Deal overview
Are you looking for a wet and wild adventure?
Then join us for an exciting river bugging session on the River Tummel. If you don’t know what that means, it’s like white water rafting but in your own individual raft which is shaped like an armchair. And talking about the Tummel, it’s one of the most rapid rivers in Scotland!
The result is a white knuckle ride. We’ll give you all the equipment you need to get through it - including a wetsuit, life jacket, helmet and set of webbed gloves - while you must bring a spare set of clothes and shoes because you will get wet!
We meet in Linn of Tummel car park in Pitlochry, deliver a safety briefing and the equipment, then launch the bugs. Our guides are white water experts so they’ll guide you downstream for the duration of this three-hour experience.
This is the price for adults. There is a weight limit of 14 stone/90 kg in place. We can take groups of up to 12 people. If you have children under 16 in your group, take advantage of our child’s price.
We’re bugging out, come with us!
