First time whitewater rafting and it was a blast. Our guide, Jean Paul, was excellent and very knowledgeable while guiding us down the Upper Pigeon River. If you have the opportunity to be guided by him you won’t be disappointed.

Jean-Paul really made the raft complete. He let us 360 the raft, didn't hit any rocks, kept everyone safe, and was funny/interactive the entire time.
