RnR - White Water Rafting

Australia’s most famous one day white-water rafting experience! Raft the Tully River’s 45 rapids in an action-packed five hour white-water adventure in remote World Heritage Rainforest! Rapids include the unforgettable ‘Alarm Clock’, ‘Wet & Moisty’, ‘Stair Case’ and the dramatic ‘Theatre’ - all before a riverside BBQ lunch opposite ‘Ponytail Falls’ where time is made to replenish your batteries before the afternoon’s remaining rapids.

The air-conditioned drive to Tully, south of Cairns, is a scenic journey through cloud covered coastal mountains, clear rivers and streams, fields of sugar cane and exotic fruits. Humorous and informative commentary is supplied by the hosts for the day - RnR’s experienced and rigorously trained River Guides. There are departures 364 days a year.

A video of the days’ adventure and action photographs, plus an exciting range of RnR merchandise, is available for purchase after the trip at our exclusive Rafters Café in Tully.
