The staff is amazing! We had Sue as our bus driver and she bought cupcakes with lighted candles for my father’s 88th birthday. Kolten was our river guide, what a nice guy! Beautiful scenery, a pleasant afternoon for sure.

Amazing time water rafting in the Snake River at Jackson Hole. The entire experience was fun for the family. Mmmm kids are 12 and 7 years of age. It was the first time for all of us and I highly recommend it. Guide was Pony Boy and he was amazing the entire time with details and guiding us the 8.5 miles. Thanks for the great time and memories.

A fun experience rafting over the Snake River. Everything was as planned and advertised. Alec, our guide, kept us involved and safe and wet. The segment included class || and a couple class ||| rapids. Great activity, must do, while in Jackson Hole, and Mad River offers great value for the price. Great communication before, during, and after trip.
