We had a splendid time rafting on the Snake River with our professional and knowledgeable guide. I must say, I was nervous about this excursion. I knew right away we were in the hands of a well trained guide and we would have the most amazing experience. That's what it was, amazing! My daughter said it was the best part of our trip. read more

As part of a group travel adventure, we booked a Snake River Scenic River float trip with this company . We were picked up at our hotel by our bus driver George. Great guy, personable , informative and funny. He dropped us at the launch location and the lead River guide , Delaney, provided safety and instructional information for our trip. Delaney was our raft driver. She was amazing. The ultimate professional and so personable and friendly. She provided us with a wealth of information about the Snake River and the areas we traversed on our journey. The trip lasted just under 3 hours . We were , along with the 6 others in our raft, totally satisfied with this adventure. A smooth ride with just a bit of churning waters to add to the excitement. I highly recommend this business if you are in the Jackson Hole area. It's an experience you won't soon forget. read more

Stop your search. This is the one. With this review being for my first whitewater experience, I had no idea what to expect. The staff, bus driver, and everyone were exceptional. Our guide, Bryce, was so amazing my best friend said she's naming her next child after him. We did the 8-man raft 2-hour experience and I would do it a million times over. Dave Hansen Whitewater was knowledgeable, safe, and incredibly fun! read more

We had Callie as our guide today and she was amazing. She is a wealth of knowledge. We saw so many eagles today. We also saw magpies, osprey, mergansers, shore bird. 2 & 1/2 hours of relaxation and so much beauty from the river to the Tetons. Highly recommend the 13 mile float trip. read more

Insane views and amazing tour guides. All the employees were very nice as well. Our guide, Cali (from Florida), was chatting with our family of 10 the entire time and even let the small kids (7 and 5) row the raft with assistance. We saw about 10 bald eagles (including a premature one without the white head), a beaver dam, and some fish near the end. Tip: if you're floating in the morning, it's very chilly (I wore a sweater, fleece jacket, and jeans), but then the sun will be beating on you. Bring plently of water, snacks, and a change of clothes underneath because the ride is about 2.5 hours long. read more

Great trip on the Snake River! Awesome guide Charlotte-very knowledgable about rafting, the river, and the sights along the way. Fun experience whitewater rafting! Easy to book online, good value for the money. Was a nice afternoon. Our bus trip to the launch was great too! George, the driver told us a lot about the area and history along the way. Wasn't too rough for any age! We had a few kids and older people on our raft. All got pretty wet, but it was a hot day, so was enjoyable! Great for the whole family read more

On my last rafting trip in Costa Rica, I had a very, very traumatizing experience. I know I needed to get over it, so after a bunch of research, felt comfortable enough to use this company. Dave Hansen Whitewater is a top notch tour company. Their guides are well experienced and everything ran very professionally. Within minutes of being on the water I felt at ease and ended up having an absolute blast. In fact, this may be one of the best rafting trips I've ever been on. Just a note: there is a very steep walk at the end. If you aren't acclimated to the changes in elevation (I live sea level) you might want to take it slow. It was a very good reminder that I needed to get my butt in shape. Great trip. read more

10/10 - the platonic ideal of a rafting trip for my kids and I. Staff is super friendly but laid back and very helpful. Our trip was a 25 minute drive from town. You meet at their location in town, get geared up, and head out on their bus to the rafting point. The scenery was stunning, felt safe the whole time while also having some excitement. I cannot recommend this enough. Shout out to Callie our rafting guide! read more

Great activity! This was fun and relaxing and a huge chunk of that goes to our amazing guide Egen, he was absolutely fantastic. He is very knowledgeable about the river and even offered some awesome eateries around Jackson (we went to one for a late lunch after our excursion and it was delicious). The views are amazing and we saw 15 bald eagles, several osprey and some marmots. In the calmer sections the kids even got to "row" for a little bit (with Egen's help of course) and they loved it! This is great for kids and even the elderly population, my 75 year old mother did great and had a smile on her face the whole time! Definitely a family-friendly experience! read more

Fantastic trip today! The customer service was awesome the minute we walked in the door. The driver of our bus, Rebecca, immediately started chatting with us. She had such a fun personality! We took the scenic tour and it was just a short ride down to the ramp. Peter was our guide and was very professional. He knew a lot about the animals and land. His excitement for spotting eagles was contagious. Such a fun trip today! Thanks for making our experience so wonderful! read more

This was such a fun way to end my trip to Wyoming. I was staying in Jackson Hole and booked a scenic trip down the Snake River. Dave Hansen Whitewater Trips has been voted as one of the best activities to do in Jackson Hole. This company is one of the oldest river rafting companies in the area (since 1967) and is located in Town Square. They do both whitewater rafting and scenic float trips down the Snake River. Dave Hansen employs fun and knowledgeable river guides who really know how to make your trip down the river a fun day. I had Keren as my guide. She was awesome and shared with us a lot of info about the area. The Snake River is 1,078 miles long and flows all the way into Washington. We saw all types of birds and critters on our trip down including some marmots, an osprey and a bunch of bald eagles. The Snake River and Teton mountains are your backdrop and make for some beautiful views. I had such a nice and relaxing day and was able to take lots of pictures. Dave Hansen Whitewater Trips caters to almost almost all ages and is fun for the whole family. I highly recommend booking a trip if you are in the Jackson Hole area. read more

We had a blast with our guide Charolette! This was our first white water adventure and it won't be our last. We went at the end of July and while the rapids weren't massive, they were still super fun. It was great getting to know the other families on our raft and bonding over this adventure. This was the highlight of our vacation. 10/10 definitely recommend booking with Dave Hansen if you're in Jackson Hole! read more

Had an amazing time water rafting with Vlad as our guide. He is an experienced rafter and was able to manage for us to have an even more adventurous experience. He is also very knowledgeable of the area as well as the wildlife and dropped some knowledge on us during the calm portions. Dorothy was our bus driver to and from the snake river. She too is very knowledgeable of the area and adds jokes along the way. She also took pics of everyone as we headed out and on to the rafts and shared them with us as we got off the bus. I would do this again as well as advise others to try it out! read more

My husband and I loved the trip. They had to modify it from the 13 mile trip to the 8 mile trip due to the water levels, but it was an amazing experience. The guides are amazing. Would recommend this for everyone. The boat in front of us had children under the age of 10, and we had guests in our boat in their 80's. read more

1000% recommend this business!! Our guide, Delaney was wonderful. Our boat happened to be her first flip ever. She and the other boats around us sprang into action to make sure that we were safe and got everyone out of the water so quick. There are obvious dangers doing an activity like this but to have such knowledgeable people is wonderful. Not only did they check on us numerous times after getting back in the boat,when we got to shore, when we got back to the store, they even called to check on our family the following day! Definitely a first class business! We would ride with them any day! read more

Had a blast rafting on the Snake River with Dave Hansen crew! We did the combined scenic and whitewater trip and would highly recommend it. There was plenty of wildlife on the scenic portion and the whitewater portion was action packed. Our guides, Jacob and Brian, were wonderful, the bus drivers were amusing, and Bud was a very hands on owner coordinating everything. Also, it was very easy to book in advance via web site and phone support staff. read more

Amazing! Such a blast! We went in one of the small 8 person boats and going through the rapids with your kid "riding the bull" is an experience not to be missed! The guide was great, the bus driver was great, all and all it is an experience that is not to be missed! A couple of notes: 1. Bring your own towels to dry off after you take your wetsuits off and to sit on for the ride back. Even if you change your still a bit soggy and you'll be glad you have a towel 2. Rent the wet suits, jacket included!! Even if the sun is warm that water is mountain SNOW run off and is freezing! 3. Bring snacks and water for the bus ride. Especially the ride back to town. It's at least 40 minutes and you'll have been "out" for almost 4 hours by that point. Everyone in your group will be very thirsty and the littles especially will be starving! 4. If you have a really good waterproof case & strong lanyard for your phone bring it; there are some beautiful slow spots to take pictures. If it's questionable at all, leave it behind, the chance is too great! The water moves too fast and there's no way for any part of you to stay "dry" and keep it protected. They have photographs but only in one spot so it would have been nice to have other pictures along the way read more

Absolutely amazing and the ONLY place to go for white water rafting, scenic tours, and others. All staff was extremely friendly and helpful along the way. Our guide Bryce was something else though! He was so outgoing and amazing. Full of fun facts, jokes, and stories. An amazing guide! read more

8 person white water rafting experience was amazing! Bryce was the greatest guide. Fun, Safe with a great personality. Scenery was of course spectacular. Rapids were manageable for a first timer that was very hesitant. Bryce was very encouraging and took every rapid so we would have the best ride. read more

What a wonderful time we had on our river rafting trip. We did the small boat rapids tour at the end of May. Water levels were great so the rapids were flowing. We had our 15 and 11 yr old sons with us and they had a blast. There were two mellow parts where we could jump in the water. It was FREEZING but worth it. Don't forget to rent wetsuits. It would have been miserable without them read more

We booked an 8 person rafting tour (2 adults and a 12 yo) down snake river. We have never been white water rafting and this tour was very good for first timers. Class 2 and 3 rapids and lots of time to relax between rapids. Bryce led our raft and he made sure everyone was comfortable and had a good time! There were several sections of the river where you could jump off the raft and swim. Everyone was also provided with the opportunity to sit at the front of the raft for extra fun! But if you want less motion, the back of the raft is a good spot. Don't forget to rent wetsuits and jackets since it is cold. Rentals are included for kids 12 and under. Also, pack a towel to dry off at the end of the trip so you don't have to be wet for the 45 minute bus ride back. read more

We had the BEST EXPERIENCE! We will absolutely come back for more. We have an 8yr old and almost 6yr old and both of them can't stop talking about it. It was professional, safe, and entertaining. Alex was the best instructor! Thank you for making a core memory for our family! read more

Soooo much fun! I arrived so nervous! Especially scared that I would fall out. But they have a quick easy tip on how to prevent that from happening. My guide was so kind, funny, and easy to talk to. He had a very friendly personality. I only rented the wet jacket since I had water pants. Water was cold, but the water jacket definitely helped a lot. I'm sure their wet suits would have helped even more. Don't pass up on those. Definitely rent them if it isn't hot enough outside. And absolutely bring a extra change of warm clothes to change into afterwards. So glad to have experienced my first whitewater rafting with this company. No regrets whatsoever! read more

Best part of our trip out west so far. Great weather, great guide driver and staff. Don't not do this because your scared or believe it would not be fun.

Amazing ride down the Snake river. The trip from the shop to the drop-off point was great and filled with interesting tidbits about the area. The ride on the river was amazing and we enjoyed getting wet and the ride. It was a nice ride one that anyone could go down. Our guide made the ride even better with fun for everyone on the boat. We saw Eagles, Marmots, and Osprey along the way. We even saw someone pull a fish out of the river while floating down. I would do it again even with the rain that came down on us. Depending on how you handle the cold you might want to consider a wetsuit. read more

We really enjoyed our adventure floating down the Snake River. MacKenzie was our guide and she was friendly and shared fun facts about the area. Loved that she put all the passengers at ease.
