    Fun and exhilarating rafting trip with lots of exciting rapids. Got a great view of Snake River and local wildlife including a bald eagle. Felt safe, and our tour guide Britnie was great fun as well as professional and informative. Although relatively expensive I would still a highly recommend for anyone visiting the area.

    I've floated the Snake River a few times and Mad River is the best. The bus driver was friendly showing us Eagles nests on the way and even taking pictures of us before we left. Jeff was our guide and he was fun, friendly and kept us safely inside the boat. We had a blast and will definitely come back and float with Mad River again!

    Really friendly outfit, had a great time. Make sure to wear water shoes with a heel, not flip flops, otherwise you might lose them! Also consider getting those "croakie" things (they rope your sunglasses around your neck so they don't fall off). Actual time in river was about 1hr15min (~7.5 miles along the Snake River), with ~30 min bus rides to/from the drop points. Saw some bald eagles (including a molting adolescent), osprey, and a family of beavers along the route. Went through 6 sections of rapids, with levels of 1-3. There are restrooms and changing rooms at their location, there's a restroom at the boat launch, and restrooms and changing rooms where you end the trip at boat pickup (before the return bus trip). There's a pretty long hike back from the boat drop to get to the buses (like half a mile), but the trail is well groomed and easy enough to follow (it was just a nuisance). We picked this company because they were cheaper than the other two outfits in Jackson Hole with nearly identical reviews. (The other two companies are located right in town on the main strip, and had bus loads of people, with their boats packed to the brim. I'm very glad we picked the cheaper and less popular option to have a better rafting experience where we got to take our time going down the river, enjoy the trip, and observe all the wildlife along the shoreline). Highly recommend, would use them again. Ree was our river guide and Dustin was our driver.

    We enjoyed our white water rafting trip with Fitz. Just to touch on a few things we were not aware of... They give you the option to wear a water proof jacket provided by them at no charge before you put on a life jacket. You have to walk quite a ways from the boat ramp to the bus after your trip (maybe a 1/4 mile...all up hill). Doable for most, but it is a little ways. I would recommend waiting until you are back to the office to change...do not use the changing area at the boat ramp. You can use Venmo to tip the guide after you get back to the office.
