Should I paddle or ride in the oarboat?
Its up to you…usually, you can do both. Paddling is an exciting, participatory way to run the river. Each boat contains about 6 paddlers plus a guide to call commands. There is a thorough explanation and practice session for paddlers before we start out. The paddle option is available provided water conditions permit.. On the oar boat, your guide does most of the work using oars. This is the way to go if you want to relax and enjoy the scenery, take photos, or appreciate a more secure ride. For a complete description, with photos, see our boats page.
