This was a great experience from beginning to end. The staff, especially Elena our guide and Kelsey at the front desk, made it easy and entertaining. The river was very high, but is was clear that the guide knew how to manage the raft well. Our trip was short, but we got the full flavor.

In advance of the trip, we had lots of questions due to bringing a 6 and 8 year old. They addressed all questions, whether in the online chat or via phone. Benji was the best guide. The water was up due to all of the snow. They assured us of our kids' safety and took precautions to walk our kids around the class 3 rapids. We had a blast and the kids loved it.
