We took 5 people on a raft with our guide Caden on the Upper River, and white water rafting with Caden as our guide was the highlight of our trip to the Smokey’s. He was a great time, friendly, experienced, enthusiastic and encouraging. Our group had an amazing time and white water rafting with Big Creek Expeditions and it is easily worth every penny.

I’m late writing this review but really wanted to give Big Creek, and especially our guide, Sam, their flowers.Whitewater rafting was one of our family’s favorite activities this trip. Between this and our drive through the Smokies, our kids may finally be converted from “waterparks/amusement parks or nothing” to “wow, nature could be our amusement park”.It was my husband and kids’s first time rafting and we had so much fun. It was the perfect mix of beautiful scenery and thrills. Both kids ranked jumping into the river, holding onto the raft, and being pulled back in among their top three moments of the entire trip. Their only regret was not sitting in the front to get wetter, but there’s always next time!Sam turned a great experience into a truly amazing one He tailored the trip perfectly to our family, sharing nature and history with the adults while delighting the kids with spooky stories. He was also a great judge of how much excitement our family could handle and rowed tirelessly to give us a maximum splash effect despite the lower level of the river that day.We hope to be back in pigeon forge and will make sure to come visit again.

They treat you very well. But the number of rapids have gone down after the flooding. But it’s still worth it though.

Visiting from Florida and had the best time! It was my first time going and the process buying the tickets and check in were simple. The guides were awesome, we went with the all day package and had two guides Paul and Darrel U both were friendly and informative of the local area. I learned a lot about the town and history and had a blast navigating the waters. 10/10 would recommend for any beginner.
