Stop! Forward! Inside! 8km rafting!

We had so much fun! 🤩 It was an amazing experience and it added to our time in Chiang Mai the right amount of Fun and excitement! Very easy to book in: we just organised our 8km rafting day through WhatsApp, directly with 8adventure staff. They organise the pick up and the return directly from and to your stay. They accept both cashless and cash payment, preferably cash as they are literally in the heart of the jungle so to avoid surprises better take cash with you. They provide coffee/tea on arrival, nice Thai lunch after your experience, shower, towels and equipment (in our case helmets, life jackets). And that’s should be pretty much it. The price per person is 2500 THB, and includes transportation as mentioned above, water, lunch, basic insurance and the equipment for your activity. Additional 500 THB per group (we were 4 people) if you want to collect your photos afterwards (only rafting includes photographers).

Amazing experience!

Highlight of our holiday! Very well organised, felt very safe. We almost couldn’t go because of heavy rain, but we managed to delay a couple of days and did 8km instead of the 10km. Such brilliant rapids.

Beautiful raft tour that is well cared for!

Well organized rafting trip! Nicely picked up, good explanation and then on the water. Because it had rained and it was not safe, we could not do certain parts, but they had very good solutions and alternatives for that.. and so after a piece of sporty and equally well-legged rafting also floated in the water next to the boat and floated along with the current past the elephants. The highlight was when an elephant decided to walk through the river to the other side right in front of us! That was really enjoyable! Afterwards, the towels were ready and we could shower (soap and shampoo were also ready) and we got lunch. During the rafting the safety was closely monitored, on the more exciting parts employees also stood aside to possibly intervene. A kayak also sailed for safety. We were neatly picked up and also brought back. In short, more than worth the money!

Fantastic Rafting Experience! ⭐

We had a fantastic rafting experience! Everything was flawlessly organized from start to finish, and the whole team was incredibly friendly, professional, and full of positive energy. The guides made us feel safe while ensuring everyone had a great time. The rafting itself was a lot of fun, and the photos turned out absolutely amazing - they're wonderful memories of an unforgettable day. We highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for an exciting outdoor adventure. We'd happily come back and do it again!

If your looking to do something exciting please book this.

This was a fantastic experience, everything went smoothly and was well organised. We booked the day before the activity and within 30 minutes had WhatsApp communication letting us know what we had to bring and confirming our pick up location. Everything down to the registration of the transport in the morning. The showers were clean and hot, the food was brilliant, the guides were knowledgeable and let us know what to do and when we had to do it. I can’t express how good this was. If your looking to do something exciting please book this.
