Family Friendly Gallatin River Whitewater Rafting

Overview

Looking for some whitewater while avoiding white-knuckle rapids? The 3 hour Upper Half Day trip is perfect for families, first-timers who are timid, or for those who aren’t strong swimmers – especially in June when we have high water. Enjoy fun rapids such as Hilarity Hole, Screaming Left, and Killer Fang. These rapids offer plenty of splashes and relatively easy navigation without the challenge of long rapids like the Mad Mile. This trip is packed with splashes and smiles!

Our family of six had a great time for this adventure. They were lower priced than others but that did not effect the service. Riley was a great guide who was very funny and personable. My son starting feeling sick the last part of the journey and Riley was extremely attentive. It was very exciting and we had such a great time. We will definitely do this again and request the same guide for our journey.

Our experience on the Gallatin River was fantastic. Hatter was an experienced guide with 20+ years white water rafting in areas around the US and Central America. We had a great time with the company on the raft, the scenery is unparelled, and the 3-4 class river was completely doable in July. I would recommend to anyone who wants to have a good time and is looking for a reputable adventure company that doesn't have a stick up their butt. Also, they have a great food truck onsite: burgers, vegetarian options, and homemade hummus.

Best time! Life memories! Thank you for all the fun. We were unable to purchase pictures on the spot because of another commitment and then we waited past the year deadline. I thought the pictures were lost forever but the gals dug in and researched. Heather found all our pictures! I’m grateful beyond words! Thank you for caring about your customers so much! We will be back again, every year! A wholehearted thank you! The Guys!
