Best experience ever! The rapids were tons of fun and so exciting. Our tour guide Crock knew the rapids like the back of his hand, and gave us the most thrilling and enjoyable experience we could’ve ever asked for. Will be going back!!

My family went on the Upper Gauley float trip with Keegan as our guide. He did a fantastic job providing clear guidance and interesting conversation along the way. This is a mostly relaxing trip with a few moments of adventure mixed in, which was perfect for our more nervous family member. It was an absolutely beautiful trip and a lot of fun!

Found this company online and was attracted by their friendly support and competitive pricing (they're cheaper than the larger companies operating in the area - but no less professional). From start to finish the experience was outstanding. We had the boat to ourselves (2 couples) and were guided by Crock. With no experience of rating within our team Crock had us immediately at ease. His 40+ years of experience and over a decade on this river, shone through. He was the consummate entertainer and guide, with more experience than I've had hot dinners (and a decent taste in music too) - and it showed. A genuine, funny and highly skilled guy, Crock guided us with pinpoint precision to the best drop ins on each rapid to ensure we got the most out of our trip. We struck lucky with this company. Crock comes highly recommended; there was never a dull moment with him. He had the local knowledge, the historical insights, superb boat handling ability and the charisma which, combined made this an unforgettable experience - thank you Sir! I am coming back in July with my children and their friends - we will be sure to book with this company and to ask for Crock.
