What Our Adventurers Are Saying

Great trip! Super fun, rafting was great, guides were really nice, the lodges and camp sites were comfortable, food was delicious, and the river was beautiful!


-Leah

Our 5 day trip with River of No Return was an outdoor adventure like we have never experienced before or since. Everything was taken care of, and we were able to sit back and relax, except of course, for when we needed to hang on through the rapids. Our guides were fun, clearly experienced, and it was obvious they love what they do. It was a great way to experience a beautiful part of the country and spend quality time with our family. We hope to make it back again someday!


-Natalie

I loved every part of the river trip…..I’m not super “outdoorsy” so I was worried. But the sunshine, the scenery, the meals, the friendships, the relaxation…..it was awesome. Best family trip we have ever taken. (Being technology free for 5 days was Heavenly….especially with teenagers…..they actually spoke to me!)


-Colette

My entire family enjoyed our week long raft trip with River of No Return Wilderness Outfitters and are looking forward to making the trip again. The guides were exceptional, especially with my two young children. The river, food, and games were all perfect. We couldn’t have asked for a better vacation.


-Sarah

Just returned from a fabulous 5 day raft trip on the Main Salmon. What a wonderful once in a lifetime type experience (but we loved it so much we will probably go again). Wildlife abounds, rapids challenge, and food was delicious. The guides and Matt were awesome and we made some new friends too!
