This Wenatchee River Whitewater Rafting Adventure was the highlight of our Leavenworth, WA anniversary weekend getaway! Nick/Jelly Belly was our guide, he was knowledgeable, personable, and experienced. The safety guide also gave an introductory safety 101. My nerves were at ease for a first time rafter! We were lucky to have an amazing sunny day in mid-April, the water was cold but refreshing. Our guide took us on all the routes that ensured a thrilling experience! We were told to come back in June when the river would be even more thrilling! We're gathering friends and will be back! The only advice I'd give future rafters, don't forget your go-pros!!!! Thank you Jelly Belly! you were worth the 50% tip :)

I really faffed up and we were an HOUR late. Despite this Tim made it work. He is FASCINATING and very funny. I am really looking forward to doing another of his tours but in a different area. We had a tremendously fun evening and I strongly recommend Tim to anyone who has even a vague interest in beer. Also afterwards we had the option of hanging about with him and his lovely wife but we had to head home back to the dogs-which in hindsight we could have brought with us.
