One of our experienced guides will join you on your adventure to help make sure you have a safe and exciting trip!

The menu includes hearty deli and gourmet sandwiches, burgers, wings, fries and more. You can even stop by just for a scoop of ice cream! If your rafting trip is scheduled for earlier in the day, visit the Apricot Place Cafe beforehand for a biscuit, English muffin or bagel for breakfast.

5. Spend a Full Day on the River
You can spend your whole day on the Ocoee River when you come rafting with us! Our Full Day Trip features The Olympic Experience, which is an adventure you don’t want to miss.
