FAQs
Wear clothing you do not mind getting wet. Choose wool, synthetic, fleece, or athletic fabrics, and avoid cotton. In warmer months, a bathing suit with shorts or a T-shirt works well; cooler conditions may call for a wetsuit rental.
Wear secure shoes that can get wet, such as sneakers, water shoes, or sport sandals. Flip-flops, slides, and Croc-like shoes are not recommended.
Bring a water bottle if you want one before or during the trip; it can stay on the bus or go on the raft. Bring any needed medication, such as an inhaler or EpiPen; dry first aid kit storage is available.
