We had a blast on the river and the guides were good. The issue I have is with the description on Viator - we specifically looked for a longer river tour and Viator said "3 hours" when we got to the office they told us the river trip was only 1.5 on river and a 1.5 hour "training" and we felt like the wording on the website was deceptive. PLEASE, write the correct info! This was annoying!

The entire operation was highly organized and efficiently run from checkin to conclusion. Our guide “Jimmy” was personable and entertaining. He made the trip fun. The rapids were great and we all had a good time and felt very safe.
