Mario is the best instructor
It was a very nice experience. Kevin (Mario) was an awesome instructor and really made our day. The route itself was fun also. The only thing that could have been better was if we had not stopped so many times during the ride. Would recommend for sure!!
via Tripadvisor
All around great experience!
Hands down our favorite rafting experience having rafted three times before, including class 4s in Alaska. Kevin was a fantastic guide and a pleasure to be around. The river itself added to the experience with waterfall trekking and cliff jumping! 10/10 recommend!

Why this scores 88
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Chili River White Water Rafting Adventure with Pickup: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Arequipa.
How much does Chili River White Water Rafting Adventure with Pickup cost?
+
Prices start at $19 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Arequipa usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Chili River White Water Rafting Adventure with Pickup take?
+
Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Arequipa is not rushed.
Is Chili River White Water Rafting Adventure with Pickup worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 88 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 641 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Arequipa, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Chili River White Water Rafting Adventure with Pickup?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Chili River White Water Rafting Adventure with Pickup suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 8. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 3-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Chili River White Water Rafting Adventure with Pickup?
+
Around 224 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Arequipa can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Arequipa and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Chili River White Water Rafting Adventure with Pickup start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Arequipa within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Arequipa?
+
On Outty we rank every Arequipa experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Arequipa Rafting on the Chili river free pick-up,snack,&fhotos, 2 Day 1 Night Trek Colca Canyon, Rock climbing in Arequipa and the Andes of Peru. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Arequipa?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Arequipa?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
