Amazing! Got to see beautiful views and the fall leaves are gorgeous right now. Love how comfortable the boating experience is with the seats and it’s great that they provide binoculars! So glad I chose this company while my mom is in town!

Overview

If you think floating down the Snake is only for the outdoorsy, think again. With this tour, you’ll ride a raft with high-back seats, making this ultra-scenic journey great for young and old. A stable ride across a gentle current lets you relax in the open air, catching some of Jackson Hole’s best views—and possibly even eagles, elk, moose, bears, and more.
  • Float on the Snake River, with comfortable seats a priority
  • Get away from the crowds and deep into the backcountry, where wildlife congregate
  • Great for most ages—no rafting experience required
  • Limited to 12 travelers, you'll get a fun, small-group experience

Kind, professional, safety-minded staff. The rafts with seating were comfortable. Our guide JoJo kept us entertained with both stories and facts and promoted easy conversation among everyone in our boat. The scenery is breathtaking. Would definitely go again.

Wonderful experience for 2 seniors!

Eugena_H, Sep 2025
This was a beautiful trip down the Snake River, late September. I felt very safe and comfortable, with the soft seat back chairs and the waterproof blankets we were given! Our guide, Alex, gave us some info of the area on our way down & saw several Bald Eagles, amazing foliage colors, large fish swimming just under the raft! The other people that checked us, fitted our life jackets, drove the vans to take us to the water and pick us up, were also helpful and friendly. Certainly I would encourage you to think about taking this float trip!

Great Float Trip

Great float trip with knowledgeable guide. The seats on the raft were very comfortable and made the float trip more enjoyable.

Excellent!

Sheryl_O, Sep 2025
This trip was one of our favorite things we did on this trip. The comminication by staff before our trip was great. I received emails and text messages with information and directions. My questions were responded to right away. Our guide was perfect. He was informative about what we were seeing and always had a watchful eye to point out things we may have missed. The scenery was absolutely beautiful. I can't give enough compliments.

An awesome experience!

It is a great ride on the Snake River. The crew is very helpful in helping you get on and off the boat. We would do it again.

Riding the river

Sue_M, Sep 2025
The raft ride was great. our guide Will was very knowledgeable about the area. The ride along the river was just long enough to make it enjoyable. Many beautiful plants and eagles pointed out along the way. We were lucky to see 20 bald eagles and two golden eagles. Never saw a golden eagle before did not even know they existed.

Great adventure- Must do

Lisa_P, Sep 2025

Steve_B, Sep 2025
The float was nice but not the area I believed it would be. There were too many houses, fences, people hiking, a horse trailer. When I booked this float trip I believed it would be through wild country and nearer the Teton range. I enjoyed the trip but I wouldn’t do it again or suggest it to a friend.

We loved the float! Our guide was very engaging and enthusiastic. Nick, I think, was his name. I asked what our chances were of seeing moose, and he said rare, but one showed up for me! I was so excited! We saw probably a dozen eagles. It was my husband’s favorite activity on our 12 day trip.

Bring another pair of shoes to change into if you don’t want to walk around the rest of the day in wet shoes. We did the trip in September and was thankful we had the extra shoes. It was also a little chilly on the water, but a wonderful, beautiful trip!

Pretty scenery but way too long!

Jessica_C, Sep 2025
It was fine but a little boring. Float ride was too long to not see any wildlife other than eagles. Chairs somewhat comfortable but very firm to sit for 2.5 hours. Guide should have played music or trivia or something to liven things up and pass the time. We would have preferred an hour float at most.

Floating the Tetons

Very informative, great views, comfortable seating and the best guide…Matt C! He was entertaining and very knowledgeable about the area!

Ladies Out West

Mary_T, Sep 2025
The crew were magnificent at helping our group of 5 "older" ladies get in and out of the boat. Seat backs were so comfortable. The float was the most relaxing thing and our guide was entertaining.

Wonderful experience. Don’t miss out.

Great views and relaxing ride

Easy and relaxing excursion. Our travel guide pointed out wildlife we saw. Andrew was very knowledgeable about EVERYTHING anyone asked. He gave us interesting and some fun stories.

A leisurely glide down the river

Alison_B, Sep 2025
A great chance to get up close with the Snake River, but in a very comfortable and relaxing way down the river. Having actual seats to sit on is so much better! Our guide JoJo told lots of interesting stories on the way, and although we didn’t see a whole lot of wildlife other than bald eagles it was still well worth doing b

Be on time, wonderful...
