rafting guide
Whitewater trip expert
A rafting guide is a person who leads groups on whitewater rafting trips, steering the raft, giving paddle commands, and ensuring safety on the river.
The job combines outdoor skills with crowd management: Our rafting guide kept us calm through the rapids.
Most work seasonally at adventure tourism outfits.
