Such an awesome trip - so much fun, amazing guide and just challenging enough to introduce our 11 year old to rafting. And to top it off garth’s tomato soup was the best. Thanks guys coming back to do the grade 3 next time.

We had some apprehensions going into this as our youngest child is 4 and had never done this before. Not in our favour also was the weather - unceasing rain in the middle of winter. But we ended up having a really great time! Our guides Gipsy and Evan were friendly, had great knowledge of the river and wildlife, and very helpful. The gear provided was of good quality and more than enough to make the 2 hr ride in the rain warm and comfortable. Bonus marks for the hot drink in the middle of the river, and we were overjoyed to see lots of whio (blue ducks) and shags. Photos were included in our package, have attached one here just to show the quality =) our daughter thoroughly enjoyed the ride (including the rapids) and didn’t want it to end! Kept asking us why we couldn’t continue on the river haha Keep up the great work guys!…

Had a great trip on a rainy winter day- warm and full of adventure. Our guide, Evan, was fantastic- experienced, calm, confident, a great teacher. Would go again anytime.

A very streamlined operation had us equipped of all our gear, briefed, loaded up and in the coach before the previous visitors complementary fresh foot-stomped Tomato soup had time to cool. Our Guide kept us entertained and engaged with a decent flurry of jokes and yarns and hilighted points of interest along the river. Overall, we had a great time and will definitely be back.…
