We had an excellent raft trip with Jeff as our guide! The whole team at Mad River made it a memorable, fun and pleasant experience. We saw wildlife and learned about the history and ecology of the river. Lots of splashing and fun, we highly recommend Mad River as your whitewater rafting tour provider.

The 10:30am group rafting experience was very enjoyable and would do it again without question. Our guide, Alec was exceptional. He took the time to explain more about the river and area and not just whitewater rafting. Definitely a must do when in the area.

For starters our 13 year old insisted that we must immediately give 5 stars and would do again. We loved it. Matt our raft guide was funny and knowledgeable. Even saw eagles! We had so much fun. Every staff person we came into contact with was more than helpful! Could not have had a better experience. They answer every question you can think of ahead of time. Experience was worth the price!!
