting a real river with real risk. We are seasoned professionals and will do our utmost to ensure you have the time of your life. But it is common for rafts to flip and on very odd occasions for people to sustain an injury which is primarily from people hitting each other with paddles or not tucking their chins on the waterfall when instructed by the guides.
All in all, we raft tens of thousands of people per year and strive to be the highlight of your holiday which we have done for hundreds of thousands of people.
