Highlighted reviews from other travelers
The activity was great! Dorothy our guide was extremely friendly and a great trainer, they made it really fun and seamless to pick up!
Activity was very well thought out and organized. What made it so fun was our guide Tina, she tried so hard to make it extra memorable for everyone by allowing us to do fun games and tricks on the river. Because the weather canceled the Barron river we had to switch to the Mulgrave river which wasn’t as crazy rapids but was still so beautiful and a great experience. Loved this activity so much, would definitely recommend.
