Was a great day on the water. Abigail from Montana Rafting was our guide and she was super fun and informative! We got a little history on the float part of the trip and then excitement in the rapids in the afternoon! Fun family experience! Highly recommend!!

Abigail was our guide, and she did a great job! We had 6 people in our raft, 4 rafts in our group. Maddie, Heidi and Zach were the guides and they worked really well together. We were given instructions on how to paddle and when to paddle. The scenery was beautiful (we saw some wildlife and a bald eagle) and the river was so amazing with the clear water and colorful rocks on the bottom. The water was cold, but the wetsuits kept us comfortable and mostly dry. We appreciated that the trip was exciting as we navigated the various sections of rapids, but never felt like we were in mortal peril. The lunch was very good with enough quality and quantity and attention to several dietary restrictions that there were no complaints from anyone. They have the set-up perfected, including a hand-washing station and several options for pitstops. I would strongly recommend this trip for anyone. We had small children and grandmas and everyone had a great time! Thanks again for a wonderful trip and great memories!
It’s a must do. Great...
