Booked this randomly on arrival in the area. The activity was very well organised, the staff very professional and most importantly made the whole experience enjoyable and welcoming. Would highly... read more recommend them. Kids loved the river walking and the “drops” on the raft.

  We had a wonderful time, we went canyoning, walking, mountainbiking and a rafting expedition. The people working here are also very kind and helpful! I would defintitely recommed going to... read more river tribe if you are staying nearby

  This was a great experince.

We never tried rafting before but the RiverTribe people were very professional and everything felt very safe. The equipment was in very good... read more condition.

Our coach in the raft spoke very good english and was easy to understand.

We are a family of four aged 19-54 and we all felt safe and happy

There were more challenging passages and also more quiet passages.

We did not realize beforehand how extremely beautifull the gorge is, so besides from fun and a little adrenalin You get a very nice nature experience.

We can only recommend this tribe of great young people doing their best to give You a good day

  Very professional, friendly and very good value for the money. We were there in October. We were lucky, the weather the day before and after was rainy, but we had... read more three hours of sunshine. We were the only costumers and had it all for us alone (plus two guides).The canyon is amazing! We have some quite a bit of rafting before. In comparison, the special thing about this the is the canyon itself; it is really really narrow in many stretches, which is fun to navigate through.
Equipment was very good, all safety measures met, friendly people!
Recommendation.

  That was really unique experience of River walk, I’ve never did something like that before. It is so meditative and joyful at the same time. thank you very much, Antonio,... read more for attention to each and every of us. And trust exercise became unforgettable memory for our team. Rafting was safe and funny. This experience was a stunning piece of our Yoga Retreat.
Highly recommend.

  Lara at River Tribe crafted the perfect weekend for our family. We arrived in the afternoon to try a new activity for us - river tubing. After we were outfitted... read more with wetsuits and helmets, we carried our tubes and paddles down the trail to the start. This stretch of the river provided the right balance of relaxing floats and little rapids for us. There was even a deep area at the end for the kids to jump off the platform. Lara then booked us for dinner/lodging/breakfast at Agriturismo U’Curagiussu. The wonderful dinner and wine were sourced from their farm. Absolutely worth the 30 minute drive in the mountains. The next morning we were mountain biking. The trail wound through the forest and roads of the valley. Our guide, Antonio, provided information on history and culture along the way. He also was quick to provide first aid when my son had a spill. Thank you to all the staff who made it a wonderful experience.

  Very friendly team and beautiful nature - to recommend. After a briefing, we had a nice rafting tour with great information about the area. We had lots of fun.

  The Startup Lao River Tribe offers various activeties around the Lao River in Calabria. Staff and equipment are excellent and the rafting tour we took could not have been better... read more - but others have written how good they are, so I do not need to repeat this. Instead I would like to draw the attention to the smaller things they do, but have an exceptional social and environmental impact on this very poor region. Antonio and his team try to create jobs for the local youths that would otherwise leave the region in search of employment, in an area where unemployment rates of 30% are not uncommon this is something important. Further, the continous battle of keeping and protecting the Lao River safe and clean is draining substantial resources - especially when battling "minor" companies like ENEL who want to build a dam there, making the gorges history.
Go there, have a good time (thanks Mephisto & Adriaaaan) and support the region!

  We did rafting and canyoning and it was great. These guys are professional, friendly patient and their base camp is filled with a positive vibe and friendly staff.

  We did both rafting expeditio (incl. wilde camping) and canyoning. Both experiences where absolutely fantastic. Adventures but you feel save with all instructors. We absolutely recommend River Tribe!
