We've been white-water rafting once before. This was an exciting, fun experience. Way better than our Costa Rica experience even!The rapids are rated a 3. Sydney, our guide, was very knowledgeable, fun and related to each of us individually. She did a great job!! Would definitely recommend!!

We had an excellent adventure down the Ocoee with the best guide! Hunter, our guide, was confident, in control of the raft, had great commentary and was generally a lot of fun! You want a confident experienced guide, who is informative and has a sense of humor! Hunter was the best! All in all we would definitely recommend Cherokee Rafting! 10/10 experience! Ask for Hunter!
