Accommodation
Designed to blend with the environment, Kayak Inn is an adventure camp that offers rustic bamboo hut accommodation along Tibiao River, Antique. The native huts are made of crushed bamboo, each with a garden bathroom and a “kawa” – a large wok-like bath for two that is heated by fire.

As a base camp for adventure, Kayak Inn is the jump-off point for thrilling activities including river kayaking, rafting, mountain biking and hiking up waterfalls. It also offers more relaxed activities such as soaking in the Kawa hot baths, full body massages and social interaction with the local upland villagers.

The adventure camp, then as now, has no electricity. However, it does have thousands of fireflies lighting up the acacia trees on the banks of the Tibiao River.

Location
Kayak Inn is located in the upland village of Tuno, a sleepy, picturesque village, ideal for unwinding and taking in the local color. Only two hours away from Caticlan (or four hours from Iloilo City) the camp is a healthy break from the partying of Boracay Island or the stress of city life. Your quiet relax at Kayak Inn is met with heaps of fresh food, fruit and the local coconut wine called “tuba”. For those seeking some adrenaline, long treks through the rainforest and exhilarating sessions in rafts or kayaks on the Tibiao River await!

Visiting Kayak Inn
Kayak Inn is open and accepts walk-ins year-round. Whitewater river kayaking/rafting is usually possible and at its best from July to February. We advise to contact Tribal Adventures prior to your visit to check the water level at Tibiao River and confirm kayaking is possible at the time.

Tribal Adventures offers day trips from Boracay to Kayak Inn. The Boracay day tour is all inclusive of tour guide, hike to waterfalls, white water kayaking, kawa hot bath, meals, drinks, and private transport to & from Boracay.

Also on offer, for those wanting to stay a little longer, is an Award-winning 3-day tour to Kayak Inn, which includes hikes up Mt. Madja-as (the highest peak on Panay), a visit to Tibiao Fish Spa, meeting local textile weavers, and a trek to Malumpati cold springs.
