My family and I come every spring to the Smoky Mountains. This was the first year we tried rafting and we were so glad we did! Josh, our guide was amazing! Funny, professional, and made the trip for my boys. I have two sons who have raved about the trip non stop and can't wait to come back. Thanks Josh and thanks Smoky Mountain Outdoors for a wonderful trip!

Such a great experience and I would love to do it again!! Josh was our guide and he made sure we were safe but still having a great time! No one in our raft fell into the water but we definitely got soaked. The water was freezing but that's because we went in early March. Awesome tour guide and awesome experience!!

Me and my family had an amazing time rafting with SMO! My parents are not adventurous, but this was the perfect trip for them! The tour ran on time, and our guide was excellent. I'd definitely go back if we're in the area!
