Well organized, professional, kind guides, good instruction, beautiful scenery, few true rapids, may need to plan for earlier in the spring.

We had an excellent time! Our 8-year-old loved it, though we kept him paddle-less in the middle of the raft for safety much to his eternal disappointment. Jesse our guide was funny, informative, and conscientious. Would definitely do again.
