Satisfied! - Super fun, felt very safe the whole time, and Bridget was an absolutely amazing guide. Our group was pretty quiet but she still made it really enjoyable and upbeat. She’s very knowledgeable and clearly very experienced. I knew I was in good hands. The scenery was very pretty - drizzled a little bit but nothing that affected the trip as a whole. I would do the trip again, try another location if available, and request Bridget.

Great raft trip with Matthew B and Glacier Raft Co! - Matthew B was awesome! Great job calibrating to our group wanting big splashes! Learned a lot about the history of the river, felt very safe the whole time, and left with the best huckleberry pie recommendations, too!

HOOAH!!! - Was with Army buddy for an adventure trip. Fantastic tour, very scenic and great river conditions. Cam was a great guide. He had many facts about the water, environment, and history of the area. Was excellent at controlling the boat and training us to paddle. Highly recommend Cam and this company. Equipment was in fantastic condition and was a very safe experience.

Great family whitewater rafting experience - We went as a family, 4 adults and 2 eight year olds on their whitewater rafting trip. Highlights: -Claire, our guide, was super kind, had good knowledge of local history and nature factoids of the area. She was extra good with our two young rafters and even let them steer the boat at the end. -Their gear was newish and clean and had wetsuits that we used -Parking was easy and location was simple to find -Enough of a thrill to raise your heart rate, but also a lower risk for flipping and not overly aggressive for younger rafters. We really had a great trip and Claire did a great job!

Fantastic trip- highly recommend this company - What a fantastic trip. It’s organised with 4 miles gentle rafting, giving the instructor time to teach everyone how to paddle and what to do in various situations. Then it’s the 4 miles of rapids! This was great fun. Our leader Cait was amazing. She really knew her stuff- her knowledge of rafting, rivers and rapids was amazing and very reassuring, so we had complete confidence in her ability to get us through the trip, She also knew all about the local Geography/Geology/Biology/History and told us relevant snippets in a really interesting way and regaled us with a number of funny stories on the way as well. She had a great personality and made everyone feel at ease with her and everyone else in the boat. Thank you Cait and Glacier Raft Company for such a great trip.

Half day white water - We had a great time on this rafting trip. Phoebe R was very knowledgeable and confident navigating us. We felt very safe and learned a lot about the history of Glacier. Loved chatting with her throughout the calmer water and made us aware of what to expect during the rapids.
