"Exhilarating"

“We did white-water rafting with a guide named Peter. He was professional and friendly and gorgeous. We were a family of mostly novices and he guided us down in his canoe whilst we rafted behind him. It was a brilliant experience with teenage children and we all had an excellent time.”

"Our guide was A+"

“Very impressed with this company… Our guide Joey was phenomenal. He was a friendly and fun person to spend the day with (we did an all-day class 5 route), but even more important he really knew what he was doing, having guided for many years and even in other countries…Looking back I’m really thankful we had such a knowledgeable and experienced guide.”

-Philip H on TripAdvisor

"Great Rafting Company in Kernville"

“We recently did the Lickety Blaster trip down the Kern River with Sierra South Mountain Sports…The river was flowing well (over 2000 cubic feet per second) and we loved our experience…I highly recommend nature’s roller coaster ride!”
