Wildwater- Ocoee River Basin Canopy Tours — Local services in Ducktown

After looking through a multitude of other amazing whitewater rafting companies, we chose Wildwater. Without knowing what the other companies are like, we can now confidently say that we were incredibly happy with our choice.

The staff got right to work once we arrived. They were thorough when they went though the training and safety procedures. They made sure we knew exactly what we were doing before we got into the water.

The main guide, Mark (I hope I got his name right), was excellent with teaching us and telling stories. Our guides were Jared and Jon T. Jared was finishing his last day of training. We felt secure the entire trip. I'd like to think that years of canoeing and kayaking also played a part. Jared and Jon T were great at telling us all about the upcoming 3 and 4 rapids and leading us through them. Happy to say not one of us fell out of the raft any time through the trip.

Then we went zip lining. This was a fun way to to wind down after rafting. Tyler and Lilly were amazing! I’m not good with heights and I only feels concerned down the first line. After that, I felt completely secure and was hooting and hollering by the end of end of the run. Plus, they were a lot of fun to talk to and made our zip lining excursion so much fun. I highly recommend going zip lining, too!

My husband and kids had never gone whitewater rafting and I hadn't been in years. Today was an incredible experience, something we will certainly remember for years to come. And should we return to this area or any of the surrounding states to whitewater raft again, we'll absolutely choose...

Went down the middle Ocoee with my husband and son yesterday. I give 5 🌟 for the trip -1 🌟 for the guide. This was our 7th white water and our favorite thing to do together. We've always had the most amazing guides. This was the very first guide Tia who was at best absolutely NO fun. While she's all business and professional she appeared to be seemingly irritated at us. I think all of us were screamed at and scolded at a few times. Maybe just not a people person!! I laughed uncontrollably when she stated we were the best crew she had so far this season. My son said "can't imagine the other crews" as much a she showed her frustration with us. The guide can definitely make or break an anticipated trip down a river. Didn't know this...

Your team was awesome and our group had a great time. Price was extremely reasonable and much lower / more competitive than expected for such a great time—full afternoon with two legs of the river, catered lunch, etc. Our guides Kyle and Tia and our bus driver were GREAT - made the experience unique and memorable; they were super knowledgeable and relatable. Whole experience a 12 out of 10. Thank you for such a great time in Tennessee. ••• About the River: We did two legs of the river. Both had rapids as well as stretches of calm, and we were “fighting for our lives” (lol) and then jumping out to float down other parts of river. Total people ejected from raft: 1 out of...
