“Great day on the water with eating and wine. We started the day in Santiago and headed to Ruta Vertical rafting. Our guide for the river was Santiago and after providing each of us with wet suits, foot gear paddles helmet’s and life vests we were given safety instructions and headed to the bus to take us to the river for rafting. There were class 3 rapids and it was a blast! The guides had a go pro on their helmets and it was great because one member of our group went over board and we have it all on video.” - Reviewed on 2024-02-25
