My buddy and I booked a last minute ride with them and it ended up being the highlight of our trip. We had Drew as a guide and he was absolutely amazing. Made everyone in our raft feel very comfortable and we had an excellent time. Would recommend to any one looking for a different type of activity in the mountains.

Went rafting on 6 August as a family of 4 and this was absolutely one of the highlights of our trip. Very well organised, very thorough safety briefing and lovely staff. Our guide, Dave was knowledgeable, interesting and expertly guided us through the rapids. It was so much fun! We all loved it! Thoroughly recommend.

The Hydra river guides was a well run trip. We ordered the lunch, which was a great add-on. Our tour guide, Vern was excellent as he kept us safe and ensured a good time. We saw great scenery while having a blast in the raft.

Great experience for anyone wanting to try whitewater rafting! Guides are fun and knowledgeable. A surprise waterfall hike was included. Rapids are not aggressive so if you’re feeling unsure about trying it this is the ride for you. Great for kids of all ages for a first experience.
