A brilliant experience. While the meeting area is very rustic and basic, Marcel gave us a warm welcome and was really helpful & knowledgeable on what to do. The trip down the river and through the many rapids was fantastic. Not difficult and great fun for the family. We’d definitely do this again. Stunning location and scenery. Remember to look up and around you to take it all in. Thank you Marcel.
