Water level varies with snowmelt and rainfall. Spring flow can push Class III+. A heavy rain day can temporarily change child suitability — we'll advise when you book. Peak booking time: 11:00–12:00. Most popular with groups arriving from Tbilisi in the morning.
Getting from Tbilisi
Rafting is 100 GEL per person — that price covers the activity only. Getting to us from Tbilisi is separate and up to you: drive your own car, book a private transfer for your group, or join a fixed-schedule open-group transfer (cheaper, shared with other guests).
