We enjoyed the river trip for what it ended up being. I think that the guides should base who goes in what groups based off of whether or not they have been before. We were stuck on a raft with 2 kids under 13 that couldn't paddle like they were asked and we felt like we didn't get the full experience due to the young kids on the raft. The staff was somewhat unprofessional by talking about other companies in the area, other employees and person things while on the bus in front of those sitting near. The guide on our raft was super nice but spent the ENTIRE time talking to the mom of the boys about other river trips and things they had done. Will definitely use the previous company that we used in the future
