Overview

This two hour round trip (~one hour on the water ) is our most popular trip, and has the longest season, early May to late September. Your adventure begins with a 10 minute float followed by Class II rapids. Class II is an excellent introduction to white water as it offers a mix of splashy thrills, and calm floats.

This was the first time rafting for the rest of my family and they were a bit nervous about the experience - especially given the weather as there had been a snow fall overnight at the air temperature was barely above freezing and this was August! But the family couldnt have enjoyed it more! The staff were really friendly and helpful, there was plenty of kit to make sure we stayed warm, and my daughters felt so warm they decided to jump into the freezing water and float along side the raft and loved it. Whilst not the most adventurous trip in terms of white water it was enough to be exciting and by the end the whole family wanted to go white water rafting again!

Loved it! Great fun, beautiful views, incredibly clear pristine water, and an icy cold swim at the end. Highly recommended for families (including our kids ages 10 and 8).

Absolutely brilliant! I went with my wife and daughter who both loved the experience. Some fantastic rapids that got us all wet. The whole team were amazing and made the trip such fun. Even got the got chance to jump into the river..very cold but exhilarating! Would highly recommend it.

Great fun! We were advised that with us being so late in the season a lot of the tours had stopped as water levels were getting low. There was no pressure selling and we were clearly told it was a 'tamer' experience this time of year. We booked anyway and had a great time! The guide was great and he purposefully steered us into all the fun bits and in the calmer sections gave us information on the mountains and area that was very interesting and the scenery was stunning. Even though it wasn't the white knuckle rafting we were hoping for it was great fun and would definitely recommend this company.

From start to finish the tour was excellent. Guides were fun and informative (Luke is great with knowledge of the river). All equipment provided, pickup and drop off easy in central location with free parking for us to drive to. Clear and good fun Health and safety brief from Kate on the way to the river. River ride was great with some great splashes and drops but all still very safe. Luke shared his knowledge of the local nature, river, etc which just added to the perfect scenery. Would definitely use again with no hesitation.
