This was a great experience for beginners...the water was low and the rapids weren't as bad as I thought they would be. We had an excellent guide...and the lunch along the river was awesome.. highly recommended
The all day white water wasn’t all day white water. It was a scenic float the majority of the time with minor rapids at the end. The guides were excellent and fun. The lunch was amazing. It just got a bit long just floating for 80% of the time
Very beautiful. Our guides Will and Sam S. were so funny, fun and nice. They cooked our lunch which was a ton of food. Everyone on our raft was extremely nice. Worth the experience.
The best! Really fun, exiting and thrilling but felt safe the whole time. Josh was really capable, fun and has tons of information. Lunch was really good!
It was a good trip. I wish they'd told me more about what I could and couldn't bring, otherwise I would have brought sunblock.
Great float and rapid trip. Our river guide Frank aka Will is very experienced and made this adventure fun and safe. Bbque lunch was delicious!!!
So much fun! As a beginner I wasn’t sure what to expect but it was just enough rapids along with beautiful scenery. Kane was a great guide!
Matt was a fantastic guy! We had an easy float, a great lunch and then some really nice rapids. Lots of laughs and good conversation in between rapids. There is a lot to learn while enjoying the river! Thank you!
This was an incredible experience! Matty B was our guide and we had the best time!! Would absolutely recommend!
Amazing trip, from the light float to lunch (which is over a literal campfire - best included lunch I’ve ever had during an outdoor activity tour) to the rapids. Great for beginners as well, since the guides are pretty thorough with their instruction. Plus you’ll get a heck of an arm workout and of course a view you’ll never forget. My guide Tampa was wonderful. Highly recommend!
Over all the experience was ok, the staff were friendly and kind but my partner and I felt like we wasted a day of our trip the first half of the trip is just a river float with NO white rapids at all all of them are the second half of the day and even those were mostly class 2 very child friendly but if you are someone looking for adventure or a trill seeker I would skip this.
Ava our guide was fantastic - knowledgeable, energetic and personable. We are from NC and the experience here was superior. THANK YOU.

We saw a black bear swimming across the river! Beautiful day to raft Tampa our tour guide was very enthusiastic and was great at maneuvering the raft.
Response from Host, Sep 2023
That is such a unique and special experience to see a bear on your rafting trip! We are so glad you chose to share your time with us. We hope to see you out on the river again soon.
Full day whitewater trip was so enjoyable and so amazing to take in God’s creation throughout Glacier Park. While most of the rapids weren’t too challenging in late August due to water flow, that could’ve been also having an excellent General Aaron in charge of our troops! He was what I would consider the best style of guide, with ease of communication and knowledge, and not cheesy or scripted. The half way meal was great getting our proteins cooked on a grill not cold sandwiches! Highly recommend the Glacier Raft Co and Aaron as your guide!
Response from Host, Aug 2023
Aaron is a fantastic guide! We are thrilled this was your experience with us. We hope that you will join us for another adventure in the future. Maybe we can take you on higher water!
Great guide! He kept us safe.
Keep up the good work.
Highly recommend this rafting
excursion—you will get a great workout.

Thanks for joining us on the Full Day Raft Trip!
We were looking for something we could do outside of Glacier Nat’l Park that also gave us the views and adventure. This was amazing and fun! Ron (hi Ron’s mom!!) was a great guide- funny, personable, loves what she does and wants to know about the people on her raft.
The lunch was super tasty - I had the steak and my niece had the chicken. Lots of little rapids to work up to the big ones. Water level is low right now so it was perfect for my niece to try out rafting - she loved it!!
Highly recommend doing this if you are looking to see some beautiful mountains and get a lil adventure without waiting in line to get into the park!
We enjoyed this rafting experience, especially the second half of the day where we got to the rapids.
James made it an unforgettable experience for my 15yo son and me…loved it!! Water and scenery is gorgeous on the west side of the park
The first part was mostly relaxing and getting to know the people on the boat.
Lunch was great, steak on the river!
The rapids were a blast!
Everything was just right.
Our river guide, AP, was amazing. He was very knowledgeable about the surrounding area and was super funny! I would highly recommend the full day trip 100%. We stopped for lunch 1/2 way though which was absolutely delicious. Even the picky kids enjoyed the food! All of the guides were fun and personable!
Response from Host, Jul 2022
We're glad to hear you enjoyed your trip with AP!
Our guide was absolutely amazing and we rode some incredible rapids with very little effort of us paddling. The lunch was five star and a welcome break to stretch and refresh. This is the second trip for me and first for my friends and everyone had a blast. We all would do this again!
Thank you,
The Minnesota Crew

We are so happy you returned to raft with us! Hopefully we can see you and your friends again soon.
We were on the first excursion of the season and oh my goodness! The water was running fast and furious. Brock was our guide and he was the best. He was confident, experienced, skilled and fun.
He let us know and reminded us what we needed to do to stay safe. Lunch was superb. It was an amazing ride, an experience that these two not especially fit oldsters (69&70) will ever forget.
Response from Host, Jun 2022
We are so happy to hear you enjoyed your trip with Brock! Hopefully you can return again.
My husband and I had such a good time on our full day rafting trip! Our guide, Vance, was great! He gave us a recommendation about where to eat afterwards and almost our whole raft group went there for dinner. Our group talked and we all got to know each other. It was an amazing day to be out on the river. Everyone on our boat loved the lunch and we had a good time jumping in the water to cool off. I would definitely recommend this trip for people with kids as well as adults. It was one of my favorite memories from our trip to Glacier.

Absolutely beautiful river. You are unlikely to find better scenery. Great lunch. Great guides. Be prepared for weather. We started out cold until the afternoon sun came out.
