Cool and awesome ride

We booked this for a hens party and we all had a great time! Most of us came back soaked, which was part of the experience we wanted, and learnt some really cool facts about the river. The driver was really nice and funny and happily answered our 50 questions haha. Would definitely recommend and would 100% do it again.
Thanks guys!
