This is one double whammy of a white water experience! First off you will tackle the rapids in a 14 foot inflatable raft, you will fly down the steep, rocky course during an exhilarating and adrenalin fuelled taster session. Next up is the Orca Adventure which provides a unique opportunity to experience the thrill of white water rafting in a custom built Eurocraft Orca two-man inflatable raft. The Orca's provide the ultimate thrill for people who are looking for a cross between whitewater rafting and canoeing. The Orca's give you the chance to be in control of the raft and to negotiate the rapids yourself, but don't worry, there will be a qualified guide alongside in a kayak to help and offer you some expert advice. An amazing full day experience that will definitely hit the spot of all adrenalin seekers!
