Brilliant day on the water nice and high due to rain. Not too crazy but some exhilarating rapids. Dorothy our guide was great, led us through the rapids expertly. Would recommend to anyone as a good introduction to white water rafting.

The experience was not very organized and quite chaotic. The river rapids was fun but there were so many boats that we had to wait at each area before moving on, so it wasn’t great.

Love these guys. Easy for beginners but if you're younger it's better to try the hazard 4 rapids they have on offer.
