2 DAY RAFTING EXPEDITION AT THE SOURCES OF THE AMAZON

Embark on a world-class rafting expedition on the Apurimac River. Navigate powerful rapids, explore remote landscapes and enjoy an authentic camping experience in the heart of the Andes.

2 DAY RAFTING EXPEDITION AT THE SOURCES OF THE AMAZON

Take your adventurous spirit to the fullest on a unique rafting expedition on the Apurimac River, considered one of the best rafting destinations in South America and the main source of the Amazon.

The trip begins very early in Cusco with private transportation to the spectacular Apurímac canyon. Upon arrival, our internationally certified (IRF/ACA) professional guides will provide a complete safety talk and paddling practice so everyone is prepared.

During the navigation you will face exciting class IV & V rapids, surrounded by imposing granite walls, intact nature and imposing Andean landscapes. Between rapids you can swim, relax and enjoy the wild environment.

At the end of the first day, we arrive at a beautiful beach where our team sets up a comfortable camp next to the river. You will enjoy snacks, hot drinks and a delicious dinner around the campfire under a sky full of stars.

The second day begins with fresh coffee and breakfast before continuing the adventure down the river, crossing more intense rapids until we reach the Cunyac Bridge, the end point of the expedition, then we comfortably return to Cusco.

This experience is ideal for adventurous travelers looking for adrenaline, connection with nature and a real river expedition.
