We experienced a great time on the mountain biking expedition through Big Frog!! Our guide, Yile (SP?), was outstanding!! She prepped us for the trails, the area, and what to experience. The trails were dirt/gravel, with some great views of the mountains and rivers. Would do it all over again!

I have done another river several times and the guide I always use, told me that I needed to try a more adventurous river. He recommended the Ocoee and Big Frog as the outfit to go with; I owe him a big "thank you". I did the whole experience, rented a tent for the night and chose the whole day... More

We did the upper/middle combo trip. What a great time we had! We went through the Olympic part of the course and made it through with no problem.(can't say that for others). We stopped after the upper section for lunch. A pretty good spread was served. Then onto the middle section. An exhausting but fun time. Highly recommend Big Frog... More

We went in the Upper & Middle trip this Saturday & are definitely hooked on white water rafting. Big Frog Expiditions Rafting Company had a great price, well worth our money. The staff was extremely informative and funny. They all seemed to love what they do for a living and made our trip one to always remember. Lunch was very... More

We just finished a great trip down the river with Big Frog. We had our trip planned for 11:30, which I thought was a little late in the day but it turned out to be a great trip. We booked the upper & middle with lunch. There were fewer people on the river - we had 3 in our raft... More

There are plenty of reviews about the rapids and such, so here is our review of the whole experience, including camping on site. I hope you find this helpful in planning your trip! :) We had 4 people in our party, we'd all bought a groupon for rafting. The return policy is clearly stated on their website, and it is... More

My crew of 4 travelled the middle river with Joey. It was his first trip of the 2012 season. Never did we feel as if we were in danger. We had an excellent crew that followed his commands and he was able guide the raft into the class 4 rapids with ease. Only once during the trip did he yell... More

We had a great experience with Big Frog this past weekend. We had 4 adults and 4 kids (ages 16, 15, 12 and 12). The whole process was very smooth from check in to return to the outpost. Our guides (we had 2 rafts for 8 people) were both very professional and fun at the same time. I would definitely... More

Our rafting trips with Big Frog are always fun! We always have very knowledgable guides and we had a problem with another rafting company taking our money and not providing a service, and Big Frog helped us out with that too. I can't say enough about this Rafting Company! Try them, you won't be disappointed.
