The full Nile experience
Grade 5 Rafting
Our flagship trip starts just 20 minutes outside Jinja town. After the safety briefing we push out above 'Jaws', a big-volume grade 2+ rapid that gets everyone wet, then work our way down roughly 20km of river, taking out below Hair of the Dog. Big, clean, warm-water whitewater with deep pools between each rapid and a full safety team of kayakers and rescue rafts. No experience needed.
