Itinerary
2 Hour Session - Including kitting up and a safety briefing
The two main components of white water rafting are the rafts themselves and personal safety equipment. First and foremost, you need to choose the right class of white water based on your age.
Whatever your previous experience, you will be assigned a professional guide whose role is to determine the best route, ensure you know how to paddle and instruct you how to stay safe on white water course.
As part of your white water rafting equipment, you would be given paddles, wetsuits and helmets, as well as buoyancy aids. All coaching and specialist equipment is provided.
Families and younger children can opt for the less challenging rapids, where they would be able to guide the raft through the white water at a leisurely pace, since the moving water is generally flat and very little steering is required.
We offer white water rafting for families looking for a day of fun suitable for rafters as young as age 6. With lowered water level and rapid speed, this two hour white water rafting adventure is guaranteed include laughs, shrieks and a good soaking.
We offer white water rafting sessions year-round, whatever the weather. The courses last approximately two hours.
The white water rafting sessions at Cardiff International White Water cost £65 per person. We also offer the reduced water speed Family White Water Rafting experience at £35pp.
