It was fun exploring the hutt river, and navigating our own boat added to the challenge. The group we had was lovely, and the guide was really friendly and knowledgeable. Definitely a perfect spring/summer activity as there are more rapids when the river is low, and rock jumping was fun without the water being too cold. I would highly recommend to anyone who enjoys the outdoors - it's a great experience and a good entry to rafting in general. I've also done the grade 5 in Taupo - that was EPIC but maybe not everyone's cup of tea and you're in a team boat rather than your own. This would suit most people :) Next time I'd opt for the longer one - but only because it was heaps of fun and I wanted to keep going! Thanks heaps
