Fun thrills and spills rafting along the Simme

5.00Beginner's river rafting on the Simme was a fantastic experience for the family. It was a nice and comfortable raft ride along the river with a few exciting rapids along the way. We absolutely loved it. Our guide Hemi from NZ (hope I spelled name right) was excellent and gave us great chat along the way. Wonderful day out for all.

4.00Brilliant family activity. Suited us well, the right amount of adventure and excitement to suit us all. Guides were friendly and confident. They ensured we had a fab time. The kit was excellent quality, clean and well kept. Changing room was very basic and did not have a shower although online it says hot showers available. I felt uncomfortable and a little exposed changing there.
Good experience, but with areas for improvement.

3.00We traveled as a family to go rafting. Everything was fine, except that they did not allow us to take our cell phones to take photos or videos, and they told us that they would do it, however, no one on their team takes video or photos, so we missed leaving a trace of our adventure. . An area to improve, which can even give them more income, and greater customer satisfaction. Likewise, a good part of the return trip is on foot, that is, walking, instead of being taken back in a truck or car.

5.00The weather gods weren't with us, but we had an amazing time anyway. This is a well run operation with a talented (and hilarious) team. I promise these folks will make you laugh and have fun whether you want to or not. They're great, they're obviously experienced, they're good teachers, and their equipment is top notch, from the boats to the vans that will transport you. They have great support staff for everything you might need. We were lucky to have Stan as our guide. He is experienced and fun, really everything you'd want from someone guiding your boat down rapids. Great, great trip - please do it, you won't regret. (Oh, and purchase the picture package! Some of the best from our entire trip. Well worth it.)
Awesome Guide Mr Hemi!

5.00Want to commend our Guide, Hemi, for making our family’s river rafting experience so memorable! He was clear with his instructions and he was patient with us. Hemi made us feel comfortable and assured that we were doing well even though we were such amateurs! His cheerful demeanour lighten the fears of river rafting! He even remembered all our names! Thank you Hemi!!

4.00A great experience. Would have liked more speed. Rather disappointed we were because the guides could not speak any/little German. Especially when it comes to safety, it should also be understood by guests. Otherwise, top.

5.00The trip was incredible! Class II-III was perfect for us who haven’t been rafting before, but it was still super thrilling. Our guide Heath was AMAZING, super funny and informative. They do pick up and drop off and even a free drink at the end?!? 100% do it!
