3-day apurimac river rafting adventure

This white water trip through the Andes is considered one of the 10 best rafting experiences in the world.

The Apurimac originates from high in the Andes Mountains before eventually joining the Amazon River, and as it's the Amazon's most direct source it's considered the longest river on the planet. On this trip you'll spend 3 exhilarating days following it through stunning mountain landscapes where you can encounter wildlife such as river otters, foxes, torrent ducks, cormorants, and even the emblematic condor, along the way you'll navigate class III+ and IV rapids, and in certain sections class IV+ and V rapids. Our expert class V guides will be on hand the whole time to ensure your safely and of course to take photos of your adventure! With 2 nights of camping beneath the stars, there's no better way to immerse yourself in the beauty of the Andes.

This renowned rafting adventure offers a superb combination of thrill-seeking and Andean nature.
