Instead of a water park, we chose to do a rafting trip. I wanted my family, who had never rafted before, to experience something different while visiting the Smokey Mountains. We had a great time! We were well instructed and provided new equipment. Additionally, our guide Spencer was entertaining and knowledgeable. The upper pigeon adventure was enough thrill for my family (mostly teens). It was memories made and money well spent. I only wish the trip had been a little longer (about an hour on the water). I should also mention their facilities. It looked brand new and the showers were hot & clean. We were able to shower and change and we’re ready for an evening out in Pigeon Forge. We would do it again next time we visit and probably try the Extreme trip- I think we’re ready to up the thrills
