I paid extra $40 for the photo package while booking the trip for March 21st 8:30 am session. The trip was good but I have never received the link for my photo. I emailed to them a few days after the trip and didn’t get any response. Now it is March 31st and I’ve already back to U.S. I don’t know how to get hold of them. It is very disappointing and frustrating!

Well organized and fun guides. We've done white water before where it is miles and hours of rapids. This is a flat out roller coaster ride of short calms and steep waterfalls. What a rush! "Paddle hard! Get down!! Yahoo!!!" Then that big wave crashes over the bow as we plunge down into the "washing machine" at the bottom. A truly unique brand of white water rafting with thrills usually reserved to crazy kayakers.

Definitely a must do!! The whole tour was amazing and the fact that you get pick up and dropped off at your hotel is the icing on the cake. I made new friends and survived a water fall drop haha

It was an incredible experience rafting the Kaituna River with Kaitiaki Adventures! The staff was friendly and knowledgeable. The gear was in great condition, no stinky wetsuits or flotation aids. The Guide in our boat Kyle was an absolute legend and so friendly! He navigated the rapids with skill and class. We surfed in some of the waves and got to laugh and enjoy the experience with everyone in our group! 10/10 recommend, I wish I could just do lap after lap on this beautiful river!
