  • Great Family Trip!! Good Value!

    We took our grandsons (11 and 14) on the Green River trip. It was a really fun experience, with full participation required. The boys loved it!! Our guide, Emil was great. He is highly skilled, fun and engaging. It was certainly one of the highlights of our visit to Whistler. I intend to do the more challenging Elaho River trip with this company, when the young one is old enough(13). Highly recommended!

  • Loved It - Would do it again!

    You get to raft down the beautiful green river. Was great to get in the glacial waters. The guides are fantastic/exceptional - very personable and funny and make sure you have a good time. The rapids aren’t too crazy so it’ll be okay for older kids. We got lucky with beautiful sunshine our day. The river goes through the forests and with mountain views.
