Our guides, Steve and Emma, were great! They were a lot of fun, full of interesting facts about the area, and knew how to handle the rafts! I chose a mild rafting experience for my family, as we had never been white water rafting before. I will say, on this particular day, the river was quite mild. There were a few exhilarating areas - but I would have loved a few more! I booked the shorter trip for us, as we were on a tight schedule - however, in hind sight, I wish I would have booked a longer rafting adventure for us - it was so much fun, and I wasn't ready for it to end!
