Our crew

The service was great. Everything from booking until ending the trip was a success. We really enjoyed ourselves!

Fun times
Ashley M.

This was one of the best adventures my family and I have experienced together. The company does a great job with keeping you informed leading up to your day and had people along the river just in case you need help. We were able to bring water guns and take a few stops to eat or just to get in the water. Along the route we met so many people that were just as excited as we were. My family and I will be making this an annual day trip!

My friends and I had a great time rafting with Sunshine rafting Adventures. We brought two coolers one with food wrapped up in plastic and one with beverages. There are a few times you have to row either to avoid Rough Waters or trees on the bank of the river, but overall it was a beautiful relaxing trip with friends. Cell phone protectors and drink holders are a must. The guides were very helpful and friendly . I'll definitely be going again.

Shiloh and his team were amazing, we were a group of 150 people, and his team handled our team very well. Also Josh helped us alot too on the event day. Appreciate all your team.

Sunshine Rafting!!

Omg this was an amazing trip for us! All 7 of us had an amazing time! The staff was helpful and friendly. They gave us a short instruction/orientation before we got in the raft. We packed lunch, drinks, and snacks in a large (and heavy) cooler that we were able to take with us on the raft. Tip: Bring water guns like we did-many rafters squirt each other with squirt guns along the river! :D This is fun for everyone but I especially recommend it it if you have kids! The raft and ores were sturdy. They also provided life jackets for everyone. There were several places to stop along the way including a few rope swings! There were also staff members along the river to direct you in some areas and advise you on the very few areas of the river that were slightly challenging. At the end of the trip they bus you back to the parking lot. This was not a tough river to navigate. The ages in our raft ranged from 11 years old to 60 years old and we all did quite well! Before the trip I emailed and requested to add more people to our raft. The staff was very friendly, responsive, and accommodating. They also provide a photo of your rafters after the trip via Facebook for no additional cost, super nice! This is an EPIC trip for families and friends! I highly recommend it! We plan to go at least once a year now!

We had an amazing trip! My husband and I took 3 teenage girls and our 5 year old. Check in was super easy and a short walk down to the water. After equipment pick up and a quick safety talk, we were on our way! Everyone there was super helpful and friendly! The water was low, cold and slow for the most part, which was good for our first timers. If you want a faster more exciting ride, go in the beginning of the season! We brought lunch and snacks which we were able to stop half way through to eat. Theres a photographer after the first rapid and the pics were already posted by the time we were done! Take out was seamless and everyone was so helpful! We all had a great time! Highly recommended! Can't wait to go back!

We rented two rafts for two families plus our exchange students. We have used Sunshine Rafting a couple times in the past which were 5star experiences also, but this go we were required to have a guide for each raft due to the river flowing at a swift rate. So glad we had guides! We stop half way for a lunch break (bring your own lunch in a water proof container). Mitchell and Brett were cool and experienced guides. Our experience from beginning to end was wonderful and we will use them again! What to bring: Sunscreen Hat Swimsuit Lunch Bottled water Water launchers Waterproof speaker for music

Went with a group of family. Had the best time! Your able to take an ice chest on the raft. With food and drinks. You have a time limit to reach the half way point. If you dont make it by the time limit your not able to proceed to the end of the river. Which i believe would have been fine. Your able to pull over in certain areas and rest or eat! The water was a bit shallow but i felt safe. My first time rafting and i cant wait to do it again! Definitely worth it!

My family and I have been going every year since 2018. It is pretty fun and it is safe enough to take little kids. The kids have so much fun, we are able to take lunch and stop by rest places at the river. We will continue to do this activity every year.

Easy float down the river.
Jacquelyne G.

I went with a group in late June and we had a great time. There were 8 people in our boat. It was a smooth, easy ride down the river with a few rapids here and there, but nothing to be frightened of. I highly recommend waterproofing everything! Even your sandwiches inside your cooler, we didn't put our sandwiches in a ziplock and we had soggy sandwiches. Everything inside the boat will get wet - soaking wet! It was a great time! The guides were amazing, so helpful and friendly. Lots of cool places to stop for lunch along the river.

Cool cliff you can jump off
Karen M.

Super Fun and such a great experience! The water was of course super cold but it was also about 100 degrees so it sort of balanced out. The rafting experience was 4-5 hours for us as we stopped multiple times to snack and take a break. You don't need much paddling as the river just flows but it is pretty slow, only a few rapids. It all depends on how fast or slow you want to go. Recommend to take: -sunscreen! -cooler for drinks and food -water shoes Be prepared to be sore the next day!

See all

Ask the Community - Sunshine Rafting Adventures

Can you swim?

If you are asking "can you go swimming in the parks", the answer is yes, but you need to wear a life jacket when swimming in the river.

Do you pay per person or just the raft itself?

The fee charged is per person. I believe the minimum number of persons per raft is 4 and the max is 9. Hope that helps

Are dogs welcomed on the raft?

Do not bring any pets (this is an adventure activity, and while some pets might be able to handle it, most absolutely freak out when going through rapids, and not in a good way).
