Our first white-water rafting trip was great! Everyone was super friendly but what really made it a great time for us was our guide, Rio. Thanks for some great memories Rio!

Had a wonderful time today. Went wild river rafting and Jackson, our guide, was terrific. He gave the right instructions to keep our adventure fun and safe. We were excited and nervous at the same time but Jackson made this activity a memorable experience. Mild to wild rafting and jeep tours is highly recommended.

So fun! With Cat as our guide, we had a fabulous time on the water! My first experience, along with my sons, it was a great “taste” of the rafting experience and TOTALLY has us wanting more! Cat was AWESOME! With great knowledge of the water and bonus geological insight Of the area, not to mention excellent food recommendations for us for our meal afterwards, she is wonderful guide! Highly recommended to those wanting to try it and absolutely request CAT! - Graney Clan

We always honor guide requests when possible. And Cat guides our mild shorter trips, up to our intermediate multiday trips. She is a pro. Thanks for taking the time to share your experience.
