Man, where to start.... The guide that was chosen to lead us, Jackson , was outstanding, His personality , river knowledge and fun character made this trip awesome. From the time we booked the reservation our experience was outstanding. From the specific safety statements and the entertaining and well received message "not to stand up if you fall out of the raft" was heard!!! Thank you for operating a respectful, fun and mature business. All of the guides we observed showed how much they love and respect the outdoors, as well your contribution to family fun. Thanks again, we will be back for sure. Great job!! The Sullivan Party
