I love Big Frogs Expeditions. I've gone every year, usually twice a year. Last year I went twice bringing a different set of friends each time. They all want to go again this year, so it looks like I'll be going 4 times this year, minimum. If that doesn't say how great these people are, I don't know what else to say. Well except for "Go!"
Very friendly and professional. We had our two teenaged grandchildren, and we are young "senior citizens". We requested an experienced guide and we were paired up with Mark, who has been on the river for 22 years. He gave us instructions for anything that might happen. The staff at the outpost also vent over all equipment and safety measures. It was a great experience. I would add that you have to be in fairly good physical condition, and be aware that you might end up in the river.
I really enjoyed this rafting trip. Our guide was very funny, knew a lot of cool facts about the river, and kept encouraging us the whole trip. The facilities were clean and had plenty of changing rooms. I will definitely book with them again!
We had Rob as our guide. Not only did he do some fun things with the raft like surfing, but he also gave great history lessons as we floated down the river. Learned a lot about the area and had a blast!
We've gone on rafting trips with Big Frog four times now. Each time, we've seen other rafting companies in the river with reckless or inexperienced guides who manage to run into big rocks, flip their boats and put their customers in danger. Big Frog never takes unsafe chances for a laugh or a thrill. They are experienced guides who want to make sure you have a great time, but also be safe while doing so. I wouldn't want to raft with another company!
For some of our group this was their first trip, but for me this was my fourth trip with Big Frog, and we loved it! Kat was our guide and she had us laughing the whole way down the river. I would highly recommend rafting with Big Frog!!!
We had an awsome time. Our guide Joey and Rob the guide of the other raft made our adventure very special. We will go back and do it again.
The staff is excellent! The food is great! The trip is amazing! Recommend this rafting company 100%!!!
My 2 best friends and I took part in the full river trip. We initially had 5 going, but 2 guys couldn't get away. Big Frog worked with us, and made it painless to just adjust prices for 3. The day of the trip was great from star to finish. From the painless brief on safety, to the staff basically unloading and loading rafts for us. Less was our guide, and he was an absolute blast; and one smart dude. We learned about the river, the names of the rapids, history of the area and everything in between. The lunch the fed us was simple and a good spread, sandwhiches, chips, drinks, etc... and they did everything, all we had to do was pick. Big Frog is fantastic, and we also seemed to be having more fun than the other companies. I'm already planning on going back again!
If you are looking for an amazing adventure along the Ocoee River, then look no further. Great campground and facilities, mixed with a friendly staff and guides. Had the time of my life. Highly recommend!!!
