If you are contemplating this adventure, it is a must do! One of the highlights of our trip. While our guide Archie was absolutely fantastic, all of the guides were extremely knowledgeable and definitely made me feel safe. Neil was very informative prior to departing for the rapids. They provide plenty of education prior to going through the rapids of what to expect. I was very nervous prior to attending this adventure and so happy I decided to go through with it. 10/10 recommend! Wear double socks, but otherwise stayed warm and dry the entire time.

5 stars!

These people were great and knew exactly what they were doing. I can’t wait to do it again! I did things I didn’t know I could do!

Totally awesome experience in all 3 Canyons

Mark_A, Jul 2024
My son and I had a spectacular experience. The guides were very adamant about explaining safety precautions and procedures. We loved our guide Popcorn. The further into the trip the more confident we were. We were going to stop before the third canyon but we went on. And conquered all 3 canyons without any problems.

Awesome Trip!

Great guides who were very safety conscious and professional. Make sure you wear layers appropriately. Running all three canyons is a must!

Flipped

The raft flipped and the guide blamed us. Still fun but a bit scary. Beautiful river, mountains and scenery.

Best guided rafting in Alaska for people looking for a bit of an adrenaline rush! We all fell in at the suction hole but the team had everything under control in seconds. Great time!

Amazing experience

We had the best day white water rafting with this company. We had James and Archie as our guides and we would ask for them both again, they were great! I’ve gone rafting twice in other locations in Alaska and my Hope experience was by far the best.
