What To Expect

Packrafting is a adrenaline filled mix of kayaking and white water rafting. Think of it as water bumping cars. We require participants to be active and good swimmers. At the meeting point, you will be geared up with wetsuits, boots, lifejackets and helmets and driven to the start point where you will do a short walk to the river. Then, you will have short safety brief, training and you start making your way down the river. Our tour includes some cliffjumping as well. It is about 1.5 hour on the river, 4 km. Our guides can all speak English, of them Spanish and French as well. For safety purposes, guests under the age of 12 and over 65 cannot participate. If you are excluded and you think you can participate, please let us know.

When no one showed up at pick up, we messaged and promptly received a cancellation by the vendor. A real shame as it was a beautiful day in Kochi.
