Day 1Cusco to Apurímac River Rafting Adventure

Start your 3-day Apurímac River rafting adventure in Peru with a hotel pickup in Cusco at 08:30, followed by a scenic five-hour drive through the Andes to Huallpachaca Bridge (6,562 ft), the launch point for your white water rafting tour on the Apurímac River. Along the way, enjoy breathtaking Andean landscapes as you descend into the impressive Apurímac Canyon, one of the most dramatic rafting destinations in Peru.

Upon arrival, enjoy a hearty lunch before preparing for your first rafting experience. Your expert guide will provide a comprehensive safety briefing, covering essential skills such as re-entering the raft, flipping safely, swimming through rapids, and a river rescue drill to build confidence before tackling the rapids.

Once prepared, begin paddling down the Apurímac River, navigating class II and III rapids while taking in the canyon’s stunning scenery. Your first 1.5-hour rafting session introduces you to the river’s energy and the dramatic surroundings of the Andean gorge.

As the afternoon concludes, reach a calm section of riverbank where you’ll set up camp for your first night. Surrounded by nature, narrow gorges, and towering canyon walls, enjoy a campfire dinner prepared by your guides—an unforgettable start to your 3-day Peru rafting adventure.
