Paddle through an incredible 2000-foot deep rock canyon as you take on rapids such as "Wall Slammer", "Maytag", "Overboard" and "Mescal Falls". The river drops at over 20 feet per mile as it carves a canyon full of discovery and wilderness. The Upper Sonoran Desert scenery and fun filled whitewater make this an incredible place, best shared with friends and family. « less

5 of 5 stars Reviewed April 7, 2012

If you are on your way to kayak the Salt in AZ, better request Anna and Neil! These two were the best guides I had ever had and I’ve had a few. These two understanding the balance a guide need in order for the client to experience the adventure. Real adventurers get guides for their knowledge but do not want... More

“My 89 year old mom loved it!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed April 2, 2012

We were in the Phoenix area for my mom's 89th birthday and decided to try the Salt River Half Day Raft Trip.

5 of 5 stars Reviewed March 27, 2012

Opted for the all-day excursion on the Salt River on a trip with my daughter.

The scenery was spectacular, and we saw a bald eagle and its nest on the cliff next to the... More

“Salt River Trip is amazing!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed December 2, 2010

I did the Salt River Trip with Mild to Wild in 2010 twice! Once earlier in the season when the river was fast. It was chilly out, but the air was fresh & crisp. We had a great time! We went back again towards the end of the season with 3 of my cousins and my uncle. We all loved... More
