2.5/5
I took the kayak option down the river to the hot springs with my girlfriend.
While I found the experience enjoyable and scenery beautiful our guide was less than helpful to my "first time kayaking" girlfriend. From unconstructive criticism to frank rudeness, I honestly wanted to walk off at times. The tour felt rushed with the guide moving upstream and tapping on his kayak while he waited inpatiently for us. I would strongly recommend bringing your hard earned money else!

On behalf of Rapid Sensations we would have appreciated hearing from you on the prior to this so we could have discussed your issues on this particular day and it is always a great concern to us if a guide is not looking after our clients to the standard we like to maintain. I have tried emailing you to discuss this but have had no reply. Please feel free to contact us.
