The rafting trip was great! Andy was super fun and made the trip even better. We had two kids (8 & 10) and this was our first rafting experience so we weren’t sure. Andy assured us it would be great and he was not wrong. I would highly recommend this place!

the trip and the guides were terrific. My only suggestion would be to incorporate photograph opportunities for your guests to create memories they can share when they get back home. it will also act as marketing for your business. Find somewhere on the trip you can find still water to create that opportunity, or... here is a thought.... get a camera enabled drone to follow your raft and be able to download the drone shots to your guests. stills and short videos would have been terrific.
