Experience the thrill of white water rafting on the Chilli River on a 3-hour tour from Arequipa. Enjoy a fun and safe adventure with professional guides and equipment.

Start your adventure with a pickup from your hotel in Arequipa and head to the gear house to get kitted out with your river gear. Change into wetsuits and safety gear and head to the river via a scenic drive through the Chilina Valley to the Virgen de Chapi-Charcani Sanctuary, a small church along the Chilli River where your tour begins.

Before entering the water, your guides will give a brief lesson on river safety and rescue, as well as explain the role of the rafting guides and the safety kayaker. The first section of rapids is Class II and useful for practising rowing techniques and river safety.

Next, run an exciting Class III section where you are sure to get a little wet. The next section is Class IV, the strongest rapids you'll encounter. After an exhilarating run through the Class IV rapids, stop where swimming and cliff jumping is an option if you don't feel like you have got wet enough already.

The final 15-minute stretch before you hop out of the river is Class III with sizeable rapids. Upon leaving the river, change out of your wetsuits and gear and make a quick stop at the storehouse for a snack. Drive back to the Plaza de Armas to enjoy the rest of your day in the white city.
