Bamboo and Rubber Rafting

It's a lot of fun to raft down the Pai River.
You can choose between a jungle trip or a trip through the rice fields.

In the jungle, you go over rapids with the bamboo raft.

The jungle trip starts quite far up river. After travelling 30 minutes, you will hike for 45 minutes through the lush forest to the starting point. There are rapids on the way down, and you will hear the sounds of many birds (and sometimes monkeys).

The second option is a trip from a small Shan village back to Pai, through rice fields and a lot of other vegetation. It is beautiful scenery, typical of northern Thailand. You can watch farmers and fisherman along the river, and see children playing playing.

Be prepared for the possibility of getting your feet wet !
Bamboo rafting is possible nearly all year round.
Rubber rafting is only available from July to December.

The combination of � day elephant trekking and � day river rafting, including lunch and transport, is possible.

Unlike most other companies we reuse our bamboo rafts, several times for rafting, and then for building. That is why our ending point is always in a village, and the rafting is not in a remote area, where the rafts only get used once.
