Epic option for a half day trip! Incredible river with fun rapids and lovely guides. They take a few pics and videos so you have some images as keepsake, and were able to facilitate in English. There is the option to swim in the river and shoot one of the rapids clinging to the outside of the raft! Decent equipment and professional approach, timing estimate was relatively accurate. Nice also to experience the scenery on the way out to the volcano if you don’t have a car. I would recommend the afternoon slot as the mountain and surrounds can be hidden by clouds in the morning and early afternoon. Short beer and fresh pizza slice afterward was a nice touch. Excellent value for money!

Good equipment, good vibe, life jacket, helmet, and wetsuit. Rich water, not so icy, crystal clear. Quicks are great even for newbies. Bathrooms and dressing rooms at the base and in the river. I totally recommend.

Amazing rafting experience in Puerto Varas! We had such a good time with our guides, who took care of all details. Wetsuits, with booties, helmets, life jackets were all provided. Bring a change of clothes because you WILL get wet and you’ll love it.

Great value - especially compared to ones we did in argentina. Go at the front for the best experience. Very goof safety - full briefing and 2 safety kayaks Then offered photography - but the whole group had to pay, not just those who wanted it (it was either we all got it, or no-one did)

We had a fantastic time with Franco as our guide. It was fun and exhilarating, and we always felt safe. Our only wish was that we could have spent more time on the river, but the value for the price was outstanding!

Very fun rafting guides!! The rafting time was a little short, but the rapids were wonderful! I like that they extended the trip by adding a time for “very small cliff” jumping. The photographer was really great and affordable for digital photos.
