Well Worth Adventure - Went with my best friend and we had a very good experience and feedback on this tour. Mike and Andre were very friendly, knowledgeable, and experienced in the whole process from trip preparation, going to the river launch site, during the raft, as well they provided a lot of information that that is fascinating about the region-specific's ecology and environment. We actually took the paddle and pictures tour (not listed on the option for the review), but it comes with a lot of information on introduction to photography. Absolutely recommending the trip, worth both the value and for the experience.

Super Fun experience - It was so much fun. The tourguides Alex, Kate and Kareem are also really good animators and comedians besides being guides. Not to forget Jenn the driver who gave us a save ride to the drop off and from the pick up point. I had an amazing time. Thank you

Fun, Sunshine, and Excitement! - The rafting tour with Marty was absolutely fantastic! His humorous nature lifted the mood while providing us with interesting information about the surroundings. The group was in high spirits, and the amazing weather made the tour even more unforgettable. I can definitely recommend Marty as a guide.

Cracking experience. - An exciting morning. I went with my daughter. We’ve never rafted before. Our guide, Kate was brilliant and gave us such reassurance and confidence. I’m in my late sixties but it wasn’t too challenging but also very exciting. Go for it. You’ll have a great time. Well organised, very efficient and all round great fun.
