We had the best river rafting trip ever with Nik and Mikey as our guide. We paddled around a glacial lake amongst the icebergs and then headed down the rapids. Mikey sure knows how to shoot the rapids. He makes having fun uber fun More

MRTO half day river trip was recommended to us by another guide service in the Kennicott area that we did the glacier hike with.

During a recent visit to McCarthy, Alaska, we had the great fortune to take a rafting tour with McCarthy River Tours & Outfitters. Our guides, Lindsey and Mike, took us on an amazing cruise around a lake filled with beautiful icebergs and views of the glaciers and mountains that make up the area. The trip was geared to our comfort... More
