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.
