Our entire family loved this trip. Our kids are ages 8 - 13 and spent the entire rapids portion yelling and screaming with joy. Our only option was to go on the Ultimate (because of the time of month we were in the area), but even our youngest had a blast. Although, as his mom, I did spend most of the trip a little stressed that he'd fall out, but he did great. Our driver, Dave, was great and seemed to know when we needed some calm water for a bit. He let us out to do some mud-sliding and even to swim upriver for a bit after the big waves were done.
Even though our rafting was the 1.5 hour trip, we ended up spending several hours there because we arrived early. Laurie was friendly and had lots of outdoor game equipment available. The private shower rooms for afterward were much appreciated, as was the BBQ.
All in all, it was the most expensive thing we did on our trip, but I'd do it again in a heartbeat if we lived in-province!
Awesome fun, fantastic ride, amazeing adventure...What a blast !
I've highly recommended this vacation activity to EVERYONE I've spoken to since we got home. I had been wanting to do this for years !, but was waiting and trying to have all my children be able to come along as well. Glad I didn't wait any longer; it was the highlight of our trip. Can't wait to do it again, hopefully with some of my family and/ or friends !
Thanks for your awesome comments!!
Clay was awesome! He knew the river very well, took us mudsliding even though it wasn't included in our short tour, and made sure we hit all the waves we could. He even switched our positions in the boat to make sure we all got the the full experience and gave us a lot of history on the Tidal Bore. Great experience, would return in a heartbeat.
I went in a group of 8, ages ranging from 5 to 47. Being 8, we had a boat to ourselves and had the best time. I wasn't sure what to expect, my sister had recommended this activity. She went twice in one season, she loved it so much. Our group's guide, Matt, was super nice. With young kids, we took the 90 minute tour and it was perfect. We had hot dogs at the end which topped the day. In the words of my 5 YO niece, "Best day ever!!"
That's awesome!! So glad you enjoyed yourselves! I know Matt really enjoyed your group as well!!
We did "The Ultimate" tour and it was a blast! Hours of large overhead tidal waves engulfing the zodiac. There is a nice break in the middle where you can play in the mud and go for a swim. Emily was our guide and she was amazing! She shared lots of information with us and was a great driver. Food is provided afterwards, as well as all the gear you'll need.
We booked a rafting experience with Shubanacadie River Adventure Tours for just before labour day 2018. We planned it so we could have some time to get to the airport afterwards. Unfortunately, mother nature has her own schedule. The tide was late and it looked like we would miss out completely. The people at Shubanacadie River Adventure Tours were sympathetic and called around to try and find us another company at a different point along the river and they found an option which worked.
Thank you for helping us.... and for going the extra mile when you are busy too.
we will see you next year.
