Great time down the river
My wife and 9 year old son had great time. There is a lot of paddling with your arms and can fatigue your arms towards the end of your strength/fitness is low. But they both enjoyed it a lot
Lot of fun
Nothing to be nervous with, the flow is super slow apart from a couple rapids. Great day. There is no toilet or changing stops so be ready to go!
