The only two rivers that require any previous rafting experience are the Perth and Karamea rivers. In these cases, if you have a high fitness level and are a strong swimmer, no previous rafting experience is required.

All the higher grade rivers have walk around options on the bigger rapids, so if someone in your group is not comfortable with a certain section, it is not a problem, we will walk them around the bigger rapids and they can cheer the others through.

Our family rafting and scenic floats have only small gentle rapids. Talk to Josh and he will match a river to suit your wants and needs.
