You step onto the muddy riverbank as morning light slices through the valley — the Kiulu River hurries past like a dare, riffing over boulders and shallow drops. Paddles click, guides check life vests, and a single raft slips into the current; later the same day you’ll trade spray for dust, thundering along narrow tracks on an ATV beside rice paddies and low rainforest.
