Rafting 3D / 2N: Why Go
Some of the best rivers for White Water rafting in South America are in the mountains surrounding Cusco, so if you want to give it a try this is the place!.The Apurimac River is world famous for white water, with rapids from Class I up to adrenaline pumping Class V. The scenery is spectacular; much of the route runs through the Apurimac Canyon - rumored to be the deepest canyon in the world! Each night you camp on beaches by the side of the river, from such a remote location the starry sky at night is breath-taking.
Level I: Really easy without any risk, we just let the stream take us down.
Level II: Stream with some waves and small rocks.
Level III: Stream, rocks, holes, waves (enjoyable).
Level IV: Stream, rocks, holes with more gradient or more volume of water with a little bit of risk. For this level, it's not necessary to have a safety kayak with the group.
Level V: Stronger and more enjoyable than the class IV with an element of risk, maximum commercial rafting level. For these rapids it's necessary to have a safety kayak with the group.
Please Note: this trip is only available during the dry season approximately from April to November. These dates are subject to change depending on the exact timing of the wet and dry seasons.
