Definitely a tour that must not be overlooked. Staff make you feel really comfortable and thier knowledge of the river system is really informative. The fun bit is definitely going through the rapids. Interesting to note that the section of river you travel on is also the film site of some high profile movies, but you'll have to take the tour to find out more. When we went it was raining but didn't really detract from the experience.
