You'd be hard pressed to find adventures that push quite so far into the wilderness as rafting trips do whilst remaining thoroughly accessible to us mere mortals. The River Siang in India's Eastern Himalayas plays host to just 100 paddlers a year and we think this has to be the ultimate rafting trip.
Think of this as the antithesis of a day's white water rafting with a bunch of corporate groups and stag dos - this rafting trip pushes deep into the river for days, camping at river side beaches and paddling intermittently between wild rapids and graceful calm sections of the river. The remote Arunachal Pradesh region has only recently been opened to foreigners and the award winning River India takes an extremely responsible approach to rafting this epic white water. Recognized by National Geographic, Outside Magazine and our own Geotourism Awards, River India deliver an adventure with a conscience. The trip starts just on the border with Tibet and sweeps past tribal villages, dense jungle and hilltop tea plantations for 11 days of incredible adventure. There are only four trips each year around the turn of the year, book online or if you'd like to find out more about the trip check out River India's Facebook page.
