This private tour allows you to have an immersive journey through one of Sicily’s most extraordinary geological formations. Formed by ancient lava flows from Mount Etna and shaped over thousands of years by the icy waters of the Alcantara River, these gorges create a natural canyon unlike any other in Europe. Body rafting allows you to explore this hidden world from within, giving you access to narrow passages, vertical basalt walls, and hidden rock pools that can’t be reached by foot. Unlike traditional rafting, you are in direct contact with the river — floating, sliding, and swimming your way through nature’s masterpiece. At the end of the tour your Tour Leader will accompany you to traditional restaurant where you will have lunch based on Sicilian appetizers and Pasta alla Norma. Please note that for the Body Rafting activity there is an age limit of 60 years old.
Your tour leader will greet you directly at your accommodation, and together you’ll set off in a comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle towards the stunning Alcantara Park—ready to begin an unforgettable adventure immersed in nature.
After arriving to the base camp for the body rafting, you will meet your rafting instructor, who will help yougearing up with all the necessary equipment (included in the price). After a safety briefing, you’ll begin your descent into the narrow basalt canyons. Using only your body and the current, you’ll navigate through natural chutes, jump into pools, and experience the raw power of nature from a unique perspective. This activity is suitable for adventurous travelers looking for a fun, active, and refreshing experience during the Sicilian summer.
"After this thrilling experience, your tour leader will accompany you to a traditional Sicilian restaurant, where you’ll enjoy a delicious lunch featuring local appetizers and the iconic 'Pasta alla Norma'. Following lunch, you'll be comfortably accompanied back to your accommodation.
