The rafting and canyon were amazing, but the organization was poor. We were told to be at the pick-up spot at 8:15, but ended up waiting 30 minutes, then another 20 minutes at each stop. The driver didn’t speak much English, so we were left confused about the delays. Once we reached the base, we waited almost two hours to be guided and ended up joining a different group. The activities didn’t start until 12:00, and the rafting didn’t begin until 1:15, causing a five-hour delay. While the activities were fun, the poor coordination made the day frustrating.

The wait for the tour to begin was much longer than expected. Also, it wasn't clear what type of footwear was needed, which would have been helpful to know. However, once we started rafting, it was an enjoyable experience. The jeep safari was also a lot of fun.

We made the decision to book this trip just the evening before I’m so glad we did it, as the rafting experience was both thrilling and fun. The clear, cold blue water was a perfect way to cool off in the heat. Both the rafting and the canyon offered breathtaking views. I highly recommend this experience.
