Amazing experience - We had a great time white water rafting, has been a highlight of our trip to Canada. Jaro made the trip so much fun, had lots of humour and provided us with lots of information about the wildlife. Thankyou so much!

Rafting with teenagers - We had lots of fun. Our guide Javo was informative about the area and did a great job of not flipping our raft. We had 2-16year old boys and a fourteen year old boy

Awesome time! - My buddy and I booked a last minute ride with them and it ended up being the highlight of our trip. We had Drew as a guide and he was absolutely amazing. Made everyone in our raft feel very comfortable and we had an excellent time. Would recommend to any one looking for a different type of activity in the mountains.

Fantastic - Went rafting on 6 August as a family of 4 and this was absolutely one of the highlights of our trip. Very well organised, very thorough safety briefing and lovely staff. Our guide, Dave was knowledgeable, interesting and expertly guided us through the rapids. It was so much fun! We all loved it! Thoroughly recommend.

Fun on the Rapids - Excellent guide and a lot of fun on a cold day. The river was nice and high so the rapids were good fun. Great choice for all levels. And an enjoyable experience.

Complaint trip not as advertised. - The trip itself was great but we paid for a bbq for 6 adults at the end of the trip there was nothing. When I asked about it the company said this had been stopped last year. The trip sold to us on Tripadvisor was incorrect and we did not get what we paid for. Also the address listed on the meeting point information was partially incorrect and when we put the post code into the satellite navigation it showed as being 4.5 hr away from our location.
