Testimonial – River Rafting 27
This vacation what are you planning for?Why don’t you try something new and interesting? Pack your bags and come to Goa and try the Monsoon River Rafting with Goa Tourism before the monsoons gets over…. I am 1000% sure you will enjoy a lot
River Rafting in Goa that too at the time of monsoon is just crazy … Oh My God … What a great experience it was. We all were chilling in the rain and were playing with the ripples of the river water… Strongly recommended.
River Rafting in Goa. This is what I wanted to do from so long but never got a chance to do so. Finally, I came to Goa and did it with Atlantis Watersports. It was great fun specially the waves which were very strong and our raft was going crazy it was just amazing. Now, I can finally say I have done rafting and it is great.Highly recommended.
Though it was my second Rafting experience but to be very honest I enjoyed this time more than my first one. Rafting is not only the attraction but there is lot more to explore in Goa River Rafting Activity.It happens on the massive Mahdei River.The activity was just crazy. Amellia
Thanks to our rafting instructor just because his instructions helped us a lot in the entire course of 10 kms. The experience was damn thrilling and was full of adrenaline rush. Waves were good which we enjoyed a lot. The rafting gears were top notch and safety was on top,they provided us with the life jackets and helmets for our safety.To be honest everything was just perfect. The Go Pro River Rafting Videos were just awesome. Loved every bit of the activity.
This is of course an experience which I will cherish for my lifetime. My visit to Goa during the monsoons and choosing the River Rafting activity with Atlantis Water Sports located near the Calangute beach was the bestest decision ever and it was among one of my best outings compared to my other outings, but this could not have been possible without these guys. They provide excellent facilities and services with affordable price packages. I will recommend you all if you are planning your trip to goa in your next vacations. x
It was such a super awesome experience with Atlantis Watersports and must say the crew there is excellent. Totally in love with the river heart emoticon, the Rapids were awesome and the natural beauty and greenery just made our mood. A big shoutout to Goa River Rafting and rest of the crew for making our visit a memorable one.
Goa Rafting brings you the ultimate adventure experience. The swimming ability is not at all required. Wow man it was a kick ass experience for all of us. The Activity couldn’t have been so thrilling without my friends and our amazing instructor. Had a great time after a long time with Atlantis Watersports. Keep up the Good work guys.
What a spectacular day withAtlantis Watersports in Goa. Never disappoints us this guy. This was our maiden trip to Goa during the monsoons and despite being told the monsoon wasn’t the best time for watersports and other such water related activities, Charlie had just the fix we needed. River Rafting pictureson the Mhadei River with top of the line equipment and highly trained instructors tagging along the entire way lets you relax and enjoy the thrill of rafting without any fear.
