It was alright

I had the past 2 times in Jackson Hole booked with another operator and must say I made a mistake booking with this one. The other starts at Moose and ends in Wilson which is awesome. More wildlife, float right in front of Tetons and just better trip. This one starts at Wilson and ends downstream but is pretty much blah.

This is not a white water...

This is not a white water rafting experience. It is a leisurely (dry) float down a beautiful, wild part of the Snake River with many wildlife viewing opportunities and stunning scenery. I would recommend this trip to people of all ages who enjoy the beauty of nature.

Wonderful trip

Our guide was an expert at navigating the river. She shared stories about the area and pointed out the wildlife all around us. The float trip was a pure delight.

Excellent experience

Don’t hesitate to book with Dave Hansen. Pro operation, very friendly staff. About 3 hours total time, including bus to and from the river. Relaxing and beautiful.

Snake River Float Trip - May 14, 2026

The float trip was wonderful. Our guide's name was Julian, He was knowledgeable and personable. He pointed out wildlife on the trip and was mindful of any rough water, which was very little. Great trip! Thank you Dave Hansen and Julian.
