Chilik River Rafting

My s sestroy reshili poprobovat' chto-to novoe, ona davno zvala na splav. Alia byla nashim koordinatorom, vse organizovala: sobrala gruppu, nashla mesto vstrechi, derzhala svyaz' poka my ekhali. V iyune voda eshe holodnaya, no v gidrokostyume normal'no. Pervyj spusk pokazalsya slozhnym, no instruktor pomogal. Vtoroj uzhe uverenno proshli porogi. Obea byl na beregu, prosto no vkusno. Obratno v Alma-Aty doehali bez priklyuchenij. Spasibo za organizaciyu, budem sovetovat' druzyam.

The rafting went great, but the bus was a bit late. In June the water is invigorating, bring warm clothes.

In June we went rafting with colleagues, wanted to unwind. Liked that the instructor explained everything. The water is cold, but fine in a wetsuit. Two rafting runs in a row — excellent.

Went with my son in June, he'd been asking for extreme for a long time. Zhanna quickly booked and reminded about a change of clothes.

Went in August, it was very hot, but on the water it's fine. I liked the second rafting more than the first. Minus — lunch could have been more filling, otherwise all ok.

Gathered with friends for rafting in July. We'd long wanted to try something extreme, but without fanaticism. The bus ride took about two and a half hours, along the way the instructor explained the safety technique once more. On site they gave out wetsuits, life jackets and helmets, all clean. We did the first descent cautiously, the second more boldly, even caught the rush. Lunch on the shore was simple, but after rowing it went down great. We got back by 20:00, a bit tired but happy.

Zhanna helped choose the date, we got July. Rafting along the Chilik is brisk, two descents in a row — just what you need.

At first I doubted whether to go rafting, I had no experience. But the instructor explained everything, and we passed the second-category rapids calmly. In June the river is still full, the splashes are icy, but tolerable in a wetsuit. Lunch on the shore is simple, but after rowing it goes down great. The bus ride wasn't tiring, we were in the city by 19:30. I liked the second descent more than the first, you already understand how to work the paddle. Equipment was given without problems, helmets and vests are fine. If you want a thrill without an overnight stay — just the thing.

Went with my sister to celebrate her birthday, we'd wanted to try rafting for a long time. Aliya organized everything clearly at the group gathering, we met on time and without delays. The bus ride took about two and a half hours, in June mornings are cool, so windbreakers came in handy. On site they gave out wetsuits, vests and helmets, the instructor gave a briefing on rowing. We did the first descent on emotions, the second more confidently. Lunch on the shore was modest, but after the exertion we ate everything with pleasure. We returned by 20:00, tired but satisfied. For beginners it's just the thing, no experience needed.

With work colleagues we decided to unwind, chose rafting. In July it's hot, at first it's stuffy in the wetsuit, but in the river it's just right.

In July I went rafting on the Chilik River with my family, the kids liked it too. The program is good, but lunch was a bit simple. The road is long, but the bus is comfortable. Overall 4.

Alia koordinirovala gruppu, vse chetko: mesto vstrechi, svyaz' v doroge. Spasibo!

In June I went with my father, Aliya gathered the group and kept in touch on the way. I really liked both descents.

In June the water is brisk, we passed the rapids twice. The instructor is knowledgeable, the bus is comfortable.
