Thank you Chris and team! - Chris was an awesome guide! Just a really great dude. I was on the raft with another family and we chatted in between taking on the rapids. Very gentle trip. If you want something more intense I’d go for the full day or the guides said the water is higher right after winter! They had all the gear need to keep me warm in 60ish degree weather!

Amazing Family Experience - I can’t recommend this company enough! We did the half-day rafting trip, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. The customer service was outstanding—even before our trip, they were quick to answer all of our questions and made the entire booking process easy.
Chris was an amazing tour guide! He was knowledgeable, informative, and made sure everyone felt comfortable while still keeping the trip fun and exciting. You could tell he genuinely enjoys what he does, and it made the experience even better.
The entire crew was fantastic—friendly, helpful, and professional. This was easily one of the highlights of our trip. If you’re looking for an adventure in the area, this is the company to book with.
10/10 experience. Highly recommend!

Best rafting company! - Wonderful experience for the price! My family had so much fun and our guides were absolutely amazing! Lots of jokes on the bus ride to and from the drop point, and during our adventure our raft guide, Joe, was very knowledgeable about all the wildlife and vegetation and shared his knowledge with us during the trip. 10/10 recommend!!

Best Rafters Ever! - My family was on a vacation to Yellowstone and we decided to go white water rafting. Our guide on our raft was Joe. What a guy! He knew almost everything about that river, how and when it flooded, and he was the best bird spotter Montana has ever seen! Even though the water and temperature outside was cold, these guides made the experience better! The jokes were the best part of the bus ride back. These guys are the best white water rafters and rafting company the United States has ever seen!

Core family experience! - Our entire family had an amazing time from start to finish!! All staff were the perfect mix of professional, while also keeping the vibe fun! Check in facility was clean, all gear provided was in good condition and they offered all sizes, and thorough safety checks of life jackets and gear was done prior to departing. The rafting itself was very family friendly and we felt very safe having our young kids on board. We would recommend this trip/company to everyone interested in a rafting experience!!

First Family Rafting...won't be our last. - What a fantastic experience!
The information on the website was clear and easy to understand. The emails, reminders, calendar invite, and directions were all very helpful and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I also appreciated that the details about what was provided were clearly highlighted and easy to find.
Our rafting guide was fun, knowledgeable, and a great teacher. We learned about the rafting community, the river, and the surrounding ecosystem while having an absolute blast on the water. The entire staff was friendly, helpful, and great to work with from start to finish.
The only complaint from my kids was that the trip ended too soon—they wished we had signed up for the full-day adventure instead of the two-hour rafting experience! I guess that means we'll have to come back.
Thank you for an unforgettable family adventure. We hope to see you again soon. Happy rafting!
