There is a sense of anticipation
and anxiety in the air as you zip up your life jackets, snap
the helmet on, grab the paddles and get set for the descent.
You can feel the pulse quicken as your guide runs you through
the various manoeuvres and instructions.
And then........its time to go!
The gush of the rapids, the tantalizing swirls, lashing of
water against the raft and the adrenaline pumping through
your blood stream is what river rafting
on the Himalayas is all about. |

A sport for those fascinated by nature and
a desire to control it. An exhilarating
experience to say the least!!! GIO's River
Rafting trips run through some of the most beautiful
terrains that the Himalayas have to offer - from sandy white
beaches, boulder-studded rapids,
river confluences, deep gorges and some of the most revered
Indian temple towns.
What it takes?
Swimming is not essential and you certainly don't have to
be Mark Spitz. White water rafting is a sport almost everyone,
of any age, can enjoy. With expert guides the latest equipment,
it's quick and easy to learn the few rules that keep you safe,
river-smart and ready for a "wild ride" of your
own.
All you need to do is want to be part of this special kind
of roller coaster ride and leave the rest to Team GIO and
the river.
Equipment
The rafts used by us are top of the line Hyside Self bailing
Rafts complete with a lifeline and throw bag. We also ensure
that a safety Kayaker is travelling with each trip to make
the trip that much more safe. Tested life jackets, helmets
and paddles that go into making each trip a fun filled and
exciting one back this up.
