behind the photo.

A half-day trip putting in upstream and paddling back toward town through the karst valley. Most operators combine it with a cave or a lagoon stop. The water is gentle in the dry season and genuinely fast after heavy rain.

Good to know.

Ask the operator directly what the river level is doing before you book in the wet season. Everything you carry will get wet.

Bring along.

  • Swimwear
  • Dry bag
  • Sunscreen
  • Shoes that can get wet
