재미있고 특색있는 경험
매우 재밌었습니다. 7m 폭포에서 떨어지는 색다른 경험을 해서 매우 만족합니다. 중간에 수영도 하고 노는데 10월에도 물은 많이 차가웠지만 즐거웠어요 !

Amazing Time with Josh
We had an amazing time rafting. Josh was a first class guide and made the experience highly enjoyable - even the big drop 😂. Totally recommend this.

The ultimate white-water adventure
Kaituna Cascades gave us an absolutely unforgettable adventure on the river. From start to finish, the entire experience was thrilling. The professionalism and energy of our guides Dan, Josh, and Blue, made all the difference. They were fun, knowledgeable, and engaging, ensuring that everyone in the raft felt confident while also having the time of their lives. The grade 5 rapids delivered a massive adrenaline rush, and the highlight of the trip—tackling the famous waterfall, was an experience I’ll never forget. It was equal parts heart-pounding and exhilarating, and the way the guides prepared and supported us made it even more enjoyable. If you’re looking for the ultimate rafting adventure, this is the company to go with. Kaituna Cascades strikes the perfect balance between safety, professionalism, and pure fun. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
