Scooter was our guide. He did a great job, felt very safe the whole time. There are some big rapids. You will definitely get wet. Wet suits were provided By this company (bib, jacket, even boots). My family of 7 went on one raft with another couple. My kids ages are 18-6, and everyone had a great time, and asked to go again. We will do the snake river again and I will definitely use this company on our next river excursion!
