Hell Yeah! - Scott and his team are absolutely hands down so much fun while putting safety first. Derek our rafting man who we named "Kalani" was very knowledgeable and entertaining. He made us feel safe . Lots of fun and I hope whoever reads this is fortunate enough to experience this amazing excursion. We were all first timers and can't wait to do it again.

Terrified novices turned into White water thrill seekers - Our guide Scott was an absolute God sent. My son was terrified of the activity and he was very upset that I had signed us up without consulting with him. I let Scott know that and he was so sensitive and aware of that fact throughout. He turned this whole experience around for my son and me and we wanted to go back the same day or next.

2 pm float - Great experience. Completely worth it. We went at 2pm on a warm summer day. We might have been cold in the morning, but we're also from Texas.
