Great guides, it was my first time (55 yrs old) and my teenage son's first time. Lots of fun, getting wet, smiles, did I mention WATER! The guides were attentive to their groups and very good at what they do!

Josh Lemon steered us to a great trip. A perfect 10! Ask for him before scheduling. Plan to book again in the future.
Great guides

Jimmy was amazing. All the guides seemed to really want us to have the best day of our lives. It was fairly cold outside (around 68), worse when you get wet. Would recommend going when its hot outside only. Bring towels on the bus with you!
Great Fun Adventure

Epic Guide and a super fun time with Girlfriend
Josh_H, May 2023
This was a seriously fun couple activity. Josh Lemon was our tour guide and he is the absolute man. I took my girlfriend on the 3 hour middle ocoee rafting tour. It was her first time ever rafting and she had a blast. Class 3 and 4 seemed scary to her initially but she said after that she would’ve been disappointed had we done an easier one. Our tour guide, Josh, gave us optional routes through the rapids and gave us the difficulty run-down before we did it to make sure we were all comfortable before attempting stuff. We ended up doing all the craziest and harder routes and it was so much fun. We felt really lucky to have him as a guide. If you’re going for the first time (or just don’t know who to request) I would request Josh. It made the whole trip.
