We decided to take a rafting trip to give our teenagers some thrills after a couple days of Yellowstone nature walks, so we booked a half-day tour online. The booking process was flawless and the staff/guides were very pleasant and helpful throughout the day. Others have commented on the launch process, and I want to mention it too. We are... More

Everyone in our group of 10 enjoyed our day on the Yellowstone. I would strongly recommend a day with this company. For the thrill-seekers out there, an early season trip should satisfy them; in late August our kids and grandma felt challenged enough without any real fear of 'carnage'. Kudos to our guide Pat for keeping everyone engaged and laughing... More

My wife and I had our first experience with whitewater kayaking during our recent visit to the Yellowstone Raft Company in Gardiner, MT. Everything about the experience was excellent. The online booking was easy. The staff at the office was friendly. Our guide was knowledgeable and friendly. He spent about twenty minutes prior to hitting the water giving us some... More

This is the second time I have gone down the river with the Yellowstone Raft Company. This time I went with my cousin from Texas for a little Montana fun! Our guide was great am again impressed with the knowledge he had of having a good time on the river and still staying safe. Thanks Yellowstone Raft Company for a... More

We were a family party of 8 who took a half day trip in the afternoon with YRC. Cory was our guide. The whole experience was fantastic for our guests who were visiting Yellowstone for the first time from the east coast. Their two teenagers had smiles a mile wide for the rest of the day and next. The trip... More

The entire experience was a treat. Our guide Cory was entertaining and funny, yet competent and professional. He made sure we all had a very enjoyable time. Staff in the office made check-in a breeze. The time on the river was thrilling, but never frightening. I will definitely go back to this rafting company my next visit to Gardiner. Good... More

Our experience on the water was outstanding. Pat, our guide and raconteur was excellent and informative, and kept us entertained the entire time. The low points were the forced marching with the rafts. The takeout wasn't too bad, but getting the raft to the river was steep, slippery, and hazardous and a person in another party slipped and was injured.... More

I have used this company every time that I have rafted in Yellowstone. I cannot say that they are better than the other companies, but I CAN say that they are GREAT. Sarah at the front desk is a delight and takes great photos of the trip. Our guide was Daniel, a Mississippi lad with a thick fantastic accent. We... More

Our guide, Sarah, was excellent. She is a native of Gardiner and knows a lot about the area, restaurants, wildlife and geology. She was great with the kids. YRC gives you a little longer trip than the competition -- put in upstream and take put downstream of other operators we saw. Highly recommended.
