| A
modality of adventure tourism, rafting or whitewater rafting
consists of floating down waterways and navigating their
rapids in inflatable rubber boats. Rafting is one of the
most popular adventure activities, because it does not
require much preparation by the tourist. Nonetheless,
only professionally trained tour operators can offer an
enjoyable experience while guaranteeing safety. |

Part
of the appeal of rafting is that the whole family can
participate in it. Usually, to enjoy this type of adventure,
you do not need to be an experienced rafter or know how
to swim. A rafting trip is typically organized by a tour
operator that provides the necessary gear for the activity,
including rubber dinghies, high-buoyancy life jackets,
helmets, and oars. |

Volume
of water, obstacles, drops, and steepness of gradients
determine the level of difficulty of whitewater runs.
Water runs can be classified as follows.
Class I - III: Water runs for everybody.
Class IV: For this type of river, you need to be in good
shape as it demands more intense physical effort and,
sometimes, previous experience.
Class V: Requirements include all of the above plus previous
experience.
