Context: me adult male 49, son 15 years old. Classic rafting, full day.
Thanks to all the team, staff, crews and guides at propulsion Rafting. my son and I had a blast. Centre: clean, well equipped for all needs and additional bits like wet suits, shoes, anything needed to make it safe and comfortable – and nice morning coffee. Easily accessible by road. Staff at the centre are friendly, knowledgeable and efficient (no time lost !). Guide was very friendly, experienced and professional. could handle the boat, the rapids and the guest tourists :). River: Rafting Classic, 8 person boat, two x 2hrs each trip (one in morning one in afternoon.Scenery and river are very nice. We came in August so river is at lowest (and warmest) of the season but speed / volume less than early spring season (35). But we still had great twists and turns and rapids to deal with and lots of action IN the water! which is why we went!. If you are looking for more challenging extreme sports sensations and tough water conditions, the river is worth the try, but come earlier in season and check the level of water on line before booking. We will come back early July next year for bigger swells. Also, if you can come with a crew of friends that are basically the same level/ experience, and looking for same adrenaline buzz, share the same vision of the sport, it will be better for everyone. The guide and crew can then really take you places! River is same for everyone, but you can take in on and experience it in many different ways – so depending on the people in the boat, you can take on swells in a more adventurous way or more family friendly way (the guides to their credit are very attentive to the level and wishes of the clients in boat). We did a full day and were happy to sit back in the early evening around the pool and jacuuzzi and lounge for a few beers, good barbecue and meet the staff and other participants. Definitely recommend and will come back for more. Recommendation: I would suggest the guide spend more time at beginning explaining the security requirements and that before we hit the rapids all visitors get a real taste of the water by doing capsizing exercises and how to get in out of boat from the water, how to take care of yourself once you fall in the water etc. it will get everyone in right mood and also teach the basics and help everyone have a more enjoyable outting. Thanks again – John & Scott
