My wife and I went and everyone was so kind and pleasant to be around. The staff was top notch, so professional in every way. The food was unbelievable good. We went for three days, camped out, caught over 200 fish and they cooked some for us. Will go again. Thank You

We had a great time hunting and fishing on the Snake River for 3 days. The guides (Peyton and Aidan) were awesome. We caught salmon, countless bass, white fish, and few huge sturgeon. Also had a successful chucker hunt. The camp was comfortable and the food was some of the best we have ever had (thank you, Aubrey). Our family created some great memories and would highly recommend MRO to anyone wanting to experience jet boating in Hells Canyon.

My sons and I took a five-day, four-night rafting trip on the Salmon River in late July. I wouldn't classify it as a vacation, but more of an adventure. From beginning to end, the trip was highly organized and well run. The guides took fantastic care of us. both on the river and off. The meals at camp were excellent and the team always went the extra mile to make sure we were having fun. The scenery was phenomenal throughout the 90-mile trip and we saw a lot of wildlife along the way. This was unquestionably one of the very best trips we've ever taken and I would highly recommend to anyone that loves the outdoors, camping and wants some adventure.

My wife and I were visiting family in Idaho and did a day trip down the Salmon with Mountain River Outfitters. It was a great experience and would certainly recommend and do again when back. Last year we did a half day in a different location with different group, which was great also, and wanted to do a full day. First half was more of a cruise with beautiful sceneries, following by awesome shore lunch, and finish with heavier rapids, for the fun of us adrenaline junkies. The guides were all awesome, and safety is always a priority, without lacking fun!

I bought my first camping experience, a 3-day camping rafting trip last minute, 5 days before leaving as my schedule freed up. This had been on my list for years. I was not informed on the phone by Brenda that there was an option for travel insurance ir given any suggestion to procure, she gladly took the $1100 and said an email would follow up. I received an email of details 2 days before I left and a note about travel insurance was embedded amongst many other details. I arrived mid an official heat advisory and heat wave. I got dizzy walking down the street in 105 degrees. I called Brenda and asked for a credit for a future trip or refund. There was no way I could do 3 days in this heat 100% outside. I asked if I could do 1 day and come home if it was too much - no. My options was pay for a helicopter lift or flag down a jet boat, pay them and then pay a guide 2.5 hour round trip to pick me up. Those were my only 2 options I had to walk away from $1100 or risk being stuck in the wilderness of Hells Canyon during a massive heat wave. No consideration of Act of God.

We did a two day trip on the Main Fork of the Salmon River in early August 2023. Weather was comfortable 85 degrees, and the river was running at about 7,000 CFS. The trip was wonderful. The guides were knowledgeable and wanted to share their obvious love of the river and the land. The guides were supported by the company with a high level of organization. The food was great, and they were well able to adjust for dietary restrictions. Camp sites were well planned and quite comfortable. This was my first rafting experience, and it could not have gone better.

We had a wonderful memorable five day trip on the main Salmon with an outstanding crew of professional, attentive and friendly guides. We camped on beautiful sand beaches where the guides planned fun for the kids, relaxation for the grown-ups and three delicious meals every day. We toured historic sites, hiked a little, climbed to a hot springs, paddled kayaks and learned tons about the river. We saw big horn sheep and lambs, otter, mink, a baby black bear, eagles, chukar, grouse, osprey, deer and fawns, bass, northern pike minnows and merganser ducks. A one-night stay at China Bar lodge was perfect. The white water was super fun and our guides kept us safe. Jenn was an excellent team lead and Kate was especially fun -- so ask for them :-)

Five days on the Main Fork Salmon river. Exciting rapids beautiful scenery and great food. The guides were great. Kate was especially fun and engaging! Highly recommend.

Went on our first 4 day, fishing/rafting trip and it was WONDERFUL! Great guides, very knowledgeable, very safe and super nice! Food was delicious, scenery was incredible, fishing was a blast, and have already requested to go again next year! Highly recommend MRO and cant wait to see them all next year!!

Safe,fun with great guides, water was low so this would be safe and fun for all ages. The boats were not overloaded. And the guides provided a great lunch, I would definitely use them for an over night trip

One of the best experiences we have ever had. Such a great mix of calm river floating and wild rapids… we had a blast! This will be something we do every year. Our guide (Beckham) was the BEST!

The whole adventure ran smoothy. I was a solo traveler but we also had a girl scout troop with us. Both guides were able and ready to handle all age groups and levels of ability. The lunch provided was fantastic! Nice to get to swim in the river while lunch was prepared. Office staff were on the ball and could help what ever questions came up. Would love to go back and do a multiple day trip.

This was a spectacular trip and lived up to all and beyond any expectations we may have previously had. This was a bucket list trip for my wife and I, and without a doubt, the river and scenery were magical, but our river guides with their professionalism, knowledge, and enjoyable demeaner put this trip over the top! Big THANKS to Jen, Cory, Nick, Brandon, Tom, Tyler, and Bobbie. They worked diligently to make sure everyone was having a good time and I was personally impressed with their attention to all the little incidentals. They hardly stopped working the entire time while we relaxed and lounged in comfort. The meals were the best I’ve ever had in a wilderness setting. We enjoyed everyone we met on the trip and that was just another added bonus to an already pleasant experience. It was a vacation we will look back on with many fond memories. I would highly recommend MRO and their staff if you’re looking to have one of the most thoroughly enjoyable times of your life!

Amazing trip! We were on the 6 day/5 night Main Salmon rafting trip. Awesome white water, beautiful scenery, lots of interesting stops for along the way hikes & history, super gorgeous camp sites every night, and of course a really great group of river guides that made us amazing meals, took us down some awesome rapids, and were super fun to be around. The food is awesome and you really don’t lift a finger. Our group had some dietary restrictions and they were super accommodating. Jen was our lead, Brandon, Tom, Nick, Corey, Bobby, and Tyler are super knowledgeable, fun, and experts at what they do! This was my family’s second trip with MRO and it really felt like a vacation. Can’t write this without a shoutout to Aubrey at China Bar, too! That stop was a real treat with a shower and a real bed for night 3! Negatives: none. This trip was awesome. My husband said he could go a few more days and we were all sad to say goodbye. Tips: read the packing list! It’s super fun but of course you need to be prepared for backcountry and weather changes. A sarong to cover your legs (and dip in the water when it’s hot), long sleeved quick dry Sunshirts with hoods, and a hat are a must.

We were really excited to do this trip and to be honest, it was not worth the money. $200+ for a ticket just to sit in a boat looking at poles. I get fishing isn’t called catching but it wasn’t even about not catching anything.. The guide said very few words to us the whole time. He didn’t even give an introduction. We also only drove about a mile on the water. I was very disappointed and wouldn’t do it again.
