These trips are great for a family of all ages. There is no experience necessary. You will be accompanied by trained raft guides. There is a short safety course that the guides will go over with you before you hit the water.  This is an activity that requires the whole family to cooperate as one team.  Husbands and wifes,brothers and sisters will come away with a closer bond and memories for life. There are some companies who offer all day trips with lunch.

If your planning a Gatlinburg vacation then you will be at the central hub for access to most of these rafting companies. Be sure to stay in a cabin or chalet with a hot tub to rest your waterlogged bones.
