Nepal is the one of the excellent places in the world for white water rafting and kayaking. We offer outstanding river journeys ranging from big-volume classic wilderness expeditions to steep, adrenaline action-packed river runs. Boasting a subtropical climate with pleasant warm waters and fine pristine white sandy beaches add to the unique and special appeal of rafting in Nepal.
Our team is utterly dedicated to safety and all our equipment is of top state-of-the-art quality. We are proud to be able to promote and share our beautiful country with you and safely guide you down some of the best white water rivers of the world. Whether you are looking for adrenalin fused river adventure or a surreal river float surrounded by Nepal’s outstanding nature, we can happily make it happen. The memories of a moonrise over the river and the friends you make will give you a delightful experience. River trips are much more then gravity-powered roller coaster rides; they are liquid journeys traversed on very special highways.
Join us and we will give you an unforgettable, once in a lifetime experience.
