Laurel Highlands River Tours reviews
4Have now gone on two separate trips.we absolutely love this group.the guides are great (our most recent was Kylie) great for all ages and skill levels.they also have go pro mounts on the helmets if you are into recording your trip.we will be back for another trip next summer.also very close to seven springs and the flight 93 memorial.we made a whole week of the trip.
Our guide Jess did a phenomenal job. The lower is a perfect trip for someone who wants a little excitement and doesn't want to worry about it being too dangerous. The only part that sucked was carrying the raft up a hill from the river. I highly recommend Laurel Highlands and the lower trip.
We had a guided trip with Rodney and it was absolutely incredible! He was very calm and showed us the proper ways to navigate the rapids. Great experience
It was an absolutely great experience. We've done a premium tour with a group of six twice so far. Both trips were great for different reasons.
The premium tour gives you your own guide and includes lunch. When you're ready to eat, you pick a rock or somewhere to beach your boat and take a break. We ate lunch on a bunch of rocks, watching other people going through the rapids.
Going down the lower Yough, you will go through a bunch of rapids. Depending on the time of year and the weather, the water can get pretty rough. We did have someone fall out of the boat on our first trip. It was scary, but our guide was calm and knew what to do. After a few minutes, we were all back in the boat, catching our breath.
There's a large rock about halfway through that you can jump off of. Pull the boat up on the beach area, spend about a minute walking up the back of the rock, and jump back into the river. It's quick, but definitely a rush.
Overall, the river is beautiful, and the experience is great.
