You can tell how professional and experienced he and the team were. Thought it would be super cold in October but the wetsuit and gear provided kept us warm enough. Huge importance was given to safety without compromising the fun and it was very assuring for a non swimmer like me. Overall it was one of the most fun experience we had in NZ. The river was absolutely beautiful and the local history and the little prayer our guide did right before the big drop made the experience even better. My only complaint is I wished it was longer! Big respect to all the guides. Will definitely come back over and over again.
