Absolutely amazing
Had an absolutely amazing run with Pablo. Would have happily carried to boat back to the start and gone again. Just such an awesome guide, and fun filled experience. Only "downside" is it ended way too soon, was having that much of a good time.

Thrill Ride on Water!
Kaituna Cascades isn’t just about rafting, it’s about the whole vibe. From the moment you arrive, you’re greeted with smiles, good energy, and a sense of adventure that’s impossible to resist. The team is super welcoming, and the atmosphere is relaxed yet buzzing with excitement. It’s the kind of place where strangers become friends, and everyone leaves with a story to tell.
