This was our first time White water rafting. Our guide, Stoney, was awesome. We felt safe and he kept cracking corny jokes to keep us laughing. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants a fun adventure. There were Rapids and flat areas. I put my phone in a waterproof case and took a few pictures in the flat area. A company will take boat photos that you can purchase.

My family had an awesome time! The level 3 rapids were a blast! Our guide Sarah provided us with a fun experience and we even learned a bit along the way. I highly recommend this company and excursion.

Fun activity that the entire family enjoyed. The guide was excellent and related well to everyone. We were only on the water for about an hour but went through about a dozen Class 3 and Class 4 rapids in that time. I would go with this tour again.
