Had a great experience rafting on the upper pigeon. If you’re debating between the lower pigeon river and this trip go for the class 3 and 4 rapids. Their guides are great and will tell you everything you need to know. There’s the right amount of excitement and great views to make this a fun experience for everyone. This company was a bit cheaper per person than others too when we were trying to decide who to book with.

An extremely well organized and disciplined company. The kindness shown by the Security Staff as i got down from our car and he saw me limping was commendable. He immediately asked me to get in and allowed us to park closest possible to the Office. This speaks volumes about their commitment. Even the time slots allotted were followed perfectly. Our guide Ms. Tia was phenomenal. She looked after us and our grandchildren with dedication and tenderness. It’s much appreciated. Overall an unforgettable experience. To those visiting this area make this spot as the number one place for your River Rafting experience.

I booked online for 17 people, and then called in an additional rafter without a problem. The facilities were clean and staff was friendly. The whole process was seamless. The guide was super friendly and professional. He even was a wealth of knowledge on the River, the trees along the River, and the secret life of the animals that live there. Highly recommended

We had a blast! Our guide Val was amazing. Me n my husband and two boys (10 and 14) were in one raft with guide. We did the upper River part with rapids. It was great. We did not fall out. Another group in different raft did fall in and raft flipped over, all the other rafts helped out to get them into any of the rafts. Guides work as a team. Pictures they took were great. Don’t know how they got them because I thought for sure I’d have a worried face 😂. Definitely worth getting the pictures.
