Luke and Mark were brilliant on the water. Mark brilliant driver on the narrow road. Would have loved a hot drink when we finished. But a great time.

First time we have done this, and we both thoroughly enjoyed it. Simon and the crew made for an enjoyable experience. Spay yourself with insect repellent as there are quite a few sandflies around

Family adventures rafting was great, shuttle drivers holly and Luke did a good job trying to make the trip as best as could be, the road through skippers canyon was brutal, holly was amazing, arrrived at base camp to get kitted up with thermals and wetsuit, then off up river for a great trip back, Mark was our guide and photographer, he was great, good knowledge and sense of humour and most importantly knew the river well. They stopped along the way for a cool dip and then a rock jump into the fresh water, 🥶🥶🥶 then back to base for a cookie time before the return up skippers canyon. Would we recommend to people with kids, In the words of our 11 year old “it was fully sick bruh” so yes we would.

We had such a wonderful time! Our tour guide was a local and he was very friendly and helpful. It turned out we were the only family in this tour. And they didn’t cancel on us. So basically they gave us a private rafting tour. We were very grateful and thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. Everything was provided including wet suits. Even though the water was cold, we still jumped into the water and got some terrific photos. Highly recommend.
