Always confirm the experience of the guide that will take you down the river. They should be well trained and have completed many trips successfully. The best way to know is through referrals to ensure that you go with a rafting whitewater company that you know or has been recommended. Always were life jackets and pay attention to your guide. They have the experience and will tell you when to paddle when to hold on etc. Never drink prior to going on a rafting whitewater trip. Reaction time and judgment are never as good as they are once you have had a drink or two.
