We had so much fun rafting with Rein! He was such a knowledgeable and friendly guide! My family had so much fun on the rivet! We definitely recommend River Rats!

We LOVED our experience with River Rat!! We had 31 rafters with kids ages 8-16. Experienced guides and overall a wonderful experience.

This was the perfect trip for any one looking to have fun and also learn a little bit about… stuff! Our guide,Rein, really brought the laughs and thunder throughout our trip!!! We were whipping and bumping through those rapids with ease… probably because the rapids were no match for the storm Rein brought with him!!! Also - he is from Alaska and knows how to survive if you get stranded!!! 10/10 recommend .. would absolutely do again.
