From Seattle to the World

Rotorua Rafting

NEW ZEALAND | Wednesday, 18 January 2006 | Views [152]

As were getting a quick safety training session for the whitewater rafting, Puala asked if I had been whitewater rafting before.  Unlike Sachi, I had not.  Paula, one of our guides whispered to me with a devious look in her eye "don't worry we'll pop your cherry gently."  I suppose it was gently considering the part of the Kaitunu  that we did was a class 5 rapid and at 21 feet, has the highest commercially rafted waterfall in the world. Gently indeed.

 

 

 

This is river surfing..

 

We went with Raftabout, in Rotorua, which is one a few companies that do the Kaituna.  The cost was $75 NZ per person, plus pictures. We enjoyed the folks and certainly the trip with Raftabout.
