We had such a blast rafting the upper river whitewater tour. The rapids were so much fun and we felt like our safety was the main priority. Our guide Riggs was awesome! He offered a lot of information about the area and was very encouraging throughout the trip.

We had such an amazing family adventure! Naila was our guide and she made the experience better than we could have expected. She was personable, funny and knowledgeable. Was the perfect activity for our 18 and 13 year old kids! Would do it again given the chance :)

This was our first time ever going down the river. My children was so scared until after the first five minutes then they was fine. Our guide was Jason and he was the best guide ever. We would definetly be back and make sure we ask for jason
