Overview

If you like whitewater rafting but prefer the individual control of kayaking or standup paddleboarding, you might like “river bugging,” the latest in water fun. River bugs are inflatable armchair-like watercraft that act as personal raft and can be used all year since they require lower water levels. Play in the river under the instruction of a local guide on this fun, scenic tour.

Fun but too short

Sophie_C, Jul 2021

Fun trip however more time was spent hanging around rather than doing rapids. When booking the trip it said it was from 1pm - 4Pm however we finished before 3pm. Good instructors but too many people in the group.
