    FAQs

    Wear a bathing suit under comfortable clothes so you have dry clothes to change into after the river. Bring your own water bottle. Sunglasses (with a strap), sunscreen, and a cap are recommended.

    This is an advanced trip that can be physically challenging. Prior rafting experience and good physical condition are recommended.

    Send everyone’s name, height, weight, and shoe size so proper-fitting wetsuits can be brought for your group. Share any important medical conditions (for example, heart conditions or food allergies).

    This outfitter earns consistent praise for their professionalism and responsiveness across multiple activities, from whitewater rafting and fly fishing to paddleboarding and historical tours. Guests repeatedly highlight how accommodating the team is with last-minute requests and custom group events, with staff members going out of their way to make things right when issues arise. The communication stands out as exceptionally smooth from initial booking through any needed adjustments. The guides clearly make the experience special. Names like Curtis, Sunshine, Trevor, Brady, Kirk, and Pat come up repeatedly, with reviewers noting their knowledge, patience with beginners, and ability to keep groups comfortable while having fun. Whether you're trying fly fishing for the first time or you're an experienced rafter, guides adapt well to different skill levels. The attention to details like proper outfitting and having equipment in all sizes shows thoughtfulness that doesn't go unnoticed. Repeat customers are common here, with several families and groups already planning their return trips.
