FULL DAY WHITE WATER RAFTING (3 Days 2 Nights Jinja Uganda Safari Experience)

The White Nile has up to seven times the volume of the Zambezi. It thunders between heavily forested islands and then leaps widely into a series of spectacular drops. You will plunge into the rapids and ride the mountainous waves downstream whilst relaxing and swimming in warm pools in the equatorial sunshine during parts of the trip. This is white water rafting at its best!
You will be given an introduction before departing with large rubber boats taking eight people and a guide. A safety boat is accompanying you all throughout the trip so you can enjoy the thrill and exhilaration of world-class white water rafting in the security of knowing that you are in the safest hands.
The river is full of grade five rapids so be prepared to hold your breath when plunging into the rapids! Besides the adrenaline rush the rural scenery along with the river side’s make for an exhilarating day. A delicious buffet lunch on a private island in the middle of the Nile will be served. At the end of the rafting trip, you will meet your Ikaze Rwanda guide again who will pick you and drive you back to your hotel. This evening you will meet your park ranger who will take you on a 2hrs night game drive in search of the big cats. Return to the lodge for dinner and overnight.
