About this tour

You'll navigate grade II–III whitewater through jungle gorges and past waterfalls, paddling past limestone cliffs and dense vegetation. A professional guide leads the charge, handling safety and technique while you focus on the rush. Hotel pickup and drop-off bookend the day, and a riverside lunch with river views follows the paddle. Suits most fitness levels, though medical restrictions apply.

What to expect

You'll start with a hotel pickup, then head to the Ayung River base where guides brief you on paddle technique and safety. After gearing up, you'll push off into fast-moving water flanked by high canyon walls. The two-hour paddle involves steady paddling through chutes and around boulders—exertion but not extreme technical skill needed. Between rapids, you'll float past hanging vines and listen to the jungle. Afterwards, towel off, change, and settle in for a spread of local and international dishes overlooking the water. The whole outing runs roughly five hours door-to-door.

Good to know

Spinal injuries, pregnancy, and poor cardiovascular health rule this one out. Bring a second pair of shoes or go barefoot; river shoes soak through. Insurance is included. Soft drinks aren't part of the package—bring cash for extras. Water temperature is warm year-round.
