Our family had a wonderful time on our half day whitewater adventure. The scenery was beautiful and we saw a bald eagle during the trip. The rapids were exciting for both my 14 and 9 year old sons. The best part of our day was our guide Dom. He kept the ride interesting with his knowledge of the area and funny stories of past rafting experiences. Dom engaged with every person on the boat and made sure every one was comfortable and safe. My son fell out of the raft at one point and Dom had him back in the boat before I realized he had gone over! Overall, a great day and I would highly recommend Glacier Raft to anyone looking for a fun experience on the water.See more..
5.0Montana Whitewater(2.576 reviews) - Fun full day Saturday: 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM River Rafting & Tubing • Zipline & Aerial Adventure Parks • Nature & Wildlife Tours • Horseback Riding Tours • Kayaking & Canoeing
Family of 5 adult siblings, spouses & significant other. “Yellowstone” vacation! We did zip & dip pkg. & were with Anna & Cassidy in the 10:00 zip line. Then hung out & had a sandwich waityfoe the raft trip with Jaysie(4 of us) & Clara(5). The water level was low so it was very rocky making it even more exciting! All of our guides made it a super fun experience. They had 3 bus loads going at 1:00 & did a pretty good job of getting us all on a raft in a timely manner. The trip was lots of fun & highly recommended!See more..
5.0Glacier Guides and Montana Raft(2.438 reviews) - Fun, safe and very memorable! Saturday: 7:30 AM - 5:00 PM River Rafting & Tubing • Bike Tours • Fishing Charters & Tours • Gear Rentals • Hiking & Camping Tours
Montana is one of the smaller rafting companies and it shows in their personalized service. We had Greyson as our guide for both a half day scenic and half day whitewater and he was outstanding. He connected with both the kids and the adults, to the point we requested him for our second outing. The gear is good and the process is efficient. The whitewater is the better of the tours for our family but both were fun. I recommend springing for the private tour if you have 6 or more people. For 8 people it’s a no brained to do the private tour.See more..
5.0Geyser Whitewater Expeditions(1.843 reviews) - Fun and well run! Saturday: 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM River Rafting & Tubing
Great experience. I was a 1st-timer and they were very clear with verbal instructions about the process, from signing in/paying to getting our gear and on the bus to get to the launch site. Our "on-ramper" had a great sense of humor, but was also very organized with his delivery...took most of the anxiety out of the process, making it a much more enjoyable experience. Our guide was very experienced and also very clear with his instructions, once we boarded the raft. I would highly recommend Geyser...my only wish would be that the Gallatin River was running a bit faster, but of course, they have no control over that. Otherwise, this is your place!See more..
5.0Wild West Rafting(1.533 reviews) - Excellent experience! Saturday: 8:00 AM - 9:30 PM River Rafting & Tubing • Horseback Riding Tours
My wife and I booked a half day whitewater rafting trip as part of our weekend anniversary trip to Yellowstone National Park. Absolutely zero complains from us! The guys and gals of Wild West Rafting know exactly how to show you an awesome time on the river. Professional and experienced guides is what you pay for, but they also throw in some jokes and stories throughout the day to keep you entertained lol. Big shout out to our guide, Andrew, for making this part of our trip so memorable for my wife and I; you were awesome my man! Another shoutout to the photographer working there, I never caught your name, but our pictures turned out great, so thank you for that! If you're planing a trip to Yellowstone and whitewater rafting is on the agenda, I highly recommend Wild West Rafting, you won't regret booking with them. See more..
5.0Flying Pig Adventure Company(1.452 reviews) - Great adventure in Montana Saturday: 7:30 AM - 7:00 PM River Rafting & Tubing • Fishing Charters & Tours • Horseback Riding Tours
My husband and I booked the one hour horseback ride followed by an 8 mile river raft tour down the Yellowstone river. Both were Fantastic! The horseback ride offered gorgeous views and very easy well trained horses. We had Leen for the rafting guide, she was very fun and knowledgeable about the area, again stunning views of this gorgeous area, I would highly recommend both adventures.See more..
5.0Montana Whitewater(1.262 reviews) - Rafting A Blast! Saturday: 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM River Rafting & Tubing • Zipline & Aerial Adventure Parks
Our family of 10 enjoyed an adventure of a lifetime on a raft guided by Sophie on the Yellowstone River in Gardiner. We laughed, sang songs, rode the “bull” we later renamed as the hood ornament, and deepened our family bonding. The price was reasonable and the level of rapids was perfect for beginners as well as those more adventurous. See more..
5.0Wild River Adventures - Day Tours(1.250 reviews) - A great experience Saturday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM River Rafting & Tubing • Boat Tours • Fishing Charters & Tours • Kayaking & Canoeing • Day Trips
Our guide was Ethan. Despite our large family of six, most of whom are over 6 feet tall, he handled the boat with confidence and great knowledge! He was patient, and shared knowledge of around every bend. We even had one child it was slightly anxious about white water rafting, and she had no fear whatsoever; instead had the time of her life! We would definitely recommend this outfitter for white water rafting and hope that one day will be able to return to Glacier to go once again!See more..
5.0Paradise Adventure Company(576 reviews) - Exciting Raft Trip down Yellowstone River. (Rafting has recovered in area; the road to Gardiner repaired) Saturday: 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM River Rafting & Tubing • Hiking & Camping Tours • Horseback Riding Tours
Kelsey (also known as "Wonder Beard") was our guide on this class II and class III adventure just north of Yellowstone. His knowledge of rafting, safety and the river were excellent -- he showed us a great time! He was also there during the record flooding that closed Yellowstone and destroyed houses in the area a few weeks earlier. Luckily the town of Gardiner MT is in solid shape, and rafting is open and running. Please support the local Gardiner area, which also has great food (the "Wonderland Cafe and Lodge" was the best food of our whole MT trip!), lodging, the Roosevelt Arch (albeit Yellowstone's north entrance still closed atm), and lots of rafting. At the end of June, which is normally peak season (but was interrupted by the earlier flooding), this treasure of a town has availability of lodging, short wait times for restaurants, and open slots for rafting. We were easily able to travel to Gardiner via roads from Livingston MT.See more..
My husband and I booked a rafting trip in the off season just before summer. Friendly staff when checking in and the company provided wetsuits, PFD’s, and booties with a waterproof jacket. Our guide Justin, was knowledgeable about Glacier National Park and other historic places in the US. He went over safety instructions and procedures before starting the trip. It was like a personal tour, since it was a small group, only 3 of us and Justin on the river. Would recommend Glacier Park Rafting to anyone who loves to enjoy nature!! See more..
5.0Yellowstone Raft Company(523 reviews) - Highlight of our vacation! Saturday: 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM River Rafting & Tubing
Our guides Sawyer and Kelsie were great! Not knowing how to swim, they made this experience enjoyable and safe for me. Our kids, ages 12 and 16, were entertained with the guides stories about the mountains and the community of Garnier and helping paddle. This trip was just the right mix of thrill and excitement for first time rafters.See more..
5.0Montana River Guides(480 reviews) - Clark Fork with TJ Saturday: 8:00 AM - 9:00 PM River Rafting & Tubing
What a beautiful stretch of the Clark Fork River we were able to experience! We went for the more mellow float trip as we had young children and their Grandma on board. TJ was our river guide, and he made the trip so much fun for everyone! He was informative, engaged with the kids, articulate, and safety-focused. We had such a great trip thanks to his leadership and will never forget this day on the river in beautiful Montana!See more..
5.0Pangaea River Rafting(256 reviews) - More than just rafting.... Saturday: 8:00 AM - 8:00 PM River Rafting & Tubing
Highly recommended!!!! Our family has been on several rafting trips but this was hands down our best experience. Josie, our guide, was fantastic. She wasn't just our rafting guide but a guide to fun. We took turns "riding the bull", "surfed" the rapids,, jumped from rocks into the river and even floated down some smaller rapids without the boat!!! Our 11 year old did all those activities and really let loose. Overall I recommend this company if you are looking for an experience beyond just floating down a river.See more..
5.0Adventure Missoula(96 reviews) - Best choice for fun family adventure in Idaho or Montana! Saturday: 8:00 AM - 6:00 PM River Rafting & Tubing • Other Outdoor Activities • Fishing Charters & Tours • Horseback Riding Tours • Kayaking & Canoeing
Our family of 5 from Washington state chose a half day white water rafting trip yesterday, as opposed to going to Silverwood, on our way to take our oldest to college in Bozeman. We are so glad we did this instead! So impressed with our experience with Adventure Missoula. Communication from beginning to end is excellent! Once we arrived, we were greeted right away by the friendliest staff and Murphy (the best dog in the world!) Alexis was SO good at leading the safety talk, making it funny and informative all at the same time. Lukas was our guide and we would ask for him over and over again! He was amazing with our two teens AND our 6 year old! So funny and cool without even trying, and patient with all the questions from our little guy. He expertly guided us through all the rapids with lots of “facts”. It was so fun! I would hands down choose this company over any other option!See more..
5.0Wiley E. Waters Whitewater Rafting(91 reviews) - Friendly Service and Accommodating Saturday: 7:00 AM - 7:00 PM River Rafting & Tubing
My first choice excursion was cancelled but Wiley E Waters was accommodating and switched us to a different trip at no extra charge. At the meeting site, we were immediately welcomed warmly as we waiting for the remainder of the group to arrive. The head guide went over and beyond what I expected and matched rafters to guides and other riders by getting a feel for compatible personalities. (Which is really neat! Who wants to be stuck on a small watercraft with people they find annoying?) This small detail made a positive impact on my impression of Wiley E Waters. Our family made wonderful memories with this new experience. I won’t forget my daughter’s reaction over the first rapid. She gave me a big genuine smile and said, “Mom, this is FUN!” and couldn’t wait for more. If a company can get a reaction like that from a tween, it’s definitely a win in my book. Sign up for your adventure with Wiley E Waters. You won’t be disappointed. See more..
5.0Montana Hunting Fishing Adventures(72 reviews) - Best Tenkara Guide ever! Jim Mitchell can teach you how & put you on fish! Saturday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM River Rafting & Tubing • Boat Tours • Fishing Charters & Tours • Nature & Wildlife Tours
Jim Mitchell is a great Tenkara Guide & teacher! We fished 2 days using Tenkara rods, 1-day wading on the Blackfoot River and 1-day float trip on the Bitterroot River. My wife and I had a blast. Jim put us on lots of good fish and we had a great time with him as our guide. We will be back to fish more days next time!See more..
5.0Adventure Whitewater(67 reviews) - An amazing time had by all!! Saturday: 7:30 AM - 8:30 PM River Rafting & Tubing
This was our first experience with whitewater rafting. Our guide was Marissa and she was talented as a guide and controlling the raft. She made our trip fun by engaging each of us in conversation and bantering with us back and forth. She was wonderful with our two grandchildren and let them participate in a way that was safe and fun for them also. Being knowledgeable about all the wildlife we saw she kept us entertained the whole journey. We would recommend this company to anyone wanting a great family adventure.See more..
5.0Paradise Adventure Co.(46 reviews) - Try the scenic float! Saturday: 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM River Rafting & Tubing • Sightseeing Tours • Hiking & Camping Tours
My 12 year old son and I were a little nervous about white water rafting so we were excited to learn about the scenic float option. We had Ben for our guide and he was great - he even helped my son "steer" the boat for a while. It was a great experience with beautiful scenery! See more..
5.0Bitterroot Fly Company(38 reviews) - Fantastic Experience all the way around. Saturday: 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM River Rafting & Tubing • Boat Tours • Fishing Charters & Tours • Nature & Wildlife Tours
Our party of 5 (2 adults and 3 teens) spent two days floating/fishing with Jim and Russ. We had a fantastic time. I was worried about our youngest (11yr old) who had never fly fished before, but Jim was patient and worked with her and guided her to an incredible first fly fishing outting. We lost count of how many fish she caught. Everyone had a great time and talked about the fishing and how great Jim and Russ were the entire trip. Anyone contemplating fishing with Bitterroot Fly Company should get on their schedule asap.See more..
5.0Flathead Raft Company(37 reviews) - Big rapids and fun floats with kids River Rafting & Tubing • Gear Rentals
This trip was amazing. Brett was so knowledgeable about the river and we had the BEST time. We had a boat to ourselves with our group of 11 with kids ranging in age from 9 to 15. The 15 year olds were in front and they rocked it. The 9 year olds held on in the middle, which was best. You also get a chance to hop out of the boat and float and swim down the river during the calm times and the kids and adults thought that was awesome too. Highly recommend over the West Glacier trips since there are far fewer boats on this part of the river and bigger rapids.See more..
5.0Absaroka River Adventures(23 reviews) - Great time with our 3yo on the Yellowstone River Rafting & Tubing • Boat Tours • Stand Up Paddleboarding • Kayaking & Canoeing
We needed an easy trip with just a little bit of rapids, and the water was too low on the river we were supposed to go on, so we ended up on the Yellowstone out of Columbus. Our guide Tim was a super nice guy and even took pictures of us on the raft and in the water. We got to see a train go by from 100' away which was awesome. Our kid loved the ride and had a ton of fun. Not too many people crammed into multiple buses like you'll get with somewhere more populated like on the Gallatin. Highly recommend.See more..
Just went on Just to Taste 1+ hour ride. Both my husband and I hadn’t been on a horse in 15 years. Horses were gentle, owners were super nice, and their daughter McKinnin was a great guide. Going through creeks and seeing the Mountain View’s was such an experience. Highly recommend. My review can’t do it justice.See more..
Dale was an awesome guide and he really knew the land well. We asked lots of questions and he was able to answer them. He is a fisherman so he shared lots of information about fly fishing. He was easy to be around, very pleasant to talk to and we learned so much about the area. We saw lots of deer, several osprey, a bald eagle, a coyote, and blue heron. The river was running high but we were in good hands with Dale. Dale brought cheese, sausage and crackers for a late lunch and also shared granola bars and water bottles and Gatorade. We were very pleased and happy that we spent the day with Dale on our float trip. We would highly recommend! See more..
