The river flow wasn’t fast compared to our last rafting trip at Kern River, but John (our guide) he did an excellent job to spice it up, go above and beyond to make it so fun and memorable. Our raft was the most excited one going down the river compared to the other four. Overall Mild 2 Wild employed a group of friendly knowledgeable people from the office to the guides at the front line. I definitely will go rafting again with them and highly recommend it to everyone!
