My husband and I came to Sun Valley on a business trip and decided to have some fun, too, so we decided to go rafting. I started calling around Friday for a Saturday trip. I left a message wanting to book a trip for Saturday. David not only called me back right away, he spent a long time on the... More

We loved our rafting trip with The River Co. Dave and Heather were so professional and friendly. The entire staff was attentive, courteous and very experienced. We particularly enjoyed our guide Erin. Oh, and did I mention the amazing lunch on the river? Homemade lunch, amazing bean dip and chips, pecan brownies...yum. We are coming back next year and look... More

I had heard such fabulous things about this company prior to our visit- when asking local friends who to use. As soon as we arrived, we were greeted with smiles and helpful people to get us all situated. The waterproof jackets were so helpful to prevent sunburn/ or getting too cold on the river (for the little ones/ big ones... More

The crew at the River Company are very professional and personal. I had a great adventure and would recommend them to everyone considering a trip down the salmon river. I am looking forward to my next trip with them. Do yourself a favor and check them out online or by phone, you want regret it.

The River Company did an excellent job and we would recommend them to everyone. The entire trip was enjoyable, from the guides taking the time to memorize everyone's name and give personal attention to the homemade cookies during the rest stop. They were fun, but very knowledgeable and professional as well. They offer paddle boats for those that want to... More

Our family rafted the middle fork of the Salmon River with The River Company in July, 2011. It was a fantastic experience. Our older daughter was uncertain she even wanted to go, but she is now entirely hooked and wants to go rafting again, "soon!" The entire experience, from making reservations with Dave to floating the river with Loid was... More

You are amazing! THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HELP AND DEDICATION in getting our raft and belongings off the river. Wish we could have been there to help, too. A special thank you to David and the guides who took on the task. It was very much appreciated, and it's obvious you run a wonderful, honest business! Hats off... More

These guys were awesome from the beginning to end. They ensured that we were safe while hitting a bunch of class III rapids which was this Mom's biggest worries. The rapids were just perfect for our first time. The kids loved it and Celina made our day. She focused on the kids and let them “ride the bull” sitting on... More
