What Guests Are Saying
By middle of day 2 we were a confident and established team with wonderful meals whipped up by our perfectly pitched guides, larking and screaming our way down grade 2/3 Rapids while contemplating the massive beauty of the Canadian wilderness.
- Dr. Jocelyn (Tripadvisor)This trip is the perfect amount of fun, thrill and rejuvenation all wrapped into one. The guides are fantastic with lots of knowledge on the surrounding area and river safety. They do a great job of making the group feel like we were friends from the beginning even though we didn't' all know each other before arriving at the resort. The food was also great. Everything tastes better when you work for it too!
