Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit beim Rafting in der Imster Schlucht. Unser Bootsführer Flo war einfach super. Mit seiner lockeren, lustigen Art und den klaren Anweisungen hat er uns jederzeit ein sicheres Gefühl gegeben. Die Mischung aus aufregenden Stromschnellen und entspannten Passagen machte das Erlebnis für die ganze Familie perfekt. Wir haben viel gelacht, gepaddelt und die wunderschöne Natur genossen. Wir empfehlen diese Tour gerne weiter. Es war ein tolles Abenteuer, das wir auf jeden Fall wiederholen werden!
