Martha Brae River Rafting Private Tour with Transportation

About

Martha Brae River Rafting is a one- to two-hour float on a 30-foot bamboo raft down a slow river near Falmouth, piloted by a local rafter who poles you through the canopy. It's calm — more scenic drift than whitewater — and the private tour means you book the raft to yourself, with round-trip transportation included from your pickup point. The price runs around $165 per booking, which covers the raft, the guide, and the ride there and back. The seven reviews on file rate it 5 out of 5, which is a small sample but suggests consistent execution. The rafters narrate the route and sometimes stop at a swim spot or a rope swing if the water's up. You're on the river, not on a schedule, so if you want photos or to drift in silence, that's the deal. Bring cash for tips and for the vendors who set up at the put-in and take-out. Wear something that can get wet. The river's gentle enough for non-swimmers, but kids and older travelers do fine.
