Great tour, especially for water lovers - This was a lot of fun and the views are beautiful. Jeff was a friendly and knowledgeable guide and we enjoyed the rapids which were 2’s and 3’s. The drive to/from the river was nice too. Our driver pointed out eagles’ nests and beaver dams and was a friendly lady.

Rafting on the Snake River in Jackson - It was great fun! Our guide (Bobby) was excellent. I would highly recommend going with this company (Mad River). It was very professional and yet fun was had by all!

Best time in Jackson! - Fantastic experience with Kolton on the Snake River. He was kind, engaging, interesting and encouraged us to become friends with strangers. We all got in the 60 degree water and it was wonderful! He pointed out eagles, ospreys and beavers. So much fun I’d do it again in a heartbeat!

A must do in Jackson - 8.5 mile trip with great sections of rapids. The enjoyment proportionate to how wet you got and we got drenched! Aaron our ‘captain’ was brilliant and made sure we absolutely got the most from it. He was disappointed we ‘only’ saw 5 bald eagles…

Wet, wild and wildly fun! - My husband and I did this trip 12 years ago and this year we took our adult daughters. We had so much fun paddling, running the rapids and looking for bald eagles. Our guide, Ree, was knowledgeable and a lot of fun. We had a blast!

Fun+Exciting Rafting Trip in Jackson - Had an amazing time out rafting with Mad River! The small boats were perfect if you haven’t done much rafting but still want to get the feel of good rapids. Our guide Ree was great and made sure we had a fun and safe time out on the river. Would definitely do again next time in Jackson.
