The jacket and the helmet are not optional
A licensed operator will not put you on the water without both, and neither will a river guide who intends to keep their licence. If anybody offers you a boat without them, that is the whole answer about that operator.
You do not need to be able to swim
A properly fitted life jacket floats you whether you can swim or not, which is why the age limit is a rule and swimming is not. What matters far more is staying calm in cold water for thirty seconds.
If you go in: feet first, on your back
Point your feet downstream so they take the rocks instead of your head, lie back, and hold on to your jacket. Do not try to stand up in moving water — a foot wedged between rocks is how people drown in rivers they could have floated down.
The guide's commands are not suggestions
Forward, back, get down, high side — these come a second or two before they matter and a raft only works if everyone moves together. Listen to the safety talk even if you have rafted before; the rapids differ.
Nothing to drink beforehand
Alcohol and cold fast water are a genuinely dangerous combination, and any operator worth booking will refuse you.
