Bonnie_P, Aug 2023
Great 8 miles on the river. First time we did this as a group. It was the perfect effort level for us. We had lots of fun! There is a lot of down time. Historical knowledge and sharing by the guide would help fill that time.
Response from Host, Aug 2023

Thank you so much!! We really appreciate your kind review and are so happy to hear that you had a great time!!
Great family fun!.

The guide, Chase, was exceptional. The whitewater challenge was just right for beginners. It was exciting and challenging but not scary. My 10-year-old grandson said it was the best part of the vacation. The only reason I didn't give this five stars was the changing facilities did not have showers for afterwards, and the wetsuits smelled a bit of mildew (hard to avoid in these facilities).
Response from Host, Jul 2023
Thank you so much!! We are so happy to hear that you and your family had such a wonderful experience!!

Great experience with Joe and team. Super fun and enjoyable and with young children doing it for the first time, I really appreciated their care with the kids and approach to safety. Highly recommend going with Wild West Rafting.

Great for a short family adventure. I took my 12 year old daughter, who was a little scared, but she had fun and said she would do it again.
A great time.
Aaron_C, Aug 2021
We had a great time! Only wished we had done the full day! Michael was our guide, and he was great! Will do it again next time here.
Two Hours of Awesomeness!
Lynn_H, Jul 2021
The most memorable part of the experience was seeing a family of otters swimming nearby. It was a fun time had by all, which included 4 kids between 8 and 14, 2 adults 38 and 64 (plus 3 other unrelated adults and the guide). Michael made the experience extra special with fun facts and joking. It can be a little chilly toward the end of 2 hrs, but, we warmed up on the bus.
Great experience!
Ernie_H, Jul 2021
Great experience from start to finish! Jake was our guide, fun & enjoyable conversations. Company itself was very well run, professional, & it was evident they all had passion for what they do. Thank you for a wonderful time!
SUPER AMAZING!!!
cindy_s, Jul 2021
Our guide Jake was awesome!! He was very patient and encouraging with us first timers. We had an 2, 8 and 9 yr old with us and he couldn't have treated them better, always willing to lift them back into the raft after swimming. Next time we re in the area we're doing the all day trip!!
A lot of fun!!
Marisol_S, Jul 2021
Everyone was great to work with. Michael our guide, was a lot of fun. This was a great introduction to rafting. We went at very comfortable pace. Hit some rapids and smooth water. I will definitely be doing this again when I’m back in Montana.
