My friend and I had a great down down the River with our rafting guide Axel! We can't wait to go rafting again on our next trip.

Our guide, Amy, and the trip leader, James, were so much fun. Amy was so great with all of the kids on the boat. She offered snacks and her own jacket to a scared 5 year old and empowered the 6-11 year olds to “call the shots”. They both interacted with the two families on the boat in such a personal manner, and were also knowledgeable about questions we asked about the area. This was such a wonderful morning, and I highly recommend a trip with this company. Additionally we had a train trip directly after, and our shuttle driver went above and beyond in terms of customer service.

We had a great day on the river! K was a fantastic guide, and we hope she found her phone! Water was fun but very safe. Easy ride for everyone looking for a nice cooling ride.
