The staff and experience at River Rat Whitewater Rafting is an engrossing and beautiful experience. The river guides are quite knowledgeable, with witty yet calming banter. Our guide, Rein, demonstrated a thorough understanding and management of the rapids. Furthermore, Rein provided detailed information on the history of the river, the local flora and fauna, and of course safety tips and information. Rein himself was both relaxed yet still alert and commanding. I would highly recommend River Rat Whitewater Rafting when planning a rafting trip in east Tennessee.

Heath is the man! We had such a blast on the river! Everyone was so nice to talk to. Personable and just great people to be around. Thank you all for showing my family and myself such a wonderful time. Looking forward to coming back and rafting again with all of you.
