Outstanding service!!! - We booked a Class 4 rafting tour that was supposed to cover 10 km, but the day before our trip, we were informed that the river was too high. Instead, they suggested an 8 km tour. The rafting experience was at a Class 2-3 level, which was decent, but those expecting a Class 4 or higher experience might be disappointed. However, the pickup at our hotel, the facilities, and the overall service were outstanding! If you haven't tried white water rafting yet, this is the activity for you in Chiang Mai!

Fun, safe, and professional rafting tour - A friend and I took the 10km whitewater rafting tour. After booking, I was contacted on WhatsApp by the company with details on what to expect, packing list, and answering any questions I had. Everything felt very well planned and professional. While rafting we had 2 kayaks following us for safety, as well as additional staff on the shore at the more intense sections of rapids. The included fried chicken lunch as delicious as well. We had a great experience and feel it was well worth the price we paid. I will definitely look to book another 8Adventures tour when I'm back in Chiang Mai and I highly recommend them for anyone else who is considering booking!

Fun Fun Fun - It was my 4th time with the 8Adventures team and they did not let me down. I had so much fun, met new people and just enjoyed the beautiful nature around me. The atmosphere is chill and fun. They know exactly what they are doing, safety always comes first followed by fun :) I can only recommend this Team over and over again no matter what adventure you’ll chose it will be unforgettable. Can’t wait to book again!:)

Must-Do! - This is world class rafting and ATV operator. We have 2 teenage kids and they have been down the Mae Taeng River more than 5 times with 8 Adventures. They have also been down class III/IV rapids in California and Colorado so we have some perspective to compare. First, the 10 km section of river is awesome. Lots of moving water, good rapids and fun thrills. The scenery and nature are outstanding. And the whole operation runs with precision and safety. We often get the question - this is Thailand: is it safe? And the answer is, 8 Adventures is not Thailand. They are a world class operator: the safety standards, the staff training, the equipment maintenance. We know our kids are in good hands. You will enjoy and your kids will love it! It’s a must-do on any trip to Chiang Mai.

Whitewater family fun - Our whitewater rafting adventure was simply amazing. We went with our family and felt safe the whole time. The guides went through all of the safety guidelines and expectations throughout our day. The food was great and it was a bonus that we could purchase pictures of our rafting fun that the photographer took (500thb). Highly recommend!

Super fun and smooth experience! - First of all the rafting was incredibly fun, and the safety was top notch! The guides were also great, and they made sure everyone was having a good time. It’s a bit pricey, but so worth it! Everything from transfer to safety briefing to rafting to lunch etc. ran like a well oiled machine, and we were never waiting for anything or anyone. Would highly recommend!

Awesome experience - The experience was awesome. Was allowed to jump out of the raft and swim with elephants in the river. Also thrilling falling out of the raft when going down the rapids too!

Great Rafting experience - Well organised and very professional. We were picked up from our airbnb and driven for about 1 1/2 hours where there was coffee / tea and a safety briefing. The rafting was good fun with some decent white water but also some calm bits where you could swim if you wanted. The boat captains were very good and friendly with lots of safety cover on hand. After there were showers and lunch. Would definitely recommend.
