This was a lot of fun. Rafted with my husband and 13 year old grandson. We all had a wonderful time. Berry was our tour guide and she was knowledgable and a lot of fun! We had some class 3 Rapids and we all got wet, but everyone was safe. Great fun. Would definitely do it again. We're very glad we did the four hour trip -and at 2pm as the weather was perfect. Water was cold and air was hot!
