had been on my bucket list since they were born. As soon as my youngest grandson was 7, we signed up. The trip fulfilled all my expectations and more. I wanted my grandchildren and their mom to appreciate the grandeur of our great country, see the stars, imagine how our great explorers and settlers went through the wilderness and have a great outdoor experience in a different part of the country from our home which is Miami.<\/p>\n<p>We had been on a rafting trip in the Grand Canyon with our children 30 years ago but since we had never been to Idaho, we chose Salmon Raft and the Salmon River. What a great choice we made! Lauren and Chris, the owners, have assembled an amazing crew of boatmen\/women. They were competent, patient, intelligent, athletic, great cooks, handsome and beautiful&#8212;I would have been thrilled to have them as my kids! They were also great teachers about the environment and our responsibilities to keep it pristine. The leader, Tanner, is an EMT so right there you feel safe. The rest of the crew, Medda,Jasper, Blaine, Esme, Olivia and Rachael, all had a wealth of experience and were young and fun!!<\/p>\n<p>Our grandchildren are 10 1\/2 and 7 1\/2 and luckily, the three other families on our trip had children the same ages so one of the rafts became the kid&#8217;s raft. If we weren&#8217;t going over rapids, you could hop off the rafts for a swim or use one of the rubber kayaks. There were plenty of thrilling rapids each day but I never felt in danger as I had total confidence in the crew.<\/p>\n<p>The days started off with packing up our dry bags and clearing out our tents. Let me back up. The equipment raft has gone ahead each day and had the tents and pads set up before the rafters arrived. After a hearty breakfast, we were off. There were 4 rafts in addition to the equipment raft. Usually there was a stop in the morning for a short hike or for jumping off the rocks. The kids loved that but one of our group tried to use her go-pro to film herself jumping and that ended with no more go-pro which was a shame. After lunch and another stretch on the river, we were always greeted with a great campsite and our little tents awaiting us. There was time for a swim (usually with &#8220;beverages&#8221; for the adults) before dinner. Our group bonded so there was great conversation and joking. There was constant ribbing about our outdoor &#8220;facility&#8221; nicknamed &#8220;The Groover&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>We were on the 3 night\/4 day trip so we rafted the lower Salmon and the Snake after the two rivers came together. I would give this trip a 100 star recommendation. It is not a &#8220;glamping&#8221; trip but it is not hard core roughing it either. You have to like the great outdoors and be a good sport but if you don&#8217;t have that mindset you probably aren&#8217;t looking at this trip.<\/p>\n<p>This was the best family trip ever and will be one of those trips you and your children will never forget.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"visible wf-cell iso-item\" data-post-id=\"2003\" data-date=\"2022-04-19T20:49:47+00:00\" data-name=\"Andrew &amp; Erin\"><div class=\"testimonial-item post visible\"><div class=\"testimonial-author\"><div class=\"testimonial-vcard\"><div class=\"testimonial-name\"><span class=\"text-primary\">Andrew &#038; Erin<\/span><br \/><\/div><div class=\"testimonial-position\"><span class=\"text-secondary color-secondary\">Ballard, WA<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"testimonial-content\"><p>I had an unreal experience on the river with Salmon Raft. A group of 18 did 5 days on the Salmon, followed by a jet boat trip up the Snake on the last day to the takeout.<\/p>\n<p>Just the food that was prepared for us would have made this trip worthwhile, but there was so much more than that. We had a blast flying through the rapids and lounging through the calmer parts of the river. We played games at camp in the evenings, held rock-skipping competitions during lunch, and even got to hike to the top of the canyon for an amazing view. Several people in our group got the chance to fish, with varying levels of success. The guides even caught a 6 foot sturgeon on the first night &#8211; wow!<\/p>\n<p>Every minute of scenery was breathtaking, I don&#8217;t think I&#8217;d ever get tired of the canyon walls. Every night we camped on soft, white sand beaches and fell asleep to the sounds of the river. We got our share of wildlife throughout the trip: bighorn sheep, chukars, eagles, a toad, and plenty of fish.<\/p>\n<p>Every guide was incredibly helpful, kind, and knowledgeable. I had a great time just chatting with the guides about the history and ecology of the river, and heard some great river tales too. It was obvious Salmon Raft and all their guides act as stewards for this beautiful river and this amazing place. And not to mention badass: hauling gear, setting up camp, cooking meals, and expertly navigating the rapids.<\/p>\n<p>And the food&#8230; So good! I&#8217;d like to think I&#8217;m a decent cook in a home kitchen and the guides were putting me to shame, miles from civilization, 4 days after the coolers were filled. Nothing better than sitting on a white sand beach with fresh fruit, pancakes, bacon, and coffee as the sun comes up over the canyon walls. Every meal was different, and every meal was delicious. I mean restaurant quality, gourmet stuff, 3 times a day.<\/p>\n<p>Can&#8217;t wait for next year.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"visible wf-cell iso-item\" data-post-id=\"2002\" data-date=\"2022-04-19T20:48:50+00:00\" data-name=\"Therese S\"><div class=\"testimonial-item post visible\"><div class=\"testimonial-author\"><div class=\"testimonial-vcard\"><div class=\"testimonial-name\"><span class=\"text-primary\">Therese S<\/span><br \/><\/div><div class=\"testimonial-position\"><span class=\"text-secondary color-secondary\">Michigan<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"testimonial-content\"><p>What an amazing crew and such a great experience.

It was my oldest son&#8217;s 32nd birthday celebration, a super special way to go. Ever since our first trip with our whole family, all the kids said it was the best family vacation. So we had high expectations. Salmon Raft does not disappoint. The guides work so hard the whole trip and totally embrace a super high level of customer service attitude. Safety was never a question, even as we navigated class 2, 3 and a couple class 4 sections on the river. And beautiful? Amazing scenery all along the route. A perfect time for 5 days to be free from the burden of our technological world, reassess values and chart a refreshing course back in civilization. I also have to say, the food blew my mind. Every meal was a home run, prepared and delivered out in the middle of nowhere. I don&#8217;t know how they did it, but they did, over and over.<\/q><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"visible wf-cell iso-item\" data-post-id=\"2000\" data-date=\"2022-04-19T20:45:59+00:00\" data-name=\"Christine T\"><div class=\"testimonial-item post visible\"><div class=\"testimonial-author\"><div class=\"testimonial-vcard\"><div class=\"testimonial-name\"><span class=\"text-primary\">Christine T<\/span><br \/><\/div><div class=\"testimonial-position\"><span class=\"text-secondary color-secondary\">Ann Arbor, MI<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"testimonial-content\"><p>Salmon raft was top notch!

Chris and Drew took us out and it happened to be only the 4 of us on this trip. Had a great time enjoying the view for the 1st half of the day.. then switched over to the duckie to have some fun in the waves in our own craft. (I would highly suggest trying this out). We ate like kings\/queens for both lunch and dinner (great sandwiches, homemade cookies, steaks, peach cobbler, and even a few drinks). Camp was set up in an excellent spot with great views and an awesome beach. Day 2 had the larger rapids which I would also suggest doing using the duckie.

From the lunches (what a variety of choices: fresh fruit, cheeses, cold cuts, home baked cookies and salads) to the sublime experience of eating a three course dinner on a beach (steaks, Portobello mushrooms stuffed with spinach and goat cheese, wine, champagne, beers and a peach cobbler which blew our collective socks off) we felt really spoiled!<br \/>\nOur guides were efficient, charming, worked incredibly hard to ensure we could relax and do some bonding.

Our guide took expert care to read the river before each &#8220;rapids experience&#8221; to ensure our safety. Prior to rafting the Salmon, Derek observed the highest class rapids to plan for the execution of those rapids. Two experienced raft guides followed our raft in case a water rescue was necessary. Additionally, an inflatable kayak was brought for the use of the more adventuresome &#8211; after several rapids in the raft, our son chose to run the Salmon in the kayak. With individualized instruction for managing the kayak and safety protocols explained, our son extended his river experience paddling the kayak, Great consideration for his safety was provided. Our guide chose the water path for the kayak carefully, avoiding the most dangerous sections of the river, while offering class 3 paddling for our son. Certainly, this was the most safety-driven rafting experience we have had.<\/p>\n<p>The guides are very personable. After the hour ride to the drop-off, conversations had turned strangers to friends. Everyone involved in our experience was considerate, informed and positive. Laughter and stories (primarily of fishing and other outdoor adventures) were freely exchanged.<\/p>\n<p>Professionalism is also apparent within this company. All of my pre-trip questions were answered thoroughly. We were carefully instructed in the &#8220;what-to-do-if&#8221; scenarios that could occur during a class 3 to 4 rapids rafting trip. While on the river, our guide explained some of the mining situations currently taking place on the Salmon. Derek also pointed out historical evidence of past living along the Salmon. He is also a &#8220;darn good&#8221; geologist! After telling me about a phenomena that occurs when striking pieces of quartz together, he found two pieces of the mineral for us to try later.<\/p>\n<p>Lauren, one of the owners and the van and raft trailer driver, is also professional and thoughtful. She arranged our trip exceptionally well &#8211; there were no surprises.
