Our group had a blast! It was the most fun we had in a while. Our leader was Alyssa she was amazing. We had a smooth run where nothing went wrong. She popped jokes here and there with some normal casual talk.

Alyssa was a great guide and made the experience awesome! 10/10 would recommend her! The whole trip was about two hours long and the water was great. The rafting was not hard and little kids can easily do it as well!

Rafting with Big Creek Expeditions was awesome! Chief and Kayla were our guides and they were amazing! We had an 11 yr old and a 70 yr old with us and we all had a blast, we highly recommend rafting with Big Creek Expeditions.
