White Water Rafting from Colombo (Private Day Tour) 


  • 01-02 Hours Rafting expedition, which will cover about 5 KMs ( Graded 2/3 rapids)

White Water Rafting is a challenging recreational activity and an exhilarating water sport. Yet contrary to the public belief, White Water Rafting is not a sport that demands great physical strength.

Kitulgala - Kitulgala, Sri Lanka

You will be picked up at your hotel at 7:00 am. Once you reach Kithulgala, you will be shown a safe place to keep your belongings as you can’t take them with you into the rapids. You will also be assigned an instructor who will show you the techniques to use as well as the necessary safety equipment and measures for rafting.

After the presentation, you will begin your rafting session. Enjoy the thrill of adventure as your whitewater raft down the rapids of a 5km stretch of the Kelani River. Bounce through the turbulent white waters with the confidence and protection offered by proper safety measures. Let your adrenaline rise as you are whirled through the foamy rapids in an experience you will never forget.

Afterward, you'll have some free time to enjoy an authentic Sri Lankan lunch (at own expense) if you wish, before your tour concludes.
