The activity was a lot of fun and especially suitable for a group looking for a relaxed, fun time on the water. The rapids weren't too challenging, but they were fun.
Our guide, Lorenz, was incredibly accommodating, had a good laugh, and took great pictures.
Excellent value for money.
We (8 people) highly recommend the tour.
