Eagen was our guide. Tremendous experience and very knowledgeable. My wife really enjoyed his kind help.
We are from Rochester NY. We left 7-24 and return 10-17.
Thank you Eagan!
It was a very enjoyable trip. The rapids were rated 2&3. There was not as much drop in the rapids as expected. Good way to see the river, but not a difficult trip. People in the front definitely get wet, not as bad in the back of the raft. Nice family trip.
This is a must do while in Jackson. We had the absolute best time! Perfect for newbies…the rapids don’t get too crazy. Our guide, Delaney, was wonderful!
We had a great wet experience and our guide (Egan I think) was wonderful! We would recommend for sure.
Rain or shine, the rafting down the snake river was absolutely beautiful!! The guide was also wonderful!
Incredible experience. Amazing guide :) We spent the day in the river, and it was a lot of fun. Even go to have a little swim.
Fantastic fun, eegan our guide was knowledgeable and made this trip absolutely memorable for our family. Rapids were a perfect challenge for us
This was an amazing experience. We had so much fun. Ben was awesome and made the trip that much better. Highly recommend.
Fun activity for the whole family to enjoy. Staff was knowledgeable and friendly. Would definitely recommend
Callie was the best! Such a great time and so glad we could book even with the season winding down. Would definitely recommend.
We had a lot of fun. Glad we were able to go in a smaller boat - made it more personal. They were on time, fun but professional - seem like a great group of people
Had a blast rafting with this company! They ran smoothly from the bus ride to the end. Egan was the best guide!!
Nick was our guide down the river. He was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about his job. He kept us all engaged. I highly recommend a wetsuit especially if you are like us coming from Florida in September. Would totally do this tour again!
Our guide Eagan was great!! So fun and full of energy. He was very knowledgeable about the snake river.
Bryce was an outstanding guide who made our whitewater rafting trip both fun and exciting. The small boat tour offered a perfect, hands-on, and personal experience.

So glad you had a great time with Tucker out on the water - DHWW Team
Trip was well run, our guide Charolette did an excellent job. The bus driver getting us to the rafting start point was funny and shared a lot of great history. The girls in the shop could have been more helpful. Also disappointed they didn’t have a variety of T-shirt sizes.

Charlotte is such a gem! We're so glad you had a great time on the river. Thank you for your feedback -DHWW Team

This is a fun and exciting activity rafting trip along the beautiful Snake River. We even saw an eagle and osprey overhead battle it out for a fish. Very exciting. Ben was an exceptional guide who was knowledgeable and fun. Dorothy drove the bus to and fro with lots of local information along the way.
Had a ball with our teens. Beautiful river friendly guide. We would do it again and definitely recommend!!
Delaney was our guide and she was wonderful!! We had a blast and would definitely do it again!! Recommend the wetsuit especially in September.
We had a great whitewater rafting excursion with Dave Hansen Whitewater. It was our second whitewater rafting experience and the first in Class II and III rapids. It was a blast and we felt safe! Our guide Ben was great! He was knowledgeable (as were all staff members we met), gave clear instructions and was a lot of fun! Rafts, life jackets and rafts were in good condition. A great time for all ages just need to be mobile. We would absolutely go with this Dave Hansen Whitewater again and highly recommend.
If you are on the fence just do it! I am a first timer and was really questioning my decision then once I got there I realized everyone else was scared too. After meeting the staff and Delaney our team leader I felt so comfortable and I knew just to trust her and right away I started enjoying my experience. We saw bald eagles and the scenery was just amazing! I am so glad I decided to do it and I will forever cherish my experience.
Great experience for me 71 and grandkids 20 & 23. Jake ( Rooster) was a great guide. Kids still talking about being so happy we did this together. Life is short go whitewater rafting fun for all ages.
The rafts were a lot of fun. You catch some good waves and the scenery is beautiful. The guide was great and we had a lot of fun. The water this time of year was cool, but it was not freezing cold. Recommend!
Super fun and safe for the family. Would recommend renting a wet suit with the company. Snake river can be cold.
Great guide Sam Williamson ! Great overall service from all employees! Awesome views, saw 3 bald eagles on the 4th, America!!
Brian was our guide and did a wonderful job preparing us for the big water. The Snake river had lots of class three sections that were a lot of fun to run. I would definitely recommend this company and Brian in particular for a great white water experience.
