Our guide Ash gave us a wonderful tour of Chena river by raft. He was knowledgeable and accommodating. We would definitely recommend this raft/fishing tour to anyone.

It’s a great day and don’t worry about getting wet! Informative guides and beautiful scenery . Great day
Be sure to get your fishing licenses in advance. It takes several clicks on the reservation site details to see that you are responsible for the licenses and even when you do it is not that clear. There was no indication on the confirmation email or in the conversations prior to the trip. Unfortunately we were not asked if we had our licenses until we were at the put in point on the river. At that point it was too late to get them as there was no cell service within a hours drive to get the licenses. Our party of 8 was very disappointed. This is the only reason for our low rating. We do have positive feedback as well. Our guides made the best of it for us as we floated down the river enjoying the beautiful scenery, wildlife and listening to the interesting Alaska story’s. We would go again with the guides but wish we could have fished on our fishing adventure.
Fishing was nor the best, but raft and scenery was great, guide was entertaining , duration of trip was about right
Tour guide seemed knowledgeable but wasn’t very talkative to us. Spent entire time visiting with second tour guide. Caught 7 fish total between 7 people fishing for 3-4 hours. Didn’t seem like catching fish and making memorable memories were top priority for guides and this was our first time fly fishing. I would not spend this kind of money for the half day we had.

We had a wonderful day on the river with Ash. He was very knowledgeable and did a great job sharing insight into Alaska. The fishing experience was awesome.
Trenton was an awesome guide, he knew the best fishing spots and was very knowledgeable about the area. It was my first time fishing and he taught me how to catch a fish! It was really fun and exciting. Our entire group was able to catch at least one fish. He also brought some homemade snacks which I thought was super nice. Would definitely recommend this experience if you’re coming to Fairbanks!!
Our group of 10 from Georgia, really enjoyed this excursion. We had two boats. Our guides were great. Friendly, knowledgable, Fun!! Weather held out perfectly as rain drops started falling almost as soon as we landed the boats.
Our guide was excellent; so glad he brought an extra thermal layer (fleece) in the boat for me to borrow when it got even colder than expected on our rainy day! Mosquitoes were awful, but other than that it was a super-fun fishing experience where ai caught 3x and my husband caught 2!
The beauty of the outdoors and learning from the guide about nature in Alaska overall, while sharing this time with a great friend, made this a memory of a lifetime.
It was about a 45 minute trip out of Fairbanks to a beautiful stretch of the Chena river. There were 3 vans and boats for our group that day. Greg was the guide in our boat, he was a great guy and very knowledgeable. We drift fished and stopped to wade at key points. All equipment was provided, waders, boots, and spinning and/or fly gear. We caught some Grayling and had a great time.
Floating down the river, enjoying the beautiful weather, and endless views. Great tour guide, and even caught fish!!
