Very much in the jungle but an INCREDIBLE experience. We did a 2night, 3day trip and it genuinely was quite an experience! First day we were picked up from our hotel and transferred to the river. Be aware, you take what you need for a couple of days only and your big bags will be reunited with you at the end. Sun cream, bug spray, water bottles, wet clothes/shoes, dry clothes, walking boots and jungle night time clothes are a must. We hadn’t white water rafted before and were happy to be in a boat with a family for the whole experience, aka it felt super safe while being amazingly good fun. Rafting into the lodge was easy and lasted about 2hrs. The lodge is in the jungle, amazing views, pools to swim in, food and service was excellent - I did find it quite challenging with spiders, snakes, bats etc but I didn’t even get a mosquito bite. Day 2 was an idilic day reading and enjoying the hammocks while others in the group went on walks and took advantage of the zip lines. Day 3 stole the show for me. After feeling very nervous about the 3/4 rapids, I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT! Safe, assured, the guides knew the river and we worked with them to make sure we got the most from it.
I would highly recommend this trip, be adventurous and these guys make it a safe and exciting trip!
