Brittany & Gillian were awesome; we felt so comfortable & safe w/ them. My husband, Kevin, was the “exciting” troublemaker which between him & the guides made the trip laughing the whole way. We will definitely be back & hopefully have the same guides. Thank you for such a great day❣️

We had the most amazing time doing this on our girls trip. Our guide, Goose, was perfect for our group, and even did some Britney karaoke with us. We were confident in his instructions, laughed the whole time, and wished we could immediately do it again. 100% recommend

WOW! This was by far the highs of our trip! I went with my husband my 17 year old daughter and 12 year old granddaughter. They do go through worst case scenario in the event you should fall out of the raft and other safety protocols before we headed out toward the river.our guide “Jedi” Mike was fantastic, we knew we were in good hands, he has over 25 years of experience! Highly recommend! White water rafting should be on everyone’s bucket list!
