Our group of 5 adults had the most wonderful time! The water was great, our guide was hilarious, and there was lots of beautiful scenery. I definitely want to do more rafting in the future. Highly recommend them for a fun day on the water!

This was my wife and daughter's first rafting trip and the tour guides made them feel extremely comfortable. The guides are knowledgeable, professional, and really care about the rafters and their business. 100% worth the trip!

This is our second Wenatchee whitewater rafting trip with River Recreation. I can't tell you how much fun we had, our kids had a blast! This is our fifth time whitewater rafting and we all agreed it is the most fun we had thus far.
