Ask for Jake he is AMAZING! Not only is he extremely knowledgeable and friendly, he does whatever he can to make sure your family has a fun and trilling rafting experience. This was our first rafting experience and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. We will definitely be coming back and we’ll definitely be requesting Jake again. Thank you for such an amazing first rafting experience!

This was our first time rafting. Our guide, Shane was professional, informative, and funny. Beautiful scenery and not too difficult for beginners! My family loved the experience and can’t wait to do again!

We expected to have this be an almost scary experience, but upon joining the stream found that all the worries and fears slipped away and turned to exhilaration, fun, laughter, and relaxing irreplaceable views of the beautiful nature of the smokies, one hour on the river felt like no more than 15 minutes, the whole family enjoyed and would love to go again.
