Rafting & Seilrutsche Urubamba River 1 Tag

Wonderfully organised white water rafting and zip wire day. Jaun Carlos clearly communicated pick up instructions., was very informative on the journey to the camp and did a good safety briefing. The camp itself was great with excellent facilities. Some Equipment is getting old but perfectly functional. 3 course lunch was superb. The white water rafting was superb and a real thrill. We were lucky to get 2 category 4 sections in the many rapids. I’ve white water rafted before elsewhere including Colorado and although beautiful scenery on my other raft experiences this was by far the best. It’s a real family adventure. We were a group of 8 ultra sporty people from the same gym most of which also compete in Hyrox, iron man and long course and high altitude trekking but 2 of us had to Join a Dutch family who had kids age approx 9 & 11 and they were able to take part in the activity without it being toned down for them…we couldn’t fault this trip at all.

Unbelievable experience. The river scenery is remarkably beautiful throughout the valley. Very boutique and intimate experience unlike many US raft trips.

Had a great day, facilities and staff were all so friendly and super professional, Very considerate as I was a single female with 13 year old daughter.

Amazing, so much fun. In our small group we felt very safe and the mounted gopro on the raft gave us some superb photos Highly recommend

Excellent I will always recommend them.

Juan Carlo was a great guide! It was just my husband and I since it was low season but Juan Carlo led us through a great rafting trip. The facilities were great and lunch was delicious.

Amerigo of the Mayuc rafting company was our guide for our daylong zip line and rafting experience. He met us at our hotel and walked us to where the van was parked. Cesar drove us to the lodge, which was about 2 hours away, on the other side of Urcos. We ziplined first, across the river and back. Each trip was quick but enjoyable. We did it first because it was the rainy season, and when it rains in the Cusco area, one event comes through in the early afternoon. By the way, the rainy season should not be ignored in the area near Cusco, for rafting or any other activity. Do not be deterred by the term, “rainy season.” It means there likely will be a shower or storm each day, usually coinciding with lunch. Because it was the “rainy season” but a relatively dry one so far, our trip consisted of mostly Class 2 and 3 rapids, with a couple that bordered on Class 4. This was perfect for us, as it was the first-time trip for our son. The amazing thing to me was that even though there were only two of us, I counted at least 4, maybe 5, people working at the lodge who helped make our day a safe success. Amerigo could not have been a better guide. Cesar, our driver who also made our good lunch, got us there and back conveniently. There was a safety guide in a one person raft who accompanied us down the river. I observed at least one woman helping with lunch and preparing the nice sauna we took after rafting. I felt bad that we were the only two people there. Take advantage of the smaller crowds of the “rainy season” and come to this magical part of Peru. And when you do, the team at Mayuc will give you a fun and enjoyable experience.

We did this excursion while in Cusco. The lodge is nice and the food after rafting was good. The rafting while good was way shorter than expected. The full day tour ended up with only an hour of rafting. While the rapids were fun we were expecting a longer river trip. The views are great and our guide Anderson was also great. Don't let the zipline part fool you. It is only one line that runs across the river by the lodge.

What an amazing way to see this beautiful mountain landscape! We had a blast with our guides and fellow visitors on the river. Pro instructions, equipment and sense of security as we took on the level 2-3 rapids. Wonderful lunch, soothing sauna and thrilling zip line. Don’t miss this one!

This was the most fun that my wife and I had during our 11 days in the Cusco area. All the guests were beginners but our guide, Santiago, gave very clear instructions and we all felt safe throughout the ride. The homecooked soup and chicken for lunch were delicious.
