Overview

Escape the crowds with a family-owned business guiding the Snake River since 1971! Unlike standard tours that pack 16 people into a boat, Lewis & Clark strictly limits this Classic Raft to just 12 guests maximum. You get the legendary Class II and III rapids like Big Kahuna, Lunch Counter, Champagne, and Ropes. Best of all, you enjoy them with more room to paddle and personal attention from your guide. Our 17-foot self-bailing rafts offer the perfect balance of stability and splashes. This 8-mile journey is ideal for families and first-timers. Enjoy calm stretches for swimming and stunning canyon scenery. Convenient changing rooms are available right at the river take-out, so you can change into dry clothes immediately before the shuttle ride back! Trips depart from our office at 180 Powderhorn Ln with free parking. Private rafts are available for groups, so please call to book! Looking for maximum adrenaline? Check out our "Small Boat" option. It is the wettest ride on the river!
