Staff was great! Freebird (Jimmy) was a fantastic tour guide. My only complaint would be it said approximately 3 hours long, we were back in just under 2 hours.

My fiancé and I had a great time on our rafting excursion.. Nick was our guide on the trip. He was really friendly and very informative. We did the upper fork and would recommend it. A beautiful day and another great time in the Smokies.
