5.00We were in town with a group of 9. Steve and Keena were our guides. They were great. If you have two rafts worth of family , Steve is an expert at splashing the other raft! Perfect when you are divided with teens in one raft and adults in the other. For some of us it was our first rafting trip. We had a great time. There were a few nice rapids for the beginners and the river was not crowded. Our guides were fun a pointed out things along the way. It was nice 2 hour excursion.
Awesome!

5.00Jake was our guide, and he was pretty good. We did all the things that were possible on the water. We surfed the rapids on our raft. That was cool. He instructed us well. We has a mostly women team on oir raft and we killed it. It was fun for everyone. The kids loved it.
