We planned for a long time this trip to the Ocoee River. We looked at diffirent providers bit we do not regret choosing NOC for our trip. They provide everithing to have a great experience. Safety tips along the course and before embarking the journey. Our guide Kyle is an expert and make us have a fun experience. He is a good leader who join us as team to work safe while on the water and provide help to others. I would recommend anyone to try the river wiht NOC.

Jordan was our guide and was awesome. He knows his stuff and made the trip fun and exciting. Some of our group will be back up next month and are requesting him. The trip itself is awesome a lot of whitewater and plenty of opportunities. The NOC provides good equipment and support. Highly recommended.

Amazing trip! I wanted a company that would be fun, but overall safe because I was going with my 13 year old. We did the Ocoee full trip on Sunday. It was amazing. They even have a kayaker to go with the trip to catch "swimmers" that may have fallen out of the boat. That is being safe! A lot of the other companies that I saw did not have this extra safety measure. My guide - Dakota even let us surf on one of the waves with the raft. We had a great lunch also. Best trip ever!!

My adult sons and I went with Lucus down the Ocoee on the all day trip. I can not speak more highly of this trip or of our guide! We had an absolute blast, and Lucus made us laugh and kept us safe. I would do this trip again in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommend to anyone thinking about a whitewater adventure. Thanks to NOC and Lucus for a fantastic run down the Ocoee!

My fiancé and I just did the upper and lower Ocoee trip and had a blast. Neither of us have ever experienced white water rafting before and couldn’t have been more pleased with NOC from start to finish. All the guides were personable, easy going, fun, and most importantly knew what they were doing. As another person posted, we saw plenty of other rafting companies on the river and none of them seemed to be having as much fun as the NOC rafts. We didn’t get to talk to all the guides on a personal level as they were in separate rafts, but we can say that our raft guide Dakota was awesome. He did everything he could to entertain us and make the trip an unforgettable experience while at the same time making sure we all made it down the river safely. Another guide we were able to talk to on a personal level before the trip, during lunch, and after the trip was Ben. He too made the whole experience unforgettable. We are already talking about doing another trip with our daughter & her grandfather & will definitely be requesting Dakota. We won’t raft with another company as long as NOC is on the river. They go above and beyond to make the whole experience fun, exciting, and safe.

We did the full day combo trip it was great. We passed several other rafts on the river from other companies and noticed that the NOC rafters were full of smiles and having fun. The other companies groups of rafters didnt look to be having nearly as much fun as NOC groups. Our guide Dakota was outstanding. We talked pretty much the whole trip, whether it was learning about the river or getting to know him and the group as a whole. We made it through all the rapids without anyone falling out. We did some surfing and went down a rapid backwards just to make it more intense. Awesome first time rafting experience! Highly recommend this company!
