Rafting in Serbia

In general, the offerings include rafting equipment, guides, boats, paddles, life jackets, safety helmets and neoprene clothing. Tents or sleeping bags may also be included into the offers.
It is very important to wear appropriate clothing and footwear. Even if it is hot during the day, there should be a warm jacket and boots for the rain in your bag. It is not advised to come dressed in luxury clothes because it can be easily damaged by waters.
It is advisable to wear a hat or cap, sunglasses and a wetsuit or swimsuit. Avoid having valuables because it can also be damaged under the water.
