The Urubamba River Rafting – Ollantaytambo tour starts when we pick you up from your hotel at 9 am and then take one of the most scenic drives through the Andean Mountains passing charming villages, farms and lagoons. While snow caped mountains range dominates the view to the west, you can see the impressive 6271 meters – 20574.15 foot high Salkantay mountain. Continuing on, we will enter the scenic overlooks of the Sacred Valley, including Inca ruins until we arrive to the beginning of the rafting tour.
Before the adventure starts, your river guide will give a safety briefing and demonstrate rafting commands and safety procedures. It will take a few minutes to practice everything learned in the safety briefing, and once, when everyone is ready it’s time to start rafting!
