Efficient check-in and bus to boat launch. Great trip on the river. The rapids were exciting but not too scary. The small kids in our boat enjoyed it, as did our teens. We saw a bald eagle. If want to get soaked, sit in the front! I was very happy with the photos. I went big and bought them all. Truly great shots!

What a wonderfully wholesome way to spend a few hours with my family. Simon was a fantastic guide, and we had just the best time going down the Snake River. The whole crew was professional and gave some great instructions ahead of time. Could not say enough good things about them!

Had RJ as a guide and he was so fun! Very knowledgeable and funny! Told us all about the river and surrounding area. Pointed out local birds and we saw so many! We hit all the rapids just right to get soaked!! Other than being a little chilly (we didn’t get wet suits) it was an awesome experience!!

We had a blast

carla_B, Aug 2026
We had a blast! We got wet and didn’t mind at all! We didn’t rent the bib and we were fine. We were surprised to be charged more for the Forrest pass.

Poor experience and poor customer service

Shannon_A, Aug 2026
I would not recommend this experience. I went about a month ago with my girlfriend and we were seated with a family of about 10 people including children. During the rafting trip, kids were splashing water at us. If you’re looking for more of a rafting experience I wouldn’t choose this business. In addition, we were held up floating for about 30 minutes waiting in the water because our instructor was monitoring a day program. Our trip was held up because a child did not want to get on the raft for a separate program they run which should not interfere with our experience. We then were 30-45 min late to getting back which matters when you have limited days in Jackson hole. Rather than write a poor review, I contacted the company and they took no accountability for what had transpired. I’ve been going back and forth with them for weeks and I have received no follow up. They told me to contact Viator for a refund and when I did Viator said the business declined the refund. I am still waiting for a response. Extremely upset with this business and their lack of accountability for poor service.

This was a fantastic time! The guides were terrific and scenery stunning. We can’t wait to go back and do it again!

Loved it!

Hannah_L, Aug 2026
Very knowledgeable and friendly guides. Had a blast even with a group of strangers. Felt very safe and would 100% do it all over again! Only strife was with Viator not communicating with the rafting company when changing times so we had to be fit on to another raft after waiting a little bit.

What a perfect family...

Melissa_K, Aug 2026
What a perfect family friendly ride ! It was an awesome combination of calm and exciting. We had three teenage kids with us and everyone had a great time. Our tour guide Adam was amazing ! Highly recommend.

White water raft with this crew or be wrong.

Angela_S, Aug 2026
We would do this again and again. The entire experience was amazing. Everyone at the shop where we meet to begin and end were so kind and helpful. The bus river was funny and told us fun facts about areas we drove through while safely getting us from place to place and our tour guide Jackson was the GOAT. We left this event ready to book another 5 rafting rides.

So much fun!!

This was an amazing experience! We were nervous having never done this before and by the end, we were all in the water loving it. Our guide Will was great and made us all feel comfortable. Highly recommend!

Do Not Book with Viator

Alison_D, Jun 2026
Viator is a scam. They pose as the actual rafting company and charge above what the actual rafting company charges. We had a family of 5- 2 adults and 3 children and Viator only gave me the option to book 5 adults. When I called to have my price adjusted to the children’s price, the Viator staff was rude and dismissive. They even went so far as to blame the rafting company. I asked for a manager to call me and I never received a phone call. I would not book with Viator. Book through the actual rafting company itself.

Great Experience!

Patricia_H, Jun 2026
We had an excellent experience with our raft guide Kaylee. She kept the experience fun, safe, and highly enjoyable for our children. Everyone was seamless and easy… highly recommend!

Highlight of the trip!

Callie_P, Jun 2026
10/10 experience. We did this for Fathers Day and loved our time on the river. Julianna was the best guide. She made our time so much fun.

Wonderful time for all!
