If your group size is less than 4 you can either join a group, pay the difference, or enquire about starting a new booking with your preferred date.
Once there are 4+ people we will confirm the trip. You will receive a ‘pre-arrival’ email (waiver) – please check your spam folder. Each person must fill out this form before the trip commencement date. Any persons who have not completed our waiver form will not be allowed to go on the trip.

After receiving your ‘confirmation’ your trip will still show as confirmed, however your trip may still not go ahead due to the following:
- River Heights – too high or to low. We try to give as much information as soon as we know ourselves and sometimes won’t know until the morning of your trip.
- There is a chance we will drive to the river and cancel the trip on arrival due to no electronic river gauge in the area. In this case you will get a 80% refund to cover so we can cover our costs. This is very rare!

Dingo and his team were absolutely amazing. Can't rate them high enough.
Will definitely be going back there again.
Thanks guys.
I bought the 2day adventure for my wife's 40th birthday and I was blown away with how good it was. From start to end, rafting to camping. The rafting was amazing, flogging it down a grade 4 rapid was quality !The food was excellent and they weren't shy with it, 3 chooks cooked over fire in the camp ovens with herbs spices and veggies, couple beers around the camp fire gazing at the stars!
The guides were excellent, Dingo and his team know their shit and made the experience.
Will definitely be booking again!
i have been to beautiful places in the world but the Nymboida River through the National Park is right up there with the best.
Food was great- guides rocked so what more can I say except hit that book button
# Tip - The river was low when we went and a couple of the rapids were too dangerous at low level. This meant walking the riverbank at some stages. All part of the fun but just know, depending on the river levels, you may be rock scrambling a little.
Definitely recommend and coming back again.
The establishment is on this cool remote property right near the river and we loved that it was a family owned business. We were greeted with an adorable dog who after having no objections from any of us rafting joined us on the water. The family also had recently rescued a magpie that had gotten kicked out of the nest so we got to get up close with the little bird. The lunch afterwards also hit the spot- nothing more Australian than a good old snag on the BBQ.

Having never whitewater rafted I found the exodus team v friendly, well organised, gave good instructions and erred on the side of caution for mainly a group of novices.
The river and surrounding scenery was magnificent and worth seeing.
I had a fun day and enjoyed the bbq lunch.
So I recommend you get on out there and book a trip. You won’t regret it.
Cheers boys
Rafts were terrific, guides fantastic, great food too. Highly recommended.
The scenery is world class, the food a bit better than I expected and the accommodation was intense. For the record I am 67 so no excuses.
Great fun
Couldn't have been more accommodating
We did the family trip, level 1-2 rapids as we had a mix of ages and found this to be a great taster for the 11 and 13-year-old while the tubing and cruising on the rapids was enough to keep the 16yr old engaged.
thanks Dingo and Buccy, we will be back
Just looking at the photos now!

The company can be a little difficult to contact due to the limited internet/mobile reception where they are based, but they always called back in the next day or two.
Highly recommend their rafting adventures!
If you're looking for somewhere to camp before/after this trip, I would recommend the Platypus Flat Campground. Toilets, BBQs, fire pits, picnic tables and a beautiful spot to camp right on the river.
We had quite a good run on to the rapids with a lot of fun and thrill on the way. Well experienced and oragnized group of instructors they are.
Big thanks to (ditch, matt, dave and sam) for making our trip lot memorable and adventurous.
Will love to do it again !
Everything was spot on, the guides are amazing and the location Primo. So much fun!
They also organised a pretty sick bbq bonanza at the end of the adventure.
