We had a great time on the water even though the water level was pretty low. Billy and Sydney were wonderful tour guides! We went with our 15 and 12 year old kids. Next time we will take take the class IV trip.

We had an absolute blast rafting today. Our guide Eric was the best and made the day so much fun for us and our three boys. Would recommend to anyone and would do again!

Fun rafting for all levels. Our guide was terrific and truly loves his job! Our teenage kiddos loved it as well.

Bump up the challenge level with an inflatable kayak and pilot your own craft or ride in a raft with one of our terrific guides, either way you and your kids will love it! Thank you for the review.
