    We had a great experience with the "lunch trip" rafting package. The guides and other staff were…read morevery friendly and everything went smoothly throughout the day. Staff were very conscientious about safety. The lunch was more adventurous than I was expecting--grilled chicken, tzatziki, couscous, and a vegetable salad, with PBJ sandwiches as an option, and ridiculously good, freshly baked chocolate chip or blueberry & lemon cookies. Our guide Joey was knowledgeable and entertaining. During the day we saw lots of wildlife: tons of trout jumping at caddis flies, a mink, deer, merganser ducks, and multiple bald eagles, golden eagles, and ospreys. The river itself is beautiful. A few tips: You can bring additional food or beverages and leave them on the bus, which meets the party at the lunch spot. Several groups rafting with us brought small coolers with their own drinks and snacks. Probably a great idea if you have any food restrictions. It's recommended that you leave any valuables or electronics (or other water-sensitive items) in your car or in a lockbox with the staff. The guides have some limited room in a dry bag for phones or cameras, but it's not the most convenient to be taking a phone out of the drybag and putting it back in. You will not have cell service most of the day anyway, which was actually rather relaxing. Even the town of Stanley doesn't have great cell service in areas, so you may want to set up an "away" or "do not disturb" notice for the day. Sunblock and a hat are helpful; you'll be in the open sun on the water for most of the day. Highly recommend this company for rafting in Stanley.

    Stellar boat trip with Iz down the Salmon River.

I got just the right amount of splashed and enjoyed jumping off of accurately named "Jump Rock" to cool off. Iz even let one of our group members have a hand in guiding during the chill parts of the river - many smiles and laughs today - thank you to The River Company for a lovely afternoon well spent :)

    My trip was in June 2012 I've done two multi day trips down…read morethe Grand Canyon and wanted to try another famous float. I'm glad I picked Middle Fork Rapid Transit and The Middle Fork river. Great food and great guides. One of the owners (Grant) came along for the first two days of the trip before flying out. Grant often answered the phone and answered all my questions. This is the only river they do and being family owned, is what helped sell me on rafting with them. They even accomdated my camper that I needed to plug in for the week I was gone so the batteries would stay charged. They also offer a discount on return customers. One old timer on our trip came back just about every year. .

    WOW! What a fabulous trip! We had heard that this would be a fantastic experience, but everything…read moreway exceeded our expectations. The crew was so friendly, knowledgeable, skilled, and went out of their way to make us comfortable and happy. We had beautiful trombone music in the evening and again in the morning, signaling breakfast. The food? Well, suffice it to say, I actually gained 2 lbs! Gourmet food...delicious! Everything was so well organized and easy. The people we traveled with have become lifelong friends now. The Middle Fork? Gorgeous, breathtaking...and the guides knew stories and geological information that was really interesting and educational as well. Tim & I highly recommend this trip. You'll love it!!!
