For the rafting, you would pre-arrange the trip with a driver because they drop you off at the “top” or the beginning of the drift down then drive to meet you at the end. The driver will most likely have a raft captain to recommend. If not, one can be assigned at the office. The rating cost is $60 per person. For that particular trip I paid the driver $65 because he had to wait 4 hours. So yes, it was my splurging outing, but soooo worth it. Reach Falls, I paid $40 plus lunch and drinks.

If you want to hire a driver to take you somewhere locally at night, then I wouldn’t pay more than $20 to drop off and pick up. But you won’t have to do that much because you have easy access to route taxis. Let’s say you take a route taxi to Boston, just ask that driver if he could pick you up at a certain time for about $7. I’ve never had a driver refuse to do that especially if you offer to pay in US dollars. The same with Frenchman’s Cove. And since the road to Winnifred Beach has been fixed, you can walk down now from the road and have a driver come pick you for about $10.
