Toller Guide! Tolle >Tour
Tour & besonders der Guide auf dem Raft war super. Der Raft war leider kurz, aber hat Spaß gemacht und war ein Erlebnis! Wir haben die Tour bereits vor 9 Jahren gemacht, da war sie noch länger. Aber der Spaß war trotzdem da. Es gab aber auch 1 Kritikpunkt: Das bei bookme steht, man soll Bar noch mal 30 AUD p.P. bei der Abholung bezahlen ist nicht transparent genug. So hatten wir keine 70 AUD (inkl. Schuhleihe) dabei. Andere Gäste mussten uns aushelfen. Abgesehen davon, dass man vorher mit Kreditkarte bezahlt, entzieht sich der Sinn diese Dinge nicht auch schon vorab zu bezahlen (Nutzungsgebühr für den Fluss & Schuhleihe) - Sinnvoll wäre es auch in der Mail zu erwähnen.

Fantastic experience
Peter and I had a great time while white water rafting. The team leaders were very experienced and made the whole experience fun along with all safety. I never realized how much you had to do other than just sit on the edge of the raft. Our leader made sure we knew what to do in any situation. I would recommend this company and go back again when in North Qld.

Amazing experience, amazing crew
What a great experience we had. We enjoyed everything, foaming fury crew, their quality boats, river, nature and special thanks to our guide Sam (Sambo the Rambo) who did amazing job and he made sure we enjoy as well as we are safe when we were not swimmers. Great crew
