More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The morning light on Telaga Waja slices through a canopy of coconut and rainforest as rafts push off into a river that seems to want to hurry you along. You launch from a zipline perch, clip into a harness, and drop into a corridor of stone cliffs, green fields and tumbling water: the river takes over, alternating calm eddies with punchy class 3–4 rapids.

Reserve your spot on the Telaga Waja River Rafting & Zipline (BCR) (Private Transfer) today and enjoy a trusted, highly rated experience designed to help you make the most of your adventure.
Bring a secure waterproof camera
Phones and cameras get plunged—use a wrist strap or waterproof housing to capture the waterfalls and jumps safely.
Wear closed water shoes
Rocks and boat floors are slippery; sturdy water shoes improve traction for entering/exiting rafts and the 4m jump.
Stay hydrated and light
Tropical sun plus paddling will dehydrate you—drink water before launch and avoid heavy meals right before the trip.
Listen to your guide
Guides coordinate paddling, commands and rescue procedures—follow instructions immediately during rapids and at rest stops.
Closed-toe water shoes
Protects feet on slippery rocks and gives grip while boarding and jumping.
Quick-dry clothing & swim layers
Lightweight, fast-drying fabrics keep you comfortable after long exposure to spray and sun.
