We had a great time rafting with Whitewater Challengers over Labor Day Weekend. Our guide Nick was awesome! I was very nervous before the trip as this was my first experience rafting but Nick made me feel comfortable and welcome. Would certainly recommend this company to friends/family. I would sugg...
White water Trip was awesome now spending time at camp ground plenty of activities clean will be back again with a girl scout troop everyone is very happy
Great day trip for families! The guides here are fun and engaging and it's obvious they genuinely care about making this a great experience for their guests. Roberto, especially, was so awesome and his presence there was one of the highlights of our trip! We had a 9:40 check-in, which went really s...
We did the upper potion of the river and was lacking. Class 1-3, but more like 1&2. Only good thing is that the guides are in their own boats. This is good for beginners, I don't recommend if you want something more challenging. Fun if you like throwing buckets of water at your friends. I was b...
We had a great experience...being our first whitewater trip. The guides paired us up with another family and that really made it fun. Others have advised us to go on dam release day and i have to say that really made the trip more exciting. we went to the gorge the next day and the water level wa...
I have done canoeing, kayaking and white-water rafting on various rivers dozens of times. Given its proximity to NY/Phil, the Lehigh is a great choice and there a few outfits in the area that do good work.
On our most recent trip, I took 13 BoyScouts on a rainy, spring "Dam Release" weekend (wh...
They have no refunds apparently they overcharge tents and cabins the cabins don t have mattresses lights outlets or a bathroom and it s condition is dirty with dead bugs and spiderwebs everywhere the staff may look friendly but they re pretty much just looking for money .
went of a trip with scouts. they allowed water guns for the biger rafts and we had a big war on the water. water was cold i fell in but quickly got back in because they told us what to do on the bus. they took pictures of us also. but re apply sunscreen if you burn easy! my nee was really bad after ...
The whole experience was done well. The only issue was not giving the rafters helmets. 3 people that I knew of fell in. With all the rocks in the water, you would think that was a no brainier. The guide's were good. Many rafters were novices and needed more instructions. They do a lot to make it a v...
Had the best time ever.. prices are well worth it. Although they do not have a free bbq after.. they do have hot food and good/great instructors.. best time to go is when the damn is released in my opinion
Best outfitter on the Lehigh River. Knowledge and fun guides will ensure you have a safe and super fun trip. Also offers camping, mountain biking, paint ball, and hiking trips in addition to rafting.
Lots of fun, but they really have to work on the cleanliness of the bathrooms. Was considering camping here but the bathrooms are so gross I just couldn't. But the actual water rafting is so much fun, especially with bigger groups.
Great time..! We had a staff member (Sarah) ride down the river with us and she was so helpful and fun. Sarah gave her 100% to give us an awesome experience and we all had a blast. Our river guide Trey was SUPER.! Great personality and very informative. We will be doing this again.!
Came here for a summer camp trip and it was amazing! I loved how were were allowed to jump off the rafts at certain spots! The place is just so beautifull and such a great experience!
Had an outstanding time. My first there but not the last. Can't wait to do it again. All of the staff were very friendly and very helpful. The guides were great. I will definitely be back! Thank you.
We go every year and have a blessed that is one of our yearly religions just want to know when the Rapids are going to be bigger we heard they are bigger where you're at
Excellent time and so much fun!! Dylan was a great guide and all the employees were knowledgeable and friendly! Plus all were concerned with providing safety for their guests!
We had an amazing trip on the upper gorge. The booking and check-in process was smooth and easy. Make sure you listen to the river guides simple directions. The day was incredible and scenic. It was a great intro to white water rafting. Can't wait to try their NY location.
Went on the upper section of the Lehigh river which is supposed to be a 2-3 difficulty. It was fun and enjoyable. Best for novice groups as it is still challenging and take things very slowly, even stopping the whole group when one raft is stuck on a rock. Not that much time to jump in the water and...
Worst rafting trip ever and I m an experienced rafter/kayaker. Was on the premier trip on July 21st. There were way to many boats on the water. Checking in, getting our life jackets and traveling to the river was fine. From that point forward the trip went down hill. We had 20 boats in our group...
My son found a tick on his leg because they were told not to go to the right and stay to the left and then in the middle of that, there was an island so we were told to stay to the left. The water was pulling my child to the right into the island which would have forced them to go to the right and n...
We were a group of 6 and joined the morning white water rafting. Check-in process for rafting was quick and well-directed. I like how organized it was. We had so much fun. The waves were awesome. I recommend friends and families to check out this place and all activities they offer. I would definite...
Awesome Rafting Trip. Brandon is an awesome tour guide. Bob played harmonica in some of our calm swim spots. So fun. Highly recommend this rafting company. The entire experience is very well organized and well run.
First time going . Weather was great and check in was well organized . Their did seem to be quite a bit of waiting around prior and during the tour. The biggest issue was our tour guide Jake who was very unpleasant from the start and was literally yelling at our group for getting stuck on a rock. W...
My family and I had a blast this weekend of August 1 as guests of Whitewater Challengers. Our white water rafting activity was scheduled at 8:10am on Saturday morning. All the staff were very professional and welcoming, check in was swift and easy breezie. Most importantly they respected the CDC gui...
The place was clean but they took too long to explain before they could go to the river The guide on the river was rushing no time to enjoy the water !
Fun, affordable experience! My friends and I paid for the package where we stayed at the campgrounds and also did the white water rafting. The staff was excellent, the campgrounds were equipped with food and essentials, and overall it was a great experience.
This place was amazing! It was super organized and very clean. They clean and sanitize all vests and wetsuits. They also do a great job with practicing social distancing. The guides do an excellent job with showing you how to raft and make it fun and hilarious at the same time.
I threw a bachelor party there and we had the best time of our life. I recommend this place very friendly and a great atmosphere.. will definitely come again
Our Boy Scout troop went there for a campout and the campsites, bathrooms, and showers were very clean. the Guides and staff were very nice and we overall had a very good time.
A large group of people go boating is a very special experience. You will get wet when you are ready to go. From head to toe ^ _ ^ It is best to bring a raincoat and swimming shoes. They have a meal to eat. If you bring anything on board, be sure to seal it with a plastic bag first, or it will get w...
Booked a bachelor party rafting trip over a month prior to the actual trip, for 9 guys. They call me the day before (less than 18 hrs) before the trip and let me know the dam release schedule has changed and the rafting will now only be a level 1. I was little disappointed, but it is understandable....
Whitewater challengers is a great place to work and a great place to have fun. I am a bus driver there for 26 year's and rafted probably 22 years. Great owner and great management. Love it
Family of 5 did Hudson River Gorge trip and had a great day. The whole operation was organized from start to finish and could tell that the staff was centered around making sure customers had a great experience. Our guide, Nick, was great. Couldn't have asked for anything more. He was very passionat...
We took our Boy Scout Troop camping for 2 nights with whitewater rafting on the Saturday. They had a great experience, great camp site and a great time on the rafts. The Scoutmaster were appreciative of warm showers, clean toilets, great coffee, experienced and patient staff. Troop 68 will be coming...
It was our first time rafting with this place and it was great. Grounds were clean, staff was friendly and everything was on time.
When we got on the water, the guides made sure we all knew what we needed to do and kept us from going in the rocky part to avoid getting stuck. The lunch stop was fu...
Great experience with our girl scout troop. Nice campsites, clean bathroom, friendly staff. The busses and rafts were in nice condition, the instructors were great...kept us safe and made it fun, with great personality and humor. We cooked on our fire, but the option to buy meals at pavilion was nic...
Amazing staff. Great rafting. And Lorrie; a staff member at the snack bar, was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. We are super happy and will be definitely coming back. Love this place.
These guys do a good job and that's why I am giving them 5 stars but just be aware that it's a 45 minute bus ride from their base to the drop off and while you may not mind it on your way to the drop off, coming back is a completely different ball game because you'll be soaking wet!
They were overcrowded, too many people, ran out of rafts, made our group of 14 paid patrons squeeze onto 2 rafts, (7 to a raft) making it too heavy to row, hard to control, too much weight causing a lag, extra paddling, & getting caught on rocks frequently. Just an all over bad day, not to mention t...
My boyfriend and I went rafting yesterday down the Indian and Hudson River. We had a really good group with us. Our guide, Nick was absolutely amazing! I hope the company realizes how privileged they are to have him working for them as a guide. I could tell how passionate he was about what he does. ...
Great experience, very well organized, you can rent or buy all the necessities there reasonably. Our group did the premier option, it was a good challenge, great exercise, the sun is strong on the open lake so cover up, water temperature at 64 was refreshing late june, and you will get wet. guide...
We did rafting first time in our life on 8/16/2019 and 3 of us didn't l know swimming. But the instructors on the trip were so knowledgeable and made us real comfortable with the whole trip. Our raft got stuck few times in the rocks and was taken out of it by instructor. 5 * and I would really rec...
I have been rafting on the Lehigh for almost 15 years and have used most of the outfitters organizing trips on the river. In my opinion Whitewater Challengers is the best. They have a great facility and an attentive and helpful staff.
Yesterday on went on an inflatable kayak trip with them. The t...
fun trip and great way to get outside and do something w/ a group despite covid. very organized and knowledgeable guides - prepped us before the trip and along the river before more difficult rapids. kept us together, but also let us enjoy the river and rafting at our own pace. was very nervous init...
