Our guide Ian, was very informative about how to stay safe while having fun. So much fun! It was our second time to go down the river, and this will be on our list of things to do every time we come up here! Would recommend to anyone wanting to go rafting.

Randy was an outstanding guide! Enjoyed every minute of our upper river float! I was nervous it was going to be too challenging and my husband was worried it would be too easy, it was great for both of us!
