Summary: Beautiful day on the river. Convenient location, short ride to the river. Very informative. We saw 7 bald eagles up close to the edge of the river. It was truly a scenic float and we did not get wet. 10 people, 2 families and us. The views of the Tetons above us were stunning.

Summary: We did the scenic float with our two older grandchildren and it was a lot of fun. Main wildlife seen are birds like bald eagles but you never know what you might see floating! Nice supply like gift shop, clean facilities, friendly and informative staff...the bus ride to and from the river was easy and so was loading/getting out when rafting trip was done. Calm enough water for us older folks and enough "splash warning" with short, small rapids to keep the teens entertained. A wonderful guide and overall experience i hope to enjoy again. If your considering spending the money anyways? Consider supporting this family run business.
