4 Days Whitewater Rafting Athi River

The section of the Athi River that we run borders Tsavo National Park to the east.
In many ways, this river is unique. Wonderful scenery, a multitude of wild-life, hugely varied and spectacular bird-life, coupled with the best of medium grade white water river, makes for a truly unforgettable experience.
