We had an amazing time with Ody on this rafting trip. The half day was perfect for first timers and he recognized that we were up for a little more adventure and added to the trip accordingly. We signed up for a fun family adventure for Father’s Day and that’s what we got! We even had a couple of us cliff jump in the end. Highly recommend for any age and skill level. Super fun for the whole family!
