“We had fun!! The water level is low at the moment and this created an increased workload for the amazing team of blokes who were guiding our group. Don’t expect waterfalls, but be prepared for a wonderful experience through a beautiful canyon. There are gorgeous swimming spots and the water temperature was lovely the day we were there. Thank you again to the brilliant team of blokes who ensured that everyone had a wonderful fun filled experience.”

Lovely walk up to the waterfalls and opportunity to take a cold dip. Next we travelled to the canyon and took a walk / swim through the gorge. This was a great experience. Next we had a traditional lunch which again was great experience. We didn’t stop at the rakia village which if we are honest we don’t feel as we missed out as had a long day anyway but check out the other tours on offer without the rakia…”
