The rafting itself was an exciting and beautiful adventure but it would not have been as fun as it was without our awesome tour guide Randy! He did a great job of making us laugh, sharing cool facts as we went down the river and making us feel safe. The water was freezing but so worth it! My dad is a hard person to get excited but he even had a blast. I would definitely recommend 10/10 to anyone who is looking for a place to go rafting!

We recently took the Lower Pigeon Rafting Tour and it was great! Our guide was Justin and he was very informative and entertaining on the trip. He took extra care with the two small kids that were on the boat with us, making sure they were correctly locked in to their gear before we left. Justin let the kids out at the swimming portion and they had a blast. We are ready for the Upper and will make sure that we ask for him again.

We had young child so we had to do the lower trip. It is very mild! We will definitely do the upper next time. We did enjoy our trip, just wish it had a little more white water. Our guide was hunter and he did a great job. Wish there was another picture location, we were sad all our pics you couldn’t see 1 person. The overall trip was great and would recommend this company for rafting. Easy to book and organized.
