We have a large family so they had to split us up on 2 different rafts. Both rafts had a fantastic time. No one fell out of the raft! The guides were extremely experienced and friendly. Very easy to get in and out with plenty of parking.

Huey was an excellent guide, gave us plenty to enjoy. The customer service was very helpful as well. Most fun we've ever had while in the smokies!

We had Mayo as a guide, and I can't say enough good things about this company. From the get go, they had everyone before us sanitizing their gear. Even during the reservation process they were answering my emails after hours for the next day. The trip itself was intimidating, but we couldn't have had a better guide. I am certainly requesting Mayo next time we go!
