Jinja White Water Rafting Day Tour
White Water Rafting
White water rafting in Uganda is done in Jinja on the great River Nile which is Africa’s longest river; starts in Uganda and pours its water into the Mediterranean Sea. There are 5 major rafts which range between grade 2 and grade 5 rafts. It is such an exciting activity and is usually done by the brave or those who wish to conquer their fears. Safety gears are provided like life jacket and helmet and it is done in the company of well-trained rafting guides. There are also kayakers who come along; they are there to help out rafters in case of unforeseen circumstances.
The activity starts with a briefing while in the boat; the guides will show you how to peddle while on the rafts and what to do when the boat flips over. When the boat flips, let go of the boat and move away from it and the kayakers will be there already to help you out. There is a half day and full day rafting activity. I would recommend a full day rafting activity because you get to experience a lot more. The full day activity takes between 5-6 hours. Lunch is served along the route and at the end of the activity; you are welcomed back from the thrill with some barbecue and cold Uganda beers and juice.
Your driver guide drives you to the starting point and when you get to your boat, he drives to the end point and wait for you.
