 Verified Fun Time!
Was an awesome trip! Nik was a great guide! The water was a little cold but you mostly didn't notice. They also let you pick if you want to fall out or not!

 Verified Great experience
This is my 3rd trip with Big Frog Expeditions. Johnny, the general manager and guide, is a great and he has a great staff to take you and your group down the river. Already planning a trip next spring with friends and use their bunk house on the premise. I've had two trips with them and my scout troop, where they have worked with people afraid of rafting, and those who struggle with the guidelines with class and grace. We camp there as well. Totally will use this group as long as I am planning rafting trips.

 Verified Best birthday ever
My family friends and I celebrated my birthday on the Ocoee river with the best crew there is! We had two boats full of people and our guide was Hannah. She was so sweet and made us feel extremely safe and made sure we had the best time possible. The staff was so friendly, lively, and made sure we all had the best time possible. We had such a fantastic time that I decided I am going to make it a tradition to celebrate my birthday every year on the Ocoee river with Big Frog!

 Verified Awesome time!
Good times for sure! My boys and I, along with some friends, went down the river with Johnny as our guide and we had the best time! He knows the river and all the things to do along it! Staff is friendly and knowledgeable! I’ve rafted many times with several other companies, but Big Frog is where we go now! It’s the definitely the best!!!

 Verified Fantastic Adventure Class White Water Rafting
Fantastic Adventure Class, white water rafting. We rafted with 4 grandchildren in one raft and two friends in the raft with my wife and I. Both guides were excellent. Our guide was ERIC, the other guide was Garrett. You can request them. They were both very professional and let us know their job was to keep us safe, but give a thrilling ride. We did the upper and middle Ocoee-which is considered Full River. Lunch was included in the price. Pasta and Sandwich on the side of the river was great. A local lady caters the lunches, with most produce from her garden. This is our 8th raft trip with Big Frog and we will be back next summer with our grand children. Being 70 years old is not a problem for this trip!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you're looking for an exhilarating adventure on the water, look no further than Big Frog Rafting Tours on the Ocoee River! From the moment we arrived, it was clear that we were in for a fantastic experience. The staff was incredibly welcoming and knowledgeable, making us feel right at home.

The Ocoee River itself is a breathtaking backdrop for an unforgettable day. The crystal-clear waters and stunning scenery are just the beginning. Our guide was not only skilled but also made the trip fun with their infectious enthusiasm and deep understanding of the river's rapids. They expertly navigated us through the thrilling Class III and IV rapids, ensuring we felt safe while still getting our adrenaline pumping!

What truly sets Big Frog apart is their commitment to customer experience. They provided all the necessary gear, including high-quality life jackets and helmets, and took the time to teach us the basics of rafting before we hit the water. The safety briefing was thorough, and it was evident that they prioritize the well-being of their guests.

The tour itself was perfectly paced, with just the right blend of excitement and relaxation. We had ample opportunities to take in the stunning views, snap some photos, and even take a refreshing dip in the river. The camaraderie among our group was fantastic, and it felt like we were all part of one big adventure. Overall, Big Frog Rafting Tours exceeded all expectations and delivered an unforgettable experience. Whether you're a seasoned rafter or a first-timer, this is an adventure you don't want to miss. Highly recommended!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Monkey and Eric were great guides for our family rafting trip. Monkey kept us in the know, in advance; preparing us for fun (and intentional) spins down 'Slingshot' and successful movement through the other waters.  Eric kept things fun and light--he knows how to work a room with his bright energy! Thanks for the awesome trip to the guides and Johnny (driver), you guys rock!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My family and I were led by Joey for this White Water Rafting trip, and we all agree it was an absolute delight. From the beautiful surroundings, the good people, and the rocky(metaphorically/literally) waters there are neither any complaints nor unfulfilled wishes. The clear instructions provided by our guide and the other guides as well provided for a smooth ride. We hope to come again next time we visit.
