This tour takes us to the only place on the Rhine where it makes a 180 degree turn - the Rheinschleife. A very special experience which will certainly impress you.
Tour programme
- Preparation:
For this rafting tour we meet directly at the starting point in St. Goarshausen near the railway station on the Rhine. There you will receive the equipment and a safety briefing by your certified guide. After we let the boats into the water and have done a few paddle exercises, the tour can already start.
- Tour:
Altogether we are about 2.5 hours on the water. On the first section we can admire Rheinfels Castle and Maus Castle before taking a short break on the unique Rhine island. There you can swim and regain your strength with a cool drink. The second part of this tour takes us through the famous Rheinschleife before we reach the end of the tour in Filsen.
- Arrival:
From there the drivers can drive back to St. Goarshausen with us to pick up the cars. Other transfers can be arranged individually.
