This was our first time rafting, and we had 4 adults, 2 eight year olds and a seven year old. We had a blast! We chose the Lower river tour because we were novices. We felt perfectly safe the entire time, and our tour guide, Brett, was fantastic! We'd love to go back and try the upper river tour. We had beautiful weather, and the equipment and organization of the trip was top notch! We would highly recommend this trip to everyone!

We had so much fun with our guide Tanner. It was a bit rainy but it didn't spoil it at all since you are getting wet anyway. All of us loved our family float and agreed it was the highlight of our vacation. My youngest was 8 and he enjoyed the swim spot. I highly recommend this rafting place for your next adventure.

We always say that rafting is the best thing to do on a rainy day-you're going to get wet anyway! I'm glad to hear you had a great time, and I appreciate your taking the time to share your experience. Please come back and see us on your next visit to the Smokies, and have a great summer!
