Our group of 10 had an amazing time! Our guide Joey was so friendly, so knowledgeable and such a kind, patient guide. We did the lower float and we all said that we'd love to go back one day and do the upper tour. Definitely an experience we'll all remember.

As the Pigeon River comes out of the steeper parts of the gorge it calms down a bit. Beginning at our outpost, the Lower Section of the Pigeon River is perfect for those looking for a scenic float trip of the Smoky Mountains. Ages 3 and up. Experience is not required, and each raft will have one of our professional guides.

I highly recommend this for anyone traveling to the area. We had people in our party from 4 to 73 and everyone had a blast. Our guide Caeden was knowledgeable and fun.

We had a great time on the river with our guide, Daryl B! We had wanted to do the upper river but unfortunately storms from last week damaged the road needed to access that part of the river. We still enjoyed the scenery and the time together. After our trip, we had lunch from the food trucks next to big creek. The food was good! We will definitely return in the future to raft on the upper river!
