airhead22 Posted April 12, 2009 #4 Share Posted April 12, 2009 I have no answer but I understand. My daughter made everyone miserable in Belize tubing because she was cold. Nobody else noticed. I would like to know also, we are going in Sept, without the daughter :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jmang66 Posted April 27, 2009 #7 Share Posted April 27, 2009 We just went white water rafting last week, the water was not cold, we were afraid that it would be but that was not the case. The air temp was high 80's to low 90's so the water felt really good. Our raft did not flip but we still were soaked. Only one raft flipped the day we went, I think people did not paddle very well because they lost people 2 times. We would def do this excursion again.

shiloh25 Posted May 5, 2009 #8 Share Posted May 5, 2009 Thanks so much for this info. One more thing - Is there a place to put your stuff while you go out on the raft? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arf2005 Posted May 9, 2009 #9 Share Posted May 9, 2009 Thanks so much for this info. One more thing - Is there a place to put your stuff while you go out on the raft? We went with Oscar Brown, and we left our items on the bus with him. They have a waterproof bag (of sorts) on the raft, but they will tell you ahead of time that if you chose to put items in it, they won't be responsible if they are lost or broken.

chachi Posted June 17, 2009 #10 Share Posted June 17, 2009 I hate the cold, but I didn't think it was bad. It was so exciting that you don't even notice. There was one part where we were able to climb up a cliff and jump into the river. It was refreshing, colder than I'm used to, but it felt great!

scapel Posted July 3, 2009 #11 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Pacquare River for white water rapids. It's where they filmed the rapid scene in the movie Congo. Great rapids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetstorm Posted July 31, 2009 #12 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Can anyone tell me what class rapids you raft on? Class two being very gentle and class four being quite large. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
