My 9 year old daughter did it and we were so proud! Taha and Efan ours guides looked after us so well! I would recommend hiring the wet suits as I feel the kept us a little warmer in the water! Only 5 euros per suit! The rafting was amazing too! Thoroughly enjoyable day and the food was delicious too! Few thing’s available to buy as extra which we didn’t mind as the overall trip was great…”
