Great River Cruise experience. Best way to see Catarat Gorge - Absolutely amazing. Relaxing, fun and such great views. The 2 gentlemen Tim & James were such a hoot, providing great information, commentary and such good hands on experiences for the kids. Absolutely worth the time and dollars

Not really interested activity - The customer services is good! But its very boring to just sit on the boat and go one round. Not recommended this activity.
