Afternoon rest or return from excursions is followed by:
Dinner
After dinner, there will be time for socializing around the campfire and music. We advise you to bring warmer clothes because although the days are very warm, the nights by the river can be unexpectedly chilly.
3rd day
After a comfortable night's sleep in our wooden bungalows/rooms, you will wake up with the first rays of sunshine. Fresh forest air will open all your senses. Our restaurant offers excellent domestic coffee, tea, and homemade brandy. In addition to the restaurant, you have access to a rooftop terrace and a summer garden overlooking the river Drina.
Breakfast. Breakfast time is around 9 a.m.
Now you will have the opportunity to try specialties from our region. Domestic food from nearby villages, domestic bacon, sausages, our famous buckwheat fritters, homemade cherry jam, eggs, pies with cheese, young Romaniski cheese... Breakfast is strong, caloric... It will give you the necessary energy because the rafting adventure will soon begin...
After breakfast, you will be given the necessary equipment for rafting. Everyone receives neoprene suits specially designed for extended stays in the water and will protect you from the cold water of the river Tara. The suits are picked up in the skippers' room, where all the rafting equipment is located. You also need shoes or boots made of neoprene, a life jacket, and helmets. You take all the equipment to your room/bungalow and dress over your swimsuit or shorts. Do not wear anything under the suit, nothing but a swimsuit or shorts.
After putting on the equipment, we gather on the plateau, where traditional group photos are taken, and then we read the lists for rafting.
Since the RT center is located at the so-called finish, we go to the starting point of rafting, Brstanovica, in our vehicles. The ride to the starting point takes about an hour.
After arriving at Brstanovica, skippers - boat drivers, will assign you to boats where they will give you a short briefing or course on boat behavior. The boats used for rafting are professional boats specifically made for rafting and designed to withstand the playful rapids of the Tara River.
Each boat has waterproof bags where you can put some basic things.
We advise you to bring your own GoPro cameras. If you don't have one, you can rent GoPro cameras from us and record unforgettable moments while rafting. Note that we are not responsible for the loss or any damage to phones and cameras that you bring on rafting.
During the rafting, you can expect over 30 exciting rapids (the most famous are C̆elije, Borovi, Varda, etc.) that will leave you breathless with their force and speed, and make you experience the true feeling of adventure and adrenaline.
If you forgot to bring something to drink, feel free to lean over the boat and take a refreshing water from the Tara River, whose water is drinkable along the entire length of the basin, which is why the Tara River was named the "tear of Europe"...
At some point during the descent, we will make a break and see who has the courage to pass the "test of manhood, " which is to swim in the icy waterfall whose temperature is barely 5 °C.
You will also have the opportunity to swim in the Piva River, which has incredibly clean water, which, together with our Tara River, forms a powerful river Drina. After rafting down the Tara River, we continue down the Drina River to our RT center.
After about 2-5 hours, which is how long the descent takes, we arrive at the foot of the rafting center. This is followed by the return of the equipment and warm water that will be immensely pleasant after the cold water of the Tara River.
Optional excursions
Consumption of drinks at RT Rafting Center
Individual expenses
For those who want faster, more exciting rafting, we recommend choosing the months of April, May, and early June.
For those who want a calmer rafting experience or come with children, choose July, August, and September.
For those who want to visit us with children, we recommend choosing so-called working days, from Sunday to Friday. Prices on working days are more favorable and there are fewer crowds.
Prices are most favorable at the beginning of the season, on working days, as well as for early reservations. If you know the date of your annual vacation in advance, reserve your spot in advance at a more favorable price.
On weekends, i.e. Fridays and Saturdays, we organize live music, and from May 14, 2023, we will have live music 5 evenings a week. Music on weekends is until 2am, and on other days until 1am.
It is possible to reschedule or cancel your reservation and we will offer you a new date if you contact us no later than 2 weeks before the planned arrival date.
Rain or bad weather are not valid reasons for cancellation. We have all the necessary equipment for rafting in bad weather, and our bungalows, as well as the restaurant, have heating. If you are not sure, choose summer months such as July and August when rains are rare and short-lived.
Food at the RT rafting center is traditional, homemade, caloric, mostly based on meat. If you are on a special diet, vegetarian, vegan, etc., please let us know when making a reservation... We have a great selection of dishes and we will be happy to accommodate you.
Due to heavy traffic on the road from the RT center to the starting point of rafting and on the river itself, rafting can be organized in two groups - after breakfast and after lunch. If you have a desire to be in, for example, the first group, please let us know when making a reservation, we will be happy to accommodate you.
If you want to go on an excursion in addition to rafting, for example, a visit to the Sutjeska National Park, choose package deals that already include rafting and a specific excursion. Reserve package deals in advance. Of course, you can decide on any excursion on the spot, but in that case, the price is higher. Package deals are reserved in advance and are always more favorable.
If you decide to go on one of our excursions or package deals, we recommend rotating the program, i.e., for better organization of your time, we will organize excursions on the first day (most excursions are full-day and last longer than rafting itself), and leave rafting for the second day.
Please read the description of our accommodation - STANDARD, COMFORT, SUPERIOR.
Comfort accommodation is located in bungalows and rooms. There are no differences between rooms and bungalows, the equipment and price are the same. Some guests prefer bungalows more, some rooms. If you have special wishes or prefer, for example, to be in rooms, please let us know when making a reservation. Depending on the capacity, we will be happy to accommodate you.
The RT center has two pools that are available only to our guests. The use of the pool is included in some packages and not in others. We have made an effort to clearly highlight which packages include pool use. Those who do not have the use of the pool included in the price of the package can buy a bracelet at the reception. The bracelet costs 5€ and is valid for the entire stay.
We have three types of accommodation, labeled as standard, comfort, and superior in the price lists. Bungalows and rooms are structured as double, triple, quadruple, quintuple, and sextuple.
We also offer a rich menu of pescatarian, vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free food. (And we know the difference between them. ;-) ) We use a special fryer and grill plate for preparing such food, and ingredients are not mixed.
Note: If you are on a special diet, please let us know when booking your arrangement or at the latest upon arrival at our rafting center RT. We will be happy to fulfill your requests.
Almost all of our bungalows have their own bathrooms, and the vast majority also have TVs, mini-bars, safes, kitchens... Although, logically, you might think that this is taken for granted, we have to point out that this is a rarity for camping accommodation in nature.
Although we are located on the banks of the Drina River, we remind you that its temperature, even in August, is only 17 degrees Celsius at the most. That's why you love to seek refreshment from the high temperatures in our swimming pool. And there's also a cocktail bar for true enjoyment.
The food at RT Center is domestic, authentic food of these areas, traditional, prepared on the spot, on the same day... We bring in groceries several times a week from nearby markets and farms, grown by our farmers. If you are on a special diet, or if you are a vegetarian, vegan, pescetarian... don't worry, some of us are too. We have a great selection of dishes for you, and we know the difference between them. We have special grill plates, fryers, and cold showcases, and the ingredients are not mixed.
The parties at the RT center are already well-known far and wide. We always have guests looking for more. The large number of guests that RT center can accommodate contributes to a great atmosphere and young people meeting each other. And the bands - Kix band and Kosava band, are real masters of creating a great vibe. They quickly get all our guests on their feet, and many of you even on the table.
As part of the RT center, we have a paintball court. And the best part is that you don't have to have a group of people to play. We organize a paintball tournament every day, and all you have to do is sign up at the reception desk to participate. You can even play alone.
Parked in front of the RT center, our quads are available to you at any time of the day. It is important to note that they are brand new. We purchased some of the four-wheelers in 2021 and some in 2022.
We organize almost all excursions every day, and you don't have to have a group to go on any of our excursions. You can even go alone. Due to the large capacity of the RT center, we always have enough guests to organize almost all excursions.
We take great care of the hygiene and cleanliness of the RT center as well as the bungalows, rooms, and restaurant. We have employees who take care of the cleanliness of the camp 24/7. We also invest a lot of time, effort, and money into the decoration of the RT center. Currently, we have more than 650 rose seedlings planted at the RT center, and every spring we have a campaign to plant seasonal flowers. Our flowerpots are adorned with over 1000 cuttings of geraniums, petunias, surfinias, begonias, tulips, peonies, and more.
We are proud of all the members and employees at the RT center. They quickly become your favorite waiters, bartenders, and especially skippers. They are warm, honest, cheerful...and quickly win you over and make you happy.
We have guaranteed departures every day from Novi Sad and Belgrade, as well as from all major cities in Serbia.
It's always full, lively, and dynamic here. We can accommodate 380 rafting enthusiasts, and if you have a company with a large number of employees, you don't have to split them up into several camps. All your employees can stay with us. We have special pricing options for companies, the possibility of payment by invoice, and a rooftop terrace for presentations, a projector, and everything necessary for a successful presentation.
