How to prepare for rafting? What you want to know!

What to wear 

Avoid wearing cotton. Instead wear quick dry shorts/bathing suit. Wear a quick dry shirt for both comfort and sun protection. Wear sturdy footwear such as sneakers, water shoes, wetsuit booties or sandals with straps but not flip-flops. Apply suntan lotion but not oil before getting on the bus! 

What to bring 

Any medications you may need while on the river. For example rescue inhaler or EpiPen. 

What to leave in your car or at home 

Don’t bring expensive or sentimental jewelry or sunglasses. Leave your wallet and wedding ring in the car. Don’t bring your phone. Our photographers will be sure to snap great pictures of you anyway. And it should go without saying do not bring drugs or alcohol rafting. You need to be alert for your own safety and that of your crew. 

What to have at hand after your trip 

Dry clothes and a towel. We have hot showers. Some cash to shop for souvenirs in our store and to tip your guide. You will work up an appetite rafting so bring a picnic or some cash to eat at one of the wonderful local restaurants. There are also two great craft beer breweries nearby if you want a cold one after rafting.
