We had a great family group join 2 of us. Aiden was our river guide and was friendly, fun, and instructive He ensured we all had a blast - and only tricked a couple of gullible ones into thinking there was a hot spring to check out with a short swim. Well done!

Aden, our guide, had a great sense of humor. He kept is all engaged in conversation with each other. By the end of the trip I didn't feel like I was with strangers. I shall do this again next year.

Highlight of our trip to Idaho. Ryan as a guide crushed it. He tailored the trip and our route to maximize fun and excitement. If you’re on the fence about going, DO IT. You won’t regret it.

We loved it all! The rapids, the site seeing, the floating, the knowledgeable guide. Perfect day for my daughter’s first experience river rafting.

Just go with Orange Torpedo! Our experience August 2022 was really disappointing. Did they safely get us down the river? Yes, but let's start with the cold welcome from the front desk and then the guides and the very smelly (body odor) van ride to the river. We were told to leave everything in our cars which we did but once fitted for life jackets we had a few things to put in the dry bags. The guide seemed pretty annoyed even though the web sites states that dry bags are available. It was the first time taking our kids and we were excited for them but we quickly figured it wouldn't be great because after the first rapid of paddling they were thirsty and we turned to our guide and asked for water and there was nothing for us. Even though the web site specifically states that there will be snacks and drinks? I left my water bottle in my car. So now we are on a 2 hour ride in the hot sun with nothing to drink. I was very confused because that is one of the questions you have to answer when you fill out the safety form and register for the trip? It lists water or coke products. As we continue to float down the river our guide was very impersonal and didn't even tell us about fun things we could do until too late ie float certain rapids in our life jackets or stop at certain spots(snack/drink break like the website states.) We passed a few Orange Torpedo boats and they seemed like they were have a blast. We made it to the boat ramp and realized we lost a pair of Patagonia shorts($50) somewhere down the river. They should have been in the dry bag but like a stated before that was a touchy issue. Another smelly ride back to the shop where there are no pictures of our adventure? Pretty sure the website says something about that as well. It was a disappointing experience. We called later that week to talk with someone about the miss communication about the drink issue and of course they said they would get back to us but they didn't.

Prompt and punctual, good equipment, fantastic guides, and some very fun class 2 / class 3 rapids. You depart from the river walking distance from the shop location so dress appropriately. A bottle of water strongly recommended.

We had Nick as a River guide, best guide ever! There were 8 of us and we were all on a cousins trip, he might as well be a part of the family now! Super knowledgeable about the River and rapids, rocks within and the different currents. He even explained some for us to know. Absolutely coming back here and having him as a guide!

This is the best and most experienced of the eight rafting companies in Riggins, Idaho - the “White Water Capital of Idaho.” Solid, safe, professional operation. We had an awesome time! Great people to work with in getting our group of six onto the river. They do not disappoint.

We did the half-day morning trip so that we could drive the Lolo Pass in the afternoon. It was a great trip! I was a little concerned as I was traveling with my adult daughter Elizabeth who tends to panic or freeze up in dangerous situations. She ended up sitting on the floor of the raft holding on but could see the excitement over the side of the raft. I also chose an oar raft for more stability. Kelly was our guide and she couldn’t have been sweeter or more attentive to Lizzy, before, during, and after the trip. I highly recommend Mountain River Outfitters!

First timer here and had a complete blast! Tessa was an amazing guide and we couldn't have had a better time! I highly recommend taking the trip and experiencing it for yourself.

3 to 4 hours before trip was to begin the company called and cancelled our trip saying they had no guides available even though booked over a month earlier.

Our group of 7 included 2 children ages 9 & 12. We did the half day trip which was more than enough for us! Our guide Emma was excellent. The safety briefing was thorough. She also knew the history of the area and knowledge of the river, kept us entertained the whole trip. It was exciting and yes, we got WET!!! A fun trip!

We had a great time on the river. Jeff was our guide and was great. He had a wealth of knowledge about the area and had been rafting on the river for 15 yrs. We had some fun rapids to go through but no one felt fearful, just exilarated. We highly recommend this company.

This group is amazing! If you are rafting in Riggins this is the place to go! Our guide Jenna was nothing short of perfect. Knowledgeable, friendly, fun, and the best guide on the water! The employees in the shop were friendly and the manager Lisa saved us! I am one of those people who messed up the time zone and missed the boat! She rescheduled us right away and was so kind and gracious instead of making me feel like a dumbest. MRO is the best!!

Had a great time on a half day whitewater trip. Emma was our river guide - she is young but competent and apparently grew up on the river. We went through a couple of class three rapids but felt safe and under control at all times. A very good adventure for all ages and families. A lot of fun and you will get wet!
