we did both, all day experience. The staff was friendly, organized, and fun. Our guide, Stoney was great! He Made the rafting a better experience and he was very knowledgeable!! I had my 9 yr old and 12 years old with me, he was sure to give them a thrilling time without scaring them! Stoney is an asset to Big Creek Expeditions! The rafting was so fun and beautiful.
