I took my wife, 13 yr old daughter and 11 yr old son on their first whitewater rafting trip and Big Creek Expeditions made the whole experience fantastic. Despite the sizable crowd, they efficiently and quickly got everyone outfitted with gear, provided instruction and got us on a bus for an enjoyable bus ride with guides that were a barrel of fun. Once we got to the launch location, we were again quickly and efficiently loaded into the rafts and on the water. The trip itself was on the lower Pigeon River which is mostly a series of class three rapids with a few class two and even a few class four rapids to make the trip special. My family enjoyed the trip immensely and can’t wait for our next opportunity to go rafting. Now I have ready rafting buddies anytime and I thank Big Creek Expeditions for ensuring a great experience.

Living in Western NC has its advantages, but one of the biggest is access to the adventures of white water rafting. Recently we traveled to nearby Hartford, TN to do some guided white water rafting on the Upper Section of the Pigeon River. This is in a beautiful area nestled in the Great Smokey Mountains. In a word, our rafting experience was un-freakin-believeable. Okay, that's not a word, but it does describe our adventure that day. We went with another couple, and there were just the four of us plus our guide Terrell in the raft. The ride was wild. The raft transversed several Class III sections and maybe even a Class IV or two. In the calmer sections, guide Terrell entertained us with his dry (hardly so in a raft) humor and knowledge of the river. He knew what he was doing and got us through every difficult section safely, all the while screaming for our mommys. I highly recommend Big Creek Expeditions. They are professionals. They make sure everyone understands what to expect and what their role is. Most of all, they make sure you end up the journey still in the raft and with a big smile on your wet face.

Big Creek Expeditions is about 45 minutes south of Gatlinburg. We decided at the very last minute, on a Sunday, to try to go white water rafting. They happened to be the only place that was open! We were very lucky to have found them for our first trip white water rafting. I have always been very nervous and apprehensive about rafting, but we had a great, very experienced guide. Our family of 5, with 3 children aged 11, 5, and 4 went on a very fun, exciting ride down the river! The staff was extremely friendly and knowledgeable, and they all seemed to really love what they did. The trip lasted over an hour, and was well worth the money we spent. It was warm, but not warm enough to swim. Our guide pointed out a variety of animals in the river, and even stopped the raft and turned it around so our little one could see! It was probably the best experience and "attraction" we have been to in the Smokies, which is saying a lot since we come about 4 times a year. This is a definite "Must Do" while you're here.
