Description: All rafting trips begin in Jinja, the source of the Nile, and this is an exhilarating way to travel it! Nile River Explorers offer the best value for money “white water rafting” in Africa. Videos and CDs are available for purchase.

0930 morning
The guides give a comprehensive safety briefing, answer all questions and assist you in the fitting of lifejackets and helmets. The fun starts with a detailed river skills course which gives clients a taste of what is to come.

Rapids
We have chosen the perfect 18 kilometer stretch of the Nile River. The first few rapids are low grade (1, 2) and give you a growing sense of confidence. As the river meanders through beautiful scenery, we guide the rafts into the mighty challenges of the best “grade5″ rapids on the Nile. Eight major rapids are rafted, plus lots of lower graded runs to maximize the fun. Experience has taught us that this is the safest, highest adrenaline stretch of water, avoiding paddling any long sections giving the most satisfying day.

1200 midday
Pausing in the middle of the day for fruit and refreshments, offers a brief break from the action

1500 afternoon
To round off the adventure we serve the best rafting barbeque in Africa. The delicious food is served with free drinks on the banks of the river, and as the sun sinks low in the sky, rafters are at leisure to relive the memories of their “white water” adventure of a lifetime.
