excellent trip down the Salt River. Went end of April, water was quite high due to the amount of snow over the winter. Guides were great, felt very safe. Got really wet, which was great. Equipment excellent. They provided wet suits and booties if requested.

We had a great time on the Salt River! Justin was great, very knowledgeable, and we felt very safe with him. My husband and I have both complete several rafting trips in other states and countries. The Salt River doesn’t have the biggest rapids given it’s in the middle of the desert, but the scenery is beautiful and it’s still a really fun adventure! We will definitely visit again! This is a great river for first time rafters.
