The Experience

Before You Go

Wear secure water shoes

Closed, grippy water shoes protect toes during rafting and provide traction on muddy buggy trails.

Bring sunscreen and a hat

Exposed canyon rims and buggy segments offer limited shade—reapply sunscreen after rafting.

Hydrate before and after rafting

Carry a refillable bottle for the transfer van; physical exertion and sun can dehydrate quickly.

Keep valuables dry

Use a small dry bag or leave phones in the transfer vehicle—rafts and ziplines increase the chance of water or drops.
