Beginner's Rafting Down Samaná River

Looking for a day full of adventure in Antioquia? Learn how to raft as you go down Samaná River and enjoy a perfect view of the Colombian jungle!

Description

We'll pick you up from your hotel in Medellin and journey south to San Luis, located in the Antioquia region.

Upon reaching the city's central park, we'll transition to our off-roading vehicle to reach the forest. Once there, we'll take a picturesque hike along a stunning canyon, lasting approximately 40 minutes to an hour.

Our hike will culminate at a riverside location, where we'll dive into the thrill of rafting on the Samaná River. Outfitted with safety helmets and vests, we'll navigate the exhilarating waters aboard an inflatable raft.

As we descend through these turbulent waters for approximately 3 to 4 hours, we'll cover a distance of 2.5 kilometers (1.5 miles). Along this route, be prepared to confront big waves, swirling whirlpools, and thrilling rapids.

Our rafting escapade on the Samaná River will conclude in a tranquil spot where we'll enjoy a picnic lunch featuring sausages and an array of fresh, locally sourced fruits.

We'll return to San Luis after lunch by off-roading vehicle, switch transportation, return to Medellin, and drop you off at your hotel about 9 hours after pickup.
