We had the best time during our Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge vacation and our whitewater rafting adventure tops the list of things we did. Our guide Nick was excellent and kept our entire group engaged and entertained on the river. The scenery was amazing and the experience was unforgettable. We would definitely go again and request Nick as our guide in a heartbeat! We had a blast! You will NOT regret this experience!

Fun rafting experience at the Upper Pigeon River. Our guide BJ was very experienced and was EMT certified and was guiding for almost 20 years. We had a ton of fun and definitely recommend this.

We had a great time and highly recommend the upper river tour with Fortnite! He was the best guide and did lots of fun things that the other guides did not do. He was great with our 9 and 15 year girls, made sure everyone was safe, shared lots of information about the area and had a great time. The picture package was great and saved us from risking loosing our phones and cameras. Bring your own snacks, drinks, dry clothes, sunscreen and wet shoes. Picnic tables available in case you want to bring lunch.
