About This Tour

About This Tour

Nepal has some of the best white water rafting in the world — rivers that drop from the Himalayas through deep gorges, creating rapids ranging from gentle Class II floats to extreme Class V challenges. Our rafting trips run on two rivers: the Trisuli (Class III), which is perfect for first-timers and families, and the Bhote Koshi (Class IV-V), which delivers the intense white water that experienced rafters seek.

The experience goes beyond the rapids: camping on a sandy riverbank, cooking dinner over an open fire, sleeping under the stars in a gorge — this is one of Nepal’s most complete adventure experiences. Our safety-trained guides carry years of experience on these rivers and all equipment meets international safety standards.
