We had Amanda as our guide. We hit a hole that was bigger than expected due to increased rain. She guided us right through it when others went around as she worked with us to make sure we were ready. Had a blast. I would suggest doing both the upper and lower so you have a longer ride. Would do it again. We had 14 people in our party and not a single one had a complaint. Grandma of 76 went and had a blast on the lower ride.

Took my granddaughter,for the first time she loved it. We went on the low river being the first time, but she wanted to go on the upper one. Very kid friendly, the run on time . People very nice .if you take a camera make sure you have a water proof case you will get wet. Our guide was super very nice friendly,helpful a lot of experience.

Took our family and kids as young as 8 on the upper river rafting expedition. We all felt very safe and had a wonderful ride. Our guide Steve as experienced and knowledgeable. Easy to book reservation on line.
