Urubamba River Whitewater Rafting

Day 1 Urubamba River

Early in the morning we will pick you up from your hotel in Cusco and drive for one hour south  through the Andes to the town of Urcos, the starting point of our adventure.  Here you will receive your safety briefing and equipment as well as  a brief practice in the flat parts of the river before some class II and III rapids over the next three hours.  Arrive to the village of San Salvador and enjoy our picnic lunch on the riverside and after a well-deserved rest, we will drive back to Urcos Lake (1.5 hour drive) to set up our camp and spend the night under the Andean sky scattered by restless stars.

Day 2 Class IV Rapids. Return to Cusco

After breakfast, we will drive for 45 minutes to the starting point of our second day adventure.  Here we have the opportunity to raft some fantastic and challenging class IV rapids, a fast and wild ride of 12 kms.  We will then enjoy our picnic lunch on the riverside and then transfer back to Cusco.
