Cagayan De Oro Whitewater Rafting


Recommended Posts

I enjoyed it last year in April. Sorry, but I forgot the name of the company we used. A friend just booked us the package. But there is a lot of room for improvement. I hope the CDO guys don't mind my saying. Or maybe pass on the feedback to the rafting companies.

 

I tried the white water rafting in Bali. The pre-rafting instructions in Indonesia were way way better preparation for us than what we had in CDO, despite the broken english. First of all, the instructions were given by raft, and not to the whole group. So, the guide/handler of the raft gave it just to his passengers. We had instructions not just on rowing. We also had a small drill on leaning to the left, and to the right. We also had instructions on "brace", and over all, more instructions on safety. As a matter of fact, our guide in CDO took a turn way too fast and when we "kissed the wall", the raft had a tear on the front. It was a good thing that it was towards the end of the ride and no one was injured or I would have been really pissed.

 

Still overall, because of the company of friends and the scenery, we enjoyed the ride. But there must be away to monitor the quality of the guides.

tnx for that zeromike! though i have some other queries still. i assume your from a rafting group/company, may i know which one so if ever we would book with you. can you give an idea how much it cost for the advance course? can this be run also by beginners, i read from the net that beginners course is to lame for the adventure freaks. does it require more technical knowledge of the course or you really have to know more skill in paddling, etc.? please shed some light in this. me and wifey are both excited to go. so we want to make sure that everything will go smoothly. can u also recommend a good accomodation that is clean but not so pricey. tnx in a million!

Guy, my friends and I are coming to CDO on the 1st week of September and white water rafting is one of our itinerary. This might be a stupid question but I don't know anything about rafting - safe ba ito kung some of us do not know how to swim?
