"We just wanted to let you
know that over the past week we had five (!) tubing and rafting experiences
with your company. We did the Nantahala River twice, tubed the Toccoa twice and
rafted the middle Ocoee once. Your company is exceptional and we HIGHLY
recommend you to any and all! Your guides were very entertaining and
experienced on each guided event that we did. We truly cannot say enough
wonderful things about our experience and your company!! Our guides made our
vacation the best we have ever had. Thanks again for a fantastic time!

"Just wanted to tell you guys
what a GREAT time we had on our Monday rafting trip with you!! Our guide was
awesome. We are already planning our trip for next year and so far our group
has doubled in size! Thank you again for a wonderful time. It was the best part
of our vacation." The Creamers
"Hey guys! We had a great
experience last year doing the Nantahala with Boy Scout Troop 811 so this year
we went as a family and did the Ocoee Double Trouble trip and had a blast! Our
guide had a great knowledge of the river and kept us safe and entertained. So
did the other guides in the sisters rafts. Well come back for
sure." Elcka Rangel
"We thoroughly enjoyed our
whitewater rafting experience and cannot wait to come again. Your company came
highly recommended to us by a good friend and we in-turn are doing the same.
You have earned that opportunity by the quality of customer service you
provided. We enjoyed your staff and the efforts of our guide who ensured that
we enjoyed ourselves. Thank you again and by the way you took great
pics
what a great reminder of the awesome time we had." Best

"I had the pleasure of being
on the Upper Ocoee and had a total blast! My sister and I felt so safe with our
guide (he saved us from eating it a few times). On top of making it back
unscathed, we also managed to have a fantastic time so much so that I
brought my mother with me today to try our hand on the lower section. The lower
was simply amazing and our guide was not only entertaining but at the top of
his game in safety and skill. I will be back every time I come up here. You
have my familys business for as long as the TVA puts water into the
Ocoee! P.S. You have the most attractive guides in Georgia totally worth
the money in boy-watching alone!" Lauren Clare, Cape Coral,
FL
"We have been doing this with
yall for 4 or more years and we just cant let the summer get by
without our usual trip down the river with Rolling Thunder! Every
time we have been it has been a BLAST! I thought after doing it a few times
that it would not be as much fun but I do believe that last year was as fun if
not more fun than the very first year. I believe that this
adventure is the most fun you can have in one day doing
anything." Holly Lowe
"Hello. We had a great trip
with you on the Ocoee and I also sent my family back yesterday to go tubing on
the Toccoa. We couldnt be happier with your company. The reservations
process was very easy and convenient, the front desk personnel were polite and
very helpful, the bus driver provided great in-transit humor and information
and our guide was excellent." Jeff Leben, JP Ridgeland Cabin Rentals,
Blue Ridge, GA
"Thank you so much for your
generosity toward us last Saturday when we came rafting. We all had a blast
even in the freezing cold weather! Everyone has been talking about how much fun
it was and now the entire chapter wants in on it. So I'm sure you will be
hearing from us again soon! Thanks for such an unforgettable
experience!" Kirsten Douglas, Zeta Tau Alpha, University of
Georgia
"We had a wonderful time
rafting the Ocoee Thursday morning and AGAIN Thursday afternoon! We will
definitely return next year for another exciting adventure. I almost "chickened
out" when I saw the rolling waters below the dam but our guide encouraged me to
go ahead with the trip and I am so glad that we did! Thanks so much for such an
exciting day! We've floated the Buffalo River here in Arkansas many times but
you haven't LIVED until you're RAFTED THE OCOEE !!!!! Thanks a million for the
memories." Sheila Sartin, MJ Sartin and Crews Veazey,
Arkansas
"Last Friday, as part of a
Smoky Mountain family reunion, 14 of us rafted the middle Ocoee. The youngest
was in her mid-teens and the oldest were borderline geriatrics. Most of us had
never rafted before and we LOVED it! We couldn't have picked a better company
than Rolling Thunder. My guide was funny but professional. The trip was wet,
wild and thrilling but I knew I was in good hands. All 14 of us agreed that
rafting was the highlight of our reunion. Thanks for an unforgettable
experience!" Suzanne Long, LaCross, Wisconsin
"I can't believe this could
be so much fun! Wish my first trip was at 15 - but still at age 50 I enjoyed
every minute and bump! I will definitely do it again. Our guide was great and
gave us a great trip." Rosa Fernandez
"Just wanted to drop ya'll a
quick line to say thanks for taking care of us on the Ocoee trip. It was a
great day for rafting and I have to say it was very nice to have everyone at
the rafting company recognize us when we arrived and take such good care to
make sure our trip went off without a hitch. You have a great bunch of people
there and I will highly recommend Rolling Thunder to anyone I speak with that
is interested in a rafting adventure. You have me as a customer for life and we
are already planning next year's trip. Once again, our guide gave us a rafting
trip that we will remember forever. Thanks again and see ya'll next
year." Ken Szostek, Sugar Land, TX
"We had a wonderful trip!
When I called and made reservations I had to change them, then I got mixed up
and didn't show up for the time I had scheduled. The people in the office were
great and had no hesitation of giving me another time that day. The guide was
wonderful. My friends and I intend on returning next year for a full river trip
and requesting our same guide. Thanks for a great experience!" Trina
Esposito, Franklin, TN
"Hello Fun People! Just
wanted to say THANKS again to all of you for such a great day on the river. We
had so much fun and everyone in our group of 14 are telling their friends about
you! Everyone has a great story to tell! We are hoping to get back up there
soon because we had so much fun!!! Thanks." Valerie and Guy
Fried
"Just wanted to send a thank
you for a fantastic experience! Four of us came from NY, MD and CA for our 1st
whitewater rafting ride last Thursday. We all had a fantastic time, the Ocoee
River was beautiful! Our guide was great on the river and helpful in pointing
out some fantastic mountain bike trails which we also took advantage of. The
bunkhouse and campgrounds were also perfect. We're already planning our trip
for next year! Rolling Thunder is by far the best! Thanks." Rich
Randazzo, Rusty, Dan and Taylor
"I recently was a customer
and had wonderful time. My family and I did not get a chance to personally tell
our guide how much that trip meant to each one of us. We know these guides see
thousands of people each year but we wanted him to know the impact he has made
on all of us as individuals. The guide was awesome my niece says and the rest
of us agree. Thank you all for making this the experience of a lifetime for all
of us." Lee Coffey, Winston-Salem, NC
"Just wanted to tell you that
we had a blast with you guys. All of our youth group want to make this an
annual trip. I am going to get up a trip for next year and open it up to the
entire church and not just the kids. I'll be touch soon. Thanks for everything.
Your staff was wonderful!" Patricia Bailey, Midland,
GA
"I cannot thank you all
enough for the wonderful experience we had this past weekend on the Ocoee
River. From the preplanning of the trip all the way to leaving on Sunday
morning, Rolling Thunder was nothing less than outstanding in service. We had a
few first time rafters on the trip and they absolutely loved the trip. The rest
of us who had been rafting before commented on how this was definitely one of
our best experiences. I know we were fortunate to have the best guides. These
guys did an excellent job and made sure each of our boats had the opportunity
to experience everything the river had to offer. We camped Saturday night at
the Nantahala and once again your staff proved themselves to be great. There is
no doubt in my mind that the next time I raft the Ocoee, it will be with
Rolling Thunder. Once again, thank you so much for making this rafting trip a
very pleasant and fun experience." Will King, Columbia,
SC
"On behalf of the UPS group
from Atlanta, I want to thank Rolling Thunder River Company for another great
year on the Ocoee River. This was my 4th trip and each year I try to bring 3 or
4 rookies. They also had a great time and look forward to returning again.
Hopefully we can get back up there before the end of the summer but if not
we'll definitely see you guys next year. Many thanks for a great trip
downstream !!!" Kevin Ponder, Atlanta, GA
"I just wanted to let you all
know that my daughter and I had a fantastic time this weekend camping, tubing
and rafting with ya'll. We are already planning our next trip and plan to do
the Upper and lower Ocoee. This time we're bringing a group of friends. Your
guides are great and we really enjoyed their entertaining banter. Thanks again
for an awesome time!" Richard Bell, Atlanta, GA
"Greetings from Michigan! I
would very much like to express my appreciation to Chelsea for a great
whitewater rafting trip down the Nantahala. I must admit that upon our arrival
I was going to make the trip against my will. I wasn't too sure rafting was for
me. Then we got to the river, ready to launch, and I found myself hoping that
the little girl who was our guide knew what she was doing. It wasn't long
before I realized that you knew exactly what you were doing. Plus your outgoing
personality combined with wit and humor soon put me at ease. You made it such a
memorable experience. Keep up the good work and thanks again!" Dale
Demerest, Zeeland, MI
"My family and I were so
PLEASED with the service and fun that your company provided us on our rafting

and we will be back!" Lisa Wade, Tampa, FL

enjoyed rafting with your company before we married and had kids. Today, we
brought our two sons with us. It was great! We will be back." Mike and

fun as our guide! We had a great time!" Sidney Betts

Harbor, Florida wants to thank you for a wonderful experience! We camped and
rafted the upper and lower Ocoee. Your camp facilities were great; the guides
gave us a whitewater rafting experience to remember for a life time! We had
such a great time several of us are talking about coming back with our
families. Thanks again." Cindy Hosch, Committee Chair
V26
"Just wanted to say that we
all had a blast! Saturday was our first rafting experience ever and it was more
fun than we could have imagined. The weather was perfect, the water was great
and we couldn't have picked a better guide. Please tell our guide that we
appreciate him getting us beginners down the river safely and for just being
good company. We all had a great time. Thanks so much!" Columbus,
MS
"Wonderful trip! Bunkhouse
stay was surprisingly comfortable. Our guide was fun and helpful. Great
experience!" Rev. Geoff Grubbs, Loganville United Methodist Church,
Loganville, GA
"Good morning! Just wanted to
drop a line and say thank you for the wonderful time my husband, sons and
son-in-law had last Sunday on the middle Ocoee. My son Adam said, 'It was the
best time I ever had!' My husband was sure none of his friends got a gift like
that for Father's Day. Their guide was Mike and they had a marvelous time.
Because it was just the four guys, Mike had a little extra fun with them and
they really enjoyed themselves. We will definitely be back." Donna
Karolick, Melbourne, FL
"This trip has been on our
wish list for years. What a ride! Refreshingly cold water, breathtaking scenery
and a senior guide who truly made the trip. Your company really demonstrates
customer satisfaction. Thanks - we can't wait for our next one. In the
meantime, our photos and memories will have to do." Esther
Bach
"What a rush! all 29 men from
River City Church had the time of our life! From the moment we arrived, we were
treated like the river was ours. The guides made sure our raft trip was worth
remembering. God bless and thanks Rolling Thunder for an awesome weekend. We'll
be back!" Scott Oost, Owensboro, KY
"I was there Saturday with
Pacolet Road Baptist Church and I just wanted to say that it was the most fun I
have had in 20 years I do believe. I will be visiting you again and again...and
