If you are looking for a fun and memorable experience in Davao you must try whitewater rafting! ;) and Base Camp Davao provides this unique service. The package cost 1,500 pesos per person which is inclusive of transportation, food,Basecamp T-Shirt, safety gears, guides and CD of all the pictures :) supah sulit diba. 

To schedule a trip with them, you must book ahead of your schedule plus they require at least 5 persons per trip but you can join the schedule of others if your group is below the required minimum number of persons. Well, if you really want to go out on your own group with less participants and with no other groups going on same schedule, you still can although you have to pay for the cost of other 5 persons.

The rafting takes 2 to 3 hours to finish the 13-km long course.

They can schedule 2 rafting trips in the day and my friends and I decided to choose morning batch that starts at 7 am  in the morning. We were picked up by basecamp jeepney from our hotel to their office where we got first our gear and signed waiver forms. It takes about an hour jeepney ride towards the starting point (put-in area) at Tamugan bridge.

contract signing LOl :)
White water rafting is not new to me :) because this is my second time to try this kind of activity, first is in CDO. 

preparing for our raft :) and were ready!!!

When we arrived at the rafting point we trained on how to put on our rafting gears para mas lalong safe hehe plus they teach us how to use the paddle para we know kung anung paddle stroke ang dapat gamitin. Meron ding safety drill test :) kung saan tuturuan nila kayo kung paano ang tamang paraan ng pagsagip sa taong nahulog sa raft

Our guide made sure that our life vests were securely fastened.

With safety as the number one priority of them, our guides never failed to gave us last minute instructions before we hit the waters :) and at last were prepared and ready!!

of course hindi mawawala ang selfieselfie LOL!

Our guide asked my friend to jump into the water para i-test samin ang pagrescue sa kanila if sakaling mahulo sila sa raft hehe infairness ang bigat LOL!. 

Hey kuya! tama ba?!
