We had a group of 6. White water rafting was something we all heard good things about but we've never tried it before so none of us knew what to expect going in (thought it was literally just a 20 min ride down the river and that was that). Our buddy booked it for us so we went into it with no expectations. The whole experience was great. We had a private raft with a party of 6 and ended up having one of the most memorable experiences of our lives (If you are not prepared to flip over into the water, a 12-person raft would probably be a better choice for you).

Rod aka HotRod, aka Oldballz, was an exceptional guide. He played such a big part as to why we had such a great time. His experience, humour, and overall enjoyment for life rubbed off on all of us. Rod gave us nothing but good vibes. From the initial bus ride, to grabbing equipment and walking to the river, to learning about safety and basics, to riding the waves, everything was done properly. I wasn't the strongest swimmer, but felt very safe even though flipping over about 5 times (Rod made sure we got to experience the flips ;) Our day trip consisted of lots of rafting, a bbq lunch, jumping off the cliff, and enjoying what the resort had to offer later. Leaving in the evening back to Toronto, we were happy to be alive, exhausted, and created many fond memories. We'll be back. ROD WE SEE YOU!
