Best Experience Ever!
Sep 2021 • Couples
We went into our adventure with no knowledge of rafting and “The Rev” Dean made sure we were 100% up to speed and he was super cool! Not to mention he is 73 years old!! 😳. We will be back and we will bring others with us to experience this awesome adventure we’ve checked off our bucket list! Thank you to the entire staff for not only keeping us safe, but making sure we enjoyed every second of our time with you guys! We will see you next season for sure!

Highlight of our Trip in Gatlinburg
Sep 2021
My friends and I went white water rafting last weekend and had Eli as our guide. He was so fun and entertaining, gave us many recommendations on other actives to do around the area and definitely made the experience. We all agreed that it was the highlight of our time in Tennessee. Would recommend to anyone looking for a bit of an adrenaline rush and lots of laughs!

Great afternoon on a beautiful river!

Had a great time, with the water level cooperating perfectly! Emily was a great guide, which allowed us to hit all of the "fun" spots, and she had our whole boat laughing.

Great rafting outfitters! Robin Rocks!!
What a great outfit to use when whitewater rafting! All the guides are competent, safety conscious, and friendly! The guide in our boat was Robin and she was so talented dealing with all our personalities and allowing us to have fun too! Emily was the guide for the rest of our group and led them to sneak up to us for an ambush. Yet when in white water everyone was all business to keep us safe. The river was perfect for any age and physical ability. I highly recommend!!
