First time doing white water rafting and we enjoyed the grade 3 rapids as a family. Our guide (Jess/Jessie) was awesome. The hot chocolate and sausages were also a bonus.

Had a wonderful time lead by Jess. Our all girl crew conquered the rapids, and a few of us cliff jumped. The scenery was spectacular and what Jess doesnt know isnt worth worrying about. A great day out on a pristine river.
