White Water Rafting in Arequipa, a Family Chili River Trip
From €8 per person
See availability →Go white water rafting from Arequipa on a six-kilometre stretch of the Chili River in the Chilina Valley, with intermediate rapids, guides, all gear and a snack after.
White water rafting from Arequipa is easy to fit into a day, and this version is built so the whole family can join in. Intermediate-level rapids carry your raft around curves and drops on a six-kilometre route in one of Peru's popular rafting areas.
You are picked up at your hotel in Arequipa, and a brief stop on the way lets you pick up all the equipment you need. The group then heads to the grotto of the Virgen de Chapí at Charcani, in the Chilina Valley, where a short introduction comes before everyone climbs into the rafts. The time on the water is a little over an hour; the whole activity, including transfers, takes about three hours.
- Professional guides and instructors on the river
- All entrances
- Round-trip tourist transfer
- A snack and a rest at the end
You return to a central point near the Plaza de Armas. On some days the guide may ask to meet you at the square or near your hotel a little earlier, to avoid city traffic delaying the departure. Children under 8 cannot take part.
