A relaxing half day on the river - So much fun and so relaxing, just floating down the river. Our guide Armond was a lot of fun and quite knowledgeable. We saw many ospreys, a couple of blue herons, and a bald eagle. I would do it again!

Perfect combo of fun and relaxation! - Loved our scenic float on the Salmon River, expertly guided by Luke. After a safety discussion, our raft traveled down a few exciting rapids past interesting historic sites and absolutely amazing scenery. Our professional and knowledgeable guide entertained us with anecdotes about all the history of the area, and pointed out some gorgeous wildlife. Near the end of our relaxing trip, we pulled up to shore for a delicious lunch and drinks. There were opportunities for swimming as we pulled into the end of our trip, but it was a bit chilly for us! Amazing guide (thanks, Luke!) and a memorable day of adventure!

Scenic float on the Salmon River - This is a gentle stretch of the river, so we just sat back and relaxed as we glided along and through the smaller class 1 and 2 rapids. Our guide was very informative about the area and the nature along the river. The scenery is magnificent with water and mountains all along the way. We saw many osprey, a few deer, merganser ducks, blue herons, a golden eagle and a bald eagle. We stopped at a sand bar and got out and swam in the water. Very relaxing and 3 hours of fun.

Memorable and Fantastic - My husband and I tremendously enjoyed our rafting trip down the Salmon. Our guide had a lot of history about the area and river. The lunch was good with variety for all types of people with restrictions.
