The boat ride on the river was great. But the real star of the show was our captain, Rusty! He was very informative and showed us a really good time.
What a great boat ride! So enjoyable and informative. We enjoyed seeing lots of gorgeous water birds in motion. And a special treat was seeing several bald eagles. Our guide was very friendly and knowledgeable. It was so cool seeing the dam up close.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the ride and especially that you got to spot the beautiful water fowl and several bald eagles what an incredible treat. We’ll be sure to pass along your kind words to Captain Emily she loves making each trip fun and informative.
