    BOSTON, MA, March 12, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The 2009 white water rafting season looks hopeful for many river guides and tour operators across the country, RealAdventures (http://www.RealAdventures.com) a website popular for its extensive range of global travel listings and travel industry forecasts, today reported that the number of consumer inquiries for white water rafting trips in 2009 is set to exceed those of 2008.

The 2009 rafting season kicks-off with a bang in April as snow begins to melt across the country and rivers start to rage. For many thrill-seekers and professional river guides this is known as the spring flow, as rivers literally overflow with water and provide for more challenging courses. A strong spring flow usually represents a longer rafting season and many industry insiders are already calling for a huge run in April, signaling a season that could last well into October.

"The white water rafting industry is positioned to do well this year," says Vik Kachoria, founder and CEO of RealAdventures. "Record snowfall in parts of the country will translate into a longer floating season and more river rafting trips. Our research shows that despite tight budgets, consumers are planning on traveling this summer and are looking for budget-friendly, family and group oriented trips. For all of these reasons we have seen a rise in the number of travel inquiries to rafting companies on our site."
