We had an absolute wonderful time! This company is one of the best. They were very prepared and professional, even providing us lockers, water shoes, and water jackets. The equipment was high quality and made the paddling very easy. The guide was very knowledgeable and took the tour at the groups pace. We never felt rushed or bored. Excellent activity and 10 out of 10 would recommend to others.
