Booking the trip was easy, the place was very organized, our guides were almost done with the preparations when we came. They even gave us water shoes so we do not get our boots wet. The day was beautiful, the water was just the right temperature. Our guides, Mike and Tom, were wonderful. Very knowledgeable and experienced, made our trip a joy. The kids were having so much fun, they got to go in the water next to the raft, they got to "ride the bull"... by the end of the day they could not wait to come back and do more. Definitely considering coming back and highly recommend to everyone!

We did a four day camp trip with 5 dads and our 5 twelve-year-old sons. Epic. Can't say enough good things. Hard to really capture the experience in words but we were so impressed with this company and our guides. Professional. Experienced. Kind. Engaged. Service minded. We had a special time and created memories that will last a lifetime. Especially grateful to our guides Becca, Hayden and JP. The goods.

I felt like this whole experience went badly. First our tour guide barely spoke to us and we were the ones having to ask him questions. He didn’t communicate the entire day what was happening and we didn’t get food for over 5 hours. We also finished over an hour later than scheduled. Way overpriced for the quality of guide and experience we got.

Great day on the river with Disney (Jasmin) and Tia. Very professional and thorough. The river was a blast and the Class 4 rapids were amazing. I would highly recommend!

Truett was a great guide! He was fun, skilled, and easy to talk to. We were on a small raft with class 1, 2, and 3 rapids. It was super fun and easy. Exciting through the rapids!

This was an excellent Experience, they did a great job. Sara, our guide was exceptionally skilled and knowledgeable about the river, wildlife and landscape. She was graceful and fun even when I wasn’t feeling well. Each if the guides brought a special kind of excitement with them about the trip, and it was wonderful to spend the day with such a great group of guides. Lunch was perfect and my family will definitely come back to do another trip with Orange torpedo. Thank you for a great birthday experience. Jackie Smith Eugene, Oregon

My wife and I had a blast being guided down the Rogue River and its initial set of Rapids like Hellgate and Widowmaker. Our guide was very helpful and made sure we made the most of it. We stayed overnight and got to enjoy nature, the stars, comfortable arrangements, and a well needed meal! Cant wait to return to tackle the lower Rogue.

I had a blast. The guides were knowledgeable, friendly, good sense of humor, showed interest in getting to know their groups. I went with two other women, but now I’m anxious to get back on the river with my kids!

This is the very first time we went rafting. It was the best trip ever! The guides Derek and Micah were so awesome and skilled. The kids loved Micah as their tour guide, and Derek kept the adults company. Everyone had a blast river rafting. Both guides were so organized, they came prepared with food and water. They even remembered to bring hand sanitizer for lunch.We didn't have to worry about bringing enough water or food. They also checked our temperature and helped us with the gear. Overall, if we ever get a chance to come there again, we will definitely choose Orange Torpedo Trips.

It was our second time with Orange Torpedoes, and we took a Full-day Hellgate Cyn tour both times. We all had a tremendous experience, including our three children who were 11, 13, and 15 on our last trip. We had Mike Slagle as our guide for the full-day trip, and he was terrific not just as a leader of the whole group of rafts, but as a knowledgeable expert on local history and wildlife. We loved all of his stories, especially the one about Indian Mary Park! The full day on the water flies by so quickly! We had our fun time at the rapids as well as a chance to swim in the water where it was safe. The team provided lunch and drinks with all the necessary safety and social distancing precautions. Apart from that, we also took the Nuggett Falls half-day trip with Nick as our guide and it was awesome! It's more exciting as there're 4-category rapids on this trip (compared to only 3-category on Hellgate) and it was definitely marked as the coolest one by the kids! Elena and Igor
