Our guide was great. He did most of the work and was fun to ride with. Great job all around and I highly recommend this tour company.

Our family of 3 (dad, mom, 11 year old) decided to do the one hour adventure. All of the workers, from the person who took our reservation to the ones who handed out PFDs, were extremely friendly and peppy. Our guide Beth was superb- funny, competent, full of stories about the area. She successfully guided us through the Class III rapids toward the end, and helped us "surf" a few rapids. We highly recommend this rafting company. One note to the owners- $25 for a digital picture seems high. I would expect for that price to get a printed 8 1/2 x 11 photo, as well as the digital document. I was disappointed about that, especially with the overall experience being so great.

Had the best time. Our rafting guide, Hayden, was super! They even let us bring our dog. First time this company has ever rafted with a dog. Even he had a blast!

We love dogs...most of us have dogs! In fact, our company dog mascot, Louie, has his own instagram page. Check him out: Louie Bert Mickel or adventure.dog.louie!
