White Water Rafting - Kiulu River

Sabah Day 2

 
It was free & easy. The agency has arranged a few activities for us to choose. Many chose to play golf at the breathtaking golf course in Nexus Resort; some went to Manukan Island for scuba diving and some went for a shopping spree at the city centre. The crazy gang like us opted for the exciting white water rafting adventura! :D
 
It was my first time and boy it was thrilling. 28 of us were taken to the destination in a luxury bus from our hotel. I even saw magnificient Mount. KK whilst on its way!
 
Kiulu River is located on the northeastern part of Sabah, claimed to be the one of the most beautiful village in Malaysia that promises glimpses of thrills within its beauty of nature. We opted for Class I-II river grade - just nice for beginners who crave for a mild and safe adventure.
 
The weather was actually very accommodating after a night’s pour the previous night, it meant stronger white water for us!
 
This trip covers up to 15km of river excursion and about 6 hours including traveling time. We took about 2 hours of rafting, swimming, boat fighting and body rafting before reaching the ending point where we were served with delicious barbecue lunch.
 
We didn’t bring any water proof cameras, so the pictures below were just some screen captured from the video shoot.
 
Walking gingerly across the Hanging bridge and the boys were shaking and jumping at the other end

The trip cost us RM150 each. We paid a little extra to have a video shoot of us throughout the trip.
 
I say absolutely worth it!
