If you had fun please leave a review as a future guide to all who are seeking some outdoor excitement and fun. What a blast we had with Kyle our river guide! The weather was perfect and the water was chilly. I would highly recommend a wet suit jacket to keep your upper body warm and a pair of booties for your feet. I believe it’s $5 extra. Kyle was excellent and he knew the river and scenery. Besides the rapids we also saw several different wildlife species….Eagles, otters, etc…. We did not feel like we were going to fall out of the raft at all even when going through the two large rapids. No one on our raft got dumped in the river, only by choice when Kyle offered all of us a free swim. I will say the bus driver (Dan) was somewhat sketch and almost ran a stop sign on the drive back. I greeted him with a “good morning sir” and he jumped all over me and said do not call me sir. Besides him everything else was great! Barker -Ewing highly recommend. NCtravelgirl10 Adventure down the Snake River Whenever I’m at the National Parks, if there is a scenic float to be had, I’m on it!! Our trip to Glacier was awesome even though the last days were filled with smoke and fires from local thunderstorms. However, this did not prevent Baker-Ewing from ensuring we had an incredible experience. They were professional, fun, informative and great cooks….yes, I said cooks. We had the scenic river float and then heading back to the camp for a ‘mighty fine meal, ma’am.’ Honestly, we absolutely will not go wrong with booking this trip. Enjoy — we did. RobinH3204 Great float, terrific guide, friendly people!! Excellent time, guide was very knowledgeable (Collin) and we had a great time. He provided a lot of information on wildlife, history and a good sense of humor. He let us do some surfing with the boat at the end, which was really fun. The directions and booking process was very easy. They had some showers and restrooms we were able to use after the trip. Hotshots photo company was set up along river and took some nice action shots, that we purchased after trip GlobeTrotting598788 Whitewater Rafting My family went whitewater rafting last July with Barker-Ewing. Our group of 8, ages 11 through 68, enjoyed our trip immensely! Our guide was very competent and showed us all a great time. Our grandsons liked “riding the bull” and paddling the big rapids! Highly recommend this company. 129kathyp Exciting raft trip Large inflatables accommodating right and a guide steering the way down Snake River for a picnic meal in secluded spot. Nice guys pointing out features on the way. Low in September so some snaking needed to find the best route. No whitewater and it’s only 4 feet deep, much less on some places. No need to fear anything. Recommended way to spot wildlife including bald eagles. zygo Great. A slow comfortable trip downriver Last minute decision to do a scenic raft tour on our last day of a week long trip and really glad we did! Everyone was super friendly and knowledgeable! Babs our driver was so sweet! Fletch our raft guide was funny and very knowledgeable about the river and the animals! Would not hesitate to do it again!! Thanks to everyone from office staff to river guides, you should all be very proud of yourselves for bringing smiles to the faces you serve!! gkjsb7272 Scenic river tour I had researched Float trips before my husband and i visited Grand Teton NP in September, 2018. Barker-Ewing stood out because of its decades long history. Jed was our guide for eleven of us in a sturdy float. He efficiently and safely guided it down the sparkling, and sometimes “bubbly” (Jed’s description) water of the Snake River. He was competent and knowledgeable answering our questions. Although we did not see large animals, Jed pointed out two different eagles who were surveying their territory. This trip is entirely in the GTNP, so we were blessed with seeing the mountains from different angles and different light. This was an awesome experience, one we will always remember. sallyanne Floating Past the Scenery of your Dreams Previous Next Leave A Review Membership & Certification Our job is to minimize the risk while showing you a great time on the Snake River.

WHITEWATER: • Bathing suit or quick drying shorts and a t-shirt • Water shoes or sneakers – NO flip flops or crocs • Splash jackets included – wetsuits and booties available for rent SCENIC: Whatever you’re comfortable in! Wear layers in the morning as it tends to be chilly. What to bring? WHITEWATER: Bring whatever you’d like (change of clothes, snacks & water, towels, etc.) and USE YOUR BUS SEAT AS A LOCKER! Your bus driver will stay with the bus the whole time you’re on the river SCENIC: Bring your camera on this stretch of river! We usually see lots of wildlife like bald eagles and hopefully some big game.
