Itinerary
Your journey begins as you depart from Nairobi, traversing the scenic Thika Superhighway on a 105-kilometer drive that takes approximately 2 to 3 hours.
Arriving in Sagana, a charming town nestled at the southern foot of Mt. Kenya, you’ll be greeted with a warm welcome and served a cup of coffee or tea along with biscuits. A short but essential safety briefing follows, ensuring you’re prepared for the adventure ahead.
Equipped with life jackets, helmets, and paddles, you’ll head to the departure point to commence your unforgettable river expedition. The initial stretch of the tour introduces you to Class II and III rapids, allowing you to acquire the necessary paddling skills under the guidance of experienced instructors.
As you navigate the river’s twists and turns, you’ll encounter calmer waters that provide an hour of serene drifting, giving you ample time to admire the awe-inspiring scenery and spot the diverse bird species that inhabit the area, numbering over 110.
The climax of your adventure awaits in the final four-mile stretch, where the intensity picks up with Class III rapids. Refreshing your paddling skills and commands, you’ll conquer three thrilling sets of rapids, ranging from Class IV to Class V, followed by smaller rapids that add a final surge of excitement to your journey.
After successfully completing the adrenaline-fueled ride, you’ll be treated to a mouthwatering 3-course barbecue lunch at Savage Camp, where you can savor delicious flavors in the midst of nature’s embrace.
For those seeking an extra dose of excitement, zip-lining is available at an additional cost, allowing you to soar through the treetops and further enhance your adventure.
As the day draws to a close, you have the option to return to Nairobi, arriving in the evening. The skilled guides and drivers will ensure your safe journey back, dropping you off at a location convenient for you, and concluding your unforgettable Rapids Adventure on Sagana River, a day filled with adrenaline, natural beauty, and lifelong memories.
