Phuket Adventure Day: 7km White-Water Rafting, Zipline & Waterfall Trek
Trade a beach morning for seven kilometres of river, a jungle zipline and a waterfall swim. This full-day from Phuket blends white-water bursts with cultural stops like Monkey Cave and a riverside Thai lunch.
The Experience
Before You Go
Secure footwear
Wear closed, fastened water shoes or sandals with straps—slick rocks and raft footrests demand grip.
Hydration and sun
Bring a reusable water bottle and reef-safe sunscreen; tropical sun and humidity can dehydrate you quickly.
Expect variable rapids
River conditions change with rainfall—listen to guides, follow commands and keep toes tucked during rapids.
Protect valuables
Use a small dry bag or waterproof phone case provided or bring your own; phones and cameras get wet here.

Conservation Note
Operators often limit group sizes and provide lifejackets to reduce riverbank erosion and minimize impact; follow guides and carry out plastics to protect freshwater habitats.
Suwankuha (Monkey Cave) has long been a local worship site; the cave temple and reclining Buddha reflect regional Buddhist practices tied to riverine communities.
