So I should give some advice as I downplayed the fact these were the lower falls and not the bigger rapids, we got plenty wet and definitely had to paddle through some rapids, it ends with level 3 rapids, some level 2 and some calm water with an opportunity to jump overboard and swim, then they pull you back in. You do not need your phone, you will be hanging onto a paddle and paddling through the trip, there's really not much time to get the phone out of its waterproof case and snap shots. The tour guides had funny stories and talked you through everything really well. I'm not sure we really needed to arrive 45 minutes early, but we are nearing the end of tourist season so maybe it's just slower, but we sat for that full 45 minutes waiting. I can see if you hadn't filled out wavers beforehand or purchased tickets before, there would be more paperwork. A good trip, had some exciting parts, I might even consider doing the upper falls, but honestly this was a good level of excitement no one was disappointed. My advice: leave the phones at home and bring a change of clothes (I got soaked while my kids got moderately wet and my husband was mostly dry, I regret not bringing a change of clothes as it was a 40 minute ride back to the hotel and the car seats are still wet)

You are correct, we have slowed down. The Lower Trips are different because you don't have the bus ride at the beginning. Also, the guides need rest time inbetween the trips. So, by waiting, you were helping your guide. Thank you..So glad you had a great trip and I hope you come back and try the Upper.

Had a great time on the lower river trip. Went with our 3 year old, 6 year old and 11 year old. Enough excitement for the older 2 but mild enough for our “shark lookout”. Austin was our guide and he was amazing - fun, knowledgeable, good with the kids. Would definitely recommend!

Awww...thank you for this good review. We are happy you chose SMO to make your memories. Bring the children back to the Upper when they are older!! The river sharks are fierce.

We did the lower pigeon River Rafting Tour (Family Float). It was easy to find location. Parking was easy. we did all the paperwork online, and so nothing to do after check in. the arrive 40 minutes early was a bit of a drain and seemed unnecessary. I can understand how arriving 15 minutes early would have been a bit of chaos. Essentially once you get there and check in, you are asked to wait on a big covered gazebo. July in Tennessee is hot hot hot. And waiting there with our kids, with no fans on for what ended up being at least 50 minutes. Once you are called off for your rafting group (7 or less people, plus guide), the guide will get you fitting with helmets and life jackets. They were great about making sure that we had well fitting life jackets. For the family float, you then walk down a little bit and the rafting take off point is right at the main office location. I think for the Upper pigeon river you have to take a bus to the take off point. We then got in our rafts and did a float down. The guide gave us local information about and taught us about the river. Once the rafting is done, we were loaded onto a bus for a short ride back to the main office, turned in our equipment and were done. Our guide was Hannah who was okay. It seemed there was a lot more playing around going on in the other rafts, my kids kept asking to splash water (pretty hot!), but none of that seemed to be encouraged by her, so I told them not to do it. I pre-bought the photo package for $44 online when we bought our tickets. Online it says they guarantee at least 10 photos of your raft. This ended up being 10 photos from all the same location. My mistake was to assume there would be 10 different photos, but essentially it was all the same photo, and about 12 of them. Not sure exactly how it would have worked. They had a wall of Venmo QR codes for all the guides, which also made tipping very easy and that was much appreciated.

Hi There! We appreciate your feedback. We ask our guests to show up earlier so we can check you in and get you prepare for your trip. Sometimes we run behind due to traffic or other reasons out of our control. We are sorry you were a bit disappointed about the photos only taken in one location. I hope they captured good memories of your family trip. Our river guides are usually very playful, I will address this to the river manager. We hope to see you again maybe next time on the Upper section. Thank you again for your review.
