I went on the rafting experience yesterday with 5 others. We're all on a week's group fitness holiday in Croatia and chose to do the rafting. We all loved the tour with our wonderful guide / captain Ante! 😁
First of all, everything was perfectly organised, easy and on time.
Secondly, the rafting is good with easy fun currents, some more interesting drops and currents through rocks and the big "bomba" with a big splash and great fun factor. All this interspersed with paddling through beautiful scenery in clear waters with plenty of fish and turtles sunning themselves on the riverbank.
Then, quite rightly it's called an experience and not just rafting. Apart from the rafting we climbed through a waterfall, swam in very cold water through a small cave, climbed up through the cave and along a canyon. Elsewhere we could jump from a 5 meter high rock into the river. All of this is optional and not everyone in the same raft has to do it but it was a fantastic experience. We also had the option to swim in the river.
Most importantly, people make or break the whole experience. A very special "thank you" goes to our guide / captain Ante. He's absolutely charming, witty, funny in the nicest possible way, helpful and interesting. Ante is a gem and a true asset to this rafting company.
After 2.5 hours the experience ended with a little walnut brandy and we returned to the hotel a very happy bunch of people.
