Great time!! We did the full day float. The Upper Pigeon was so fun. We battled the rapids and won with our wonderful guide, Andrew. He was a great instructor and had us rowing like pros (ok maybe not pros, but we didn’t fall out). It was a blast. The Lower Pigeon is much more scenic and we had Joseph for that part. He was also a great guide. The views were beautiful. We are a family of five, mom, dad, and kids-20, 15, & 13. We all had an amazing time. And would definitely go back!! Recommend 100%

We appreciate your review! We love that you were able to experience the Full Day River Adventure and had a remarkable time on the river with both of your guides. We hope to see you again next season!
