Hi
I am new to this forum, actually we are a couple, 36 and 28 years old and we decided that kayaking and river rafting should be our perfect couple outdoor activity. We both like it and have done an easy family trip with a company (you know, 10 people in a boat and a guide)
However: We want to do that alone now in a tandem kayak.
But how do we proceed? How did you learn kayaking?
From a friend
From a company
Or just by yourself?
We are in the state of Washington at the moment, will drive down to Oregon in the next weeks (we live in a motorhome)
Can anyone give us recommendations for newbies how to start? Are there any companies out there which teach you river rafting (alone in your own boat). Or can you recommend a shorter class I or I-II river that is nice for beginners to just learn a little bit by themself? (Sorry if I sound stupid now)
We are happy to hear back from you all.
Bodo and Andrea
