This is a perfect introduction to first timer whitewater rafters. The whole trip was very well organized and the company provides everything you need for the trip. Just show up with yourself and may be some towels. Our guide Thomas was amazing and the other guide (Ken?) was also really helpful and funny. Right off the bat in the parking lot we saw a bear and her cub. The guides immediately told us to to get back in the bus till the bears wandered away. I was impressed by their safety training and felt safe. The views are amazing, the weather was perfect and the guides we’re knowledgeable. All in all a great experience.It was a fulfilled experience with the a fantastic team. the instructors made sure that it was an easy and enjoyable for us. I'm so glad we did it.
