I have been doing trips with OTT nearly every year since 2006, paddling the Rouge (twice), the Colorado River (Grand Canyon trip), the hotshots trip (Klamath, Umpqua, and California Salmon), the Main Salmon and Lower Salmon. This year, I will paddle the Sun Koshi in Nepal. I continue to return to this company for a number of reasons: 1) I... More

I have been on several trips with OTT on different rivers over the past 7 years and have always had a tremendous experience. I begin to look forward the next years trip right around the Holidays when I anticipate getting away from the crowds and just relaxing in an outdoor environment without the reliance on wires and technology. On all... More

My husband and I went on the 3 day Rogue River trip. It was the first trip of the year in June 2012. We had a wonderful time and felt like the guides were very professional. The time on the river was a blast. The lodges only provide soap and towel for the bathroom, so if you want to wash... More

Believe it or not, no helmets were available. Dangerous! The guides were unprofessional; they grouped together and we had to fend for ourselves. Unnerving!

This was my second trip with this outfitter and my expectations were exceeded again! I did the Rouge River from their home base in Oregon. With over 100 years of experience between 5 guides safety was a given! Inflatable kayaking whitewater is the best. The instruction was perfect and when you did fall in they were helping you back in... More

Orange Torpedo Trips is amazing. Great guides, beautiful landscape, fantastic kayaks, and an awesome three day trip. Thanks to Mike, Jim, Billy, Aaron, and Ben for a wonderful experience. You guys were wonderful guides and teachers along the beautiful and scenic Rogue! Wouldn't have wanted it any other way. Thanks again for a great trip! Everyone needs to check these... More

Great guides that know there stuff. Seemed like they were having as much fun as us! Felt safe yet adventurous. Had all levels of skill with us and OTT managed to find the right balance for us all!
