You step off an air‑conditioned van into a humid canyon of palms and mahogany, the Great River hissing ahead like a restless neighbor. Guides sling oars across a handcrafted 30‑foot bamboo raft and the river takes you, slow and confident, past limestone banks that have weathered centuries of rain and coral uplift.

3–4 hours.
Suitable for most fitness levels; requires ability to sit on low raft benches and step on/off at shallow banks.
Rafting typically lasts 60–90 minutes; some groups extend to 90–120 minutes if full‑body massages are added.
The limestone paste is a natural exfoliant applied to hands and feet; inform your guide of any skin sensitivities—full‑body treatments are optional and may have an extra cost.

If river levels rise due to heavy rain, operators may modify the route or end where you started for safety; tours can be canceled with short notice in severe weather and are refundable if canceled at least 24 hours in advance.
Bamboo rafting here grew from riverine transport practices and local ingenuity; the Great River has supported settlements and agriculture for generations.
