Rafting has long been plagued by the myth that it is dangerous, extreme and only for adrenaline junkies. Rafting is our profession, so we take it seriously. We are serious about safety, about good food, good times and serious about fun! We offer trips to suit all ages and abilities – it is not about fitness, it is about fun. Our youngest client to date was 6 years old, and our most mature was a 73 year old blind chap, who did a 7-day Zambezi trip! (He was not into the scenery, but loved getting wet).

Your safety is our number one priority on and off the river. Without exception we believe in safety kayakers on all trips. In addition, on our more challenging trips we utilize a safety cataraft. Our biggest safety feature are our world-class, certified, professional guides – you will appreciate the difference that they make.

We have a comprehensive first aid kit and all our guides are trained in Wilderness First Aid. We also carry satellite phones on all of our trips and we were the first rafting company to do this. Safety also includes hygienically prepared food, hand-wash set ups at the toilet and kitchen as well as expedition water filters to provide you with clean water on your adventure.

With our enviable safety record we are at the forefront of the white-water industry with our constant training and innovative safety procedures.

Travel Insurance For Your Adventure

While we take every precaution on our rafting and sailing trips, accidents can happen, which is why we require all participants to have a Medical Evacuation & Repatriation policy in the unlikely event you get sick or hurt. These policies also cover you in the  event of you being unable to make your trip through sickness or illness.

For those of you on rafting trips, your policy must cover you up to the Grade river that you are rafting. Please contact us if you require clarification on this.

We have a dedicated page outlining Travel Insurance for your trip, but as a quick reference:

USA & North American Guests: Global Rescue
