Both tours run on the Inn River through the Engadin valley, operated by Engadin Outdoor Center, and both are open to all fitness levels. The 120.13 CHF family rafting option runs 3.5h and sticks to accessible sections near St. Moritz and the Swiss National Park, making it the right call for mixed groups or first-timers. Pay the extra 17.64 CHF for the 4.5h Giarsun gorge run if you want a longer stretch with more confined canyon terrain and sustained whitewater exposure. That extra hour on the water is where the intensity difference lives. If you're unsure, go for the gorge: the price gap is small and the experience gap is not.
