The Double run: two days of rafting just west of Quito. Spend the night at a country inn alongside the river.
On this whitewater rafting trip, you can expect both the action of thrilling whitewater and the tranquility of drifting silently through tropical rainforests. So while you’re guaranteed to get wet, you’ll also have the opportunity to be absorbed by the sounds of the forest and to see wildlife up close from our mobile “viewing platform”.

Day 1.
|
Before taking off, we will fit you with life jackets and helmets, give you a comprehensive safety briefing and train each crew in the paddling techniques needed to navigate our way down the river.
|
The total rafting time is approx. 3½ hrs. (Note: From March to May we usually run the upper Blanco river – 43km, approx. 4½ hrs). |
During the trip, we’ll stop by the side of the river for a delicious picnic lunch including fresh tropical fruits, served with soft drinks, juice and water. At the end of the trip, we celebrate a fun day on the river with a few ice cold beers and return to our hosteria alongside the river - the sound of the waters a constant reminder of our adventure.
|
In the afternoon, there’ll be time to hike in the surrounding rainforest or just relax by the pool. In the evening we can relive our experiences as we enjoy a delicious dinner and a few celebratory drinks.
