Amazing rafting company! Extreme rafting with Ewok! - Had an utter amazing time doing the extreme white water with Ewok the rafter! The whole team at this place were so kind and welcoming. We turned up a bit late and requested last minute a different trip and they swapped out the raft for us even when they had everything ready for what we previously booked. Was an amazing experience, when you arrive certainly ask for Ewok if he’s available as was an amazing rafter and gave us an amazing time. Would certainly recommend this company!!!

Way to go TAZ - It was amazing and Taz was the best guide ever. Super fun on the smallest boats that were luckily available for us. Very cold water but was an amazing time!

Fun time - This was my husband and ice. First time white water rafting and the tour guides made it a great experience. We did the upper river twice, once with Liam and then with Doah. Both were great guides!

Do it! - Rayne was an amazing guide. He was very informative and fun! Request him! We were first time rapiders with age ranges from 9-adults. The views were fantastic and we had a blast! We even got to swim for a little bit. Recommend 10/10!

Great ride! - My grand daughter (18) and I did the extreme today. What a trip! Just myself, my grand daughter and Van, the guide. I warned him not to go easy on us because of my age! (67). I think it was the best ride i’ve had! Van was full of little tricks to keep us excited, and wet (some times in the water and times with water in the boat lol) and he never was without a big smile on his face which is contagious! It was awesome! Thank you Van! Of course the whole experience with River rats was easy, uncomplicated, professional and the staff is great 👍🏼 inside and outside. I plan to bring all of my visiting guests to raft. This is my third trip with them this year (once in townsend as well) Thank you again Van! Im sure we made memories today that Mia will laugh about all her life! Lol Be seeing ya! Mary Crocker
