Best Rafting Experience - This was the most fun I’ve had on a rafting trip! Cherokee Rafting was very intentional. The guides explained safety well, they kept us laughing, and were attentive to our needs. GIANT shoutout to the best guide ever, Josh! He asked us how we wanted our ride to be and made sure we had loads of fun. He’s the only guide I want to go with in the future! If Ms.Linda sees this, I hope she knows what a grade A son she has!

Highly recommend - Wonderful experience! As a Christian it is comforting to know I can take my family on an adventure w/ a company who shares in my same beliefs! Our guide Aaron was fantastic. He was full of knowledge about the area and helped us do a few tricks in the water too! Our family of 4 were the only passengers in our raft. Highly recommend!!!

Beautiful Day to ride the Ocoee - Amazing trip. It was my first time and Mike did a great job at guiding us through the various rapids. It was adventurous and fun at the same time. Mikes many years of expertise and knowledge of the river was evident.

Great experience - We had eight people in our group so we were split into two rafts. The booking process was simple. The trip was very organized and efficient. Josh and Will were our guides and they both did an amazing job. Everyone was professional but friendly from the moment we arrived to the time we left. We will go back again next summer.

Amazing experience - The whole crew was amazing and very friendly! My raft guide was an Army veteran, like myself, and he was very friendly. I truly enjoyed the experience! Thank you Cherokee family 🙏🏼
