Good to know

  • Because of group minimums, solo travellers should ask the operator whether they can slot into an existing group. [1][2]

  • Whether a single person can join a group booked by others.
  • River levels and grade on the day (depends on rain).
  • BigTree's fitness recommendation wording and age limits.
