Glacier Raft Company Reviews

Great adventures, views and insights in the Glacier National Forest- must do!!

As a 1st time whitewater rafter My wife and I had an amazing experience going down the middle fork of the Flathead river. They have a great set up. The people are friendly, enthusiastic, and very safety conscience.

Had a great experience on our rafting adventure specially being in the smaller raft. Our tour guide and everyone else was very friendly and helpful.

So much fun. Great trip down the river. Super friendly people. A must do.

It was amazing, if your planning a trip I highly suggest you request Blake. Blake took great care of us from start to finish and went above and beyond what was expected.

Super fun morning with these guys. The staff was high energy, fun, and super helpful. Our guide Russell was the man. Made the rapids super fun and gave us tons advice on hikes, restaurants, etc for the rest of our trip. Justin was also hilarious on the bus ride over. Thanks for a great time!

Went on the scenic view with our guide Ian. He made it super fun. Definitely recommend him as your guide if you get the chance.

Great time, Lars was a great guide. Thanks for the fun!! Great value

Price and float time were great. I would rated this a five star raft trip but the water was very low, thus not any 3 rated rapids. It wasn t their fault just the time of year we booked. Our guide Kane was a five star with his knowledge of the river and area, along with his ability to connect with each person on the raft. Next time we will book during late June and early July for the best water.

Very nice for first timers and for kids. My 6 year old did his first white water rafting. Not too good for thrill seekers.

I went rafting with Glacier Raft Company in July and had an awesome experience. The trip was an amazing time and included very exciting rapids as well as just the right amount of breaks in the action to enjoy the scenic experience. The employees and Guides at Glacier Raft Company were great and proved very knowledgeable and capable. I will be going rafting with them again.

Great trip down the rapids with a great guide in Dusty! Safe and fun for our family of 8, old and young. Will look to do it again next trip to Montana.

Just got back. Emily was our experienced guide and we enjoyed our rafting adventure down the rapids because she made it fun and safe. We would do it again in a flash with her.

Amazing adventure that can't be adequately described!!!
Don't think twice. Book it.
This is a great company with a great crew. Zac was the best.
I will use them every trip to Glacier !!!

Amazing ride worth every nickel

Evan was amazing driver

I booked the fly fishing excursion for my husband's 40th birthday. It was like a fly fishing trip combined with a white water rafting trip all in one, it was a blast! Levi was seriously the best guide we have ever had. My husband netted over 20 fish! Not only was Levi knowledgeable and super personable but he also hooked us up with some amazing local eats that also did not disappoint! I really can't talk this guy up enough, he definitely made my husband's 40th birthday a day to remember.

I would give the office staff 5 stars because they accommodated our change in days for our trip due to illness. However, our guide Matt may not be everyone's cup of tea. He certainly wasn't ours. I believe we would've had a better experience had we been with a more patient and skilled guide.

We had a fantastic day with an easy day long float down the late summer river. We had just a few introductory type rapids that made our kids' day. The steak lunch was delicious and as a bonus, we spotted a black bear in the distance crossing the river. Our guide, Stephen, did a great job engaging with us and by the end of the day, we felt like we had made a boatload of new friends. Highly recommend this company and crew.

Every summer for about four or five years now, I have taken two rafting trips with Glacier Raft Company- usually both are half day whitewater rafting, the first in July and the second in August.

Glacier Raft Company always does an amazing job. Even when the water level is low (like during the drought of 2015, and again today), it's always a lot of fun. The guides always know how to mix safety with learning how to raft and sharing information about the Glacier area.

While I would hardly consider myself an experienced rafter/paddler, I go often enough that I can pick up on some of the things the guides do (like using their paddle as a rudder to help steer us in a specific direction) and I have nothing but high praise for the GRC guides.

Our guide today was Coley (sp?) and he did an amazing job. Not only was he great at explaining how to sit, how to paddle (and why), where to put your feet, and what to do if you fall in, he also shared his knowledge of the surrounding areas and historic events. And he was able to easily and smoothly move back and forth between conversations (ie, telling a story, and then smoothly transitioning into paddling instructions before returning to the story).

If you are considering booking a rafting trip, I highly recommend Glacier Raft Company!

Awesome trip with Elijah today! Being late on the season, it was fairly easy. But Elijah was an awesome guide and told us everything he knew about the park and recommendations for food!

Full day raft with guide Russell was awesome! We're locals and we'll definitely be doing this again

Henry was our guide. He did an excellent job. We loved it !!! Lots of fun !!

Seriously a MUST DO if you are in the area! Enjoyed every second of it and the view was breathtaking. Dillion the river villain was the BEST tour guide!!

Was a beautiful day to drift down the river and our host, Sam, was good and fun to visit with. Good job!!

My husband and I went on the scenic half-day float on 7/22/18 during our honeymoon in Glacier National Park. After hiking a bunch the days prior, we decided to have an easier-on-the-legs day with rafting. The scenic tour was perfect for this! Our guide Brandt was very knowledgeable and added a good amount of character and energy to the 2-2.5 hours we were rafting. The 'trust paddle' exercise we did was very fun at the Devil's Canyon portion of the river. We even saw a few bald eagles during the float! We are definitely looking at visiting Glacier again in the next few years, and will probably try the whitewater half-day the next time :)

Float trip or scenic trip what ever it's called was nice. Very relaxing. Our guide, Doc was great. Very informative with area and park information. Made things fun and kept up everyone's enthusiasm even a few who didn't seem thrilled to be there. Great for kids. Outfitter does whitewater rafting also. Equipment seemed well kept and clean. Prices were reasonable.

We had Emily P. as a guide as she was amazing! The sport raft was perfect for the group & the scenery was beautiful. Had a blast ripping through the rapids and having some fun playing in the water.

What a great experience. Alex, our guide, was awesome. If you come to Glacier, this is a must do!

We go on these raft trips every year for a work trip with glacier raft company. They are very accommodating and their raft guides are a blast to be out on the water with. They're very knowledgeable and safe. I look forward to seeing them again this summer.

Any day on the river is a good day. But 11-12 adults per raft makes for a misreable day. Unfortunately this company overloads their rafts...as locals, we've even gone back for a second chance. 3 in our party have rashes on our necks and chest from the dirty PFDS. The helmets are worry some as there is no sanitizing or cleaning, they were thrown in a wagon for the next group to put on very unsanitary practices, the rental booties, smelled of death, the say they sanitize after each use, we watched they don't, they're hung up for next person.. sad to say we will not be patronizing this company anymore.
Customer service, geez don't acts as your customers are a burden, the girls checking in and out, are rude, short, and act as your putting them out by asking a question.
The reason for 3 stars our guide, Jameson. He was great and tried hard to make it a good trip. Stop cramming us in these boats like cattle. IT'S NOT FUN!!

Kane was the best guide ever! We loved every minute. It was beautiful and exciting!!!

On Tuesday the 13th, at 1:30 pm, Brandon took us on the adventure of a lifetime. We fell in love with Glacier Park, but moreover, we fell in love with him. His eyes hid underneath his dark sunglasses and remained a mystery to us, yet it was no mystery that he would never take his dreamy gaze off of us. He guided us through the roughest of rapids, and lead us into the brightest of tomorrows. If ever we fell, into the murky depths below, we would not for a moment doubt, that he would pull us up, towards the heavenly light that is his smile. While we are no longer on that raft, Brandon taught us, to always live with a paddle. <3

In all seriousness, we had an absolute blast with our guide Brandon and the Glacier Raft Company. He knew a lot about the river itself, some of its history and gave us very clear direction while making it a beautiful and fun experience!

Outstanding trip with GRC. Our guide Zach was the secret sauce. Fun but safe, and he had terrific knowledge of the area. Thanks, Zach for a wonderful day! Will definitely recommend rafting trip to friends and request you as a guide. Job well done!!!

Amazing fun for the whole family Will/Frank was an amazing guide.

Our guide Kirby was fantastic. Enjoyable, knowledgeable, and safety conscious. Made it a great experience.

Service was good but the rafting was not so thrilling.

Behind New River Gorge in WV, this was one of my favorite rafting experiences. Our guide was great and the death of the guides made for a great day of floating and enjoying an amazing place.

Kelsey was the best river guide! We loved her skills on the river as well as her insight into the history of the river! Team Kelsey!!

We had a BLAST. Very professional and fun guide. We had a couple of people who were a little nervous about rafting but our guide made them feel so comfortable. One member of our party got to check off a box on her bucket list.

Pleasant rafting but rapids were pretty tame at the time we went (early July). Staff was pleasant but overly excited about not too much. Lots of arbitrary forced applause and high fives.

Best tour guides, packed full of information, great rafting, fun, exciting and even let us take a dip. Dinner was awesome. Great chef. Store for shopping, rentals, decent prices. Fun bus ride to Rapids. A must!

What a blast. 8 miles down the Flathead river. Rapids were ok-probably better early spring. But still well worth the money and lots of fun with groups of family and friends!

Great place, fun helpful staff. Our guide Alex was terrific. Good sense of humor and knowledgeable!

Did the scenic float trip to accommodate a member of our group who dislikes whitewater. Finished thinking that it was a better trip because there is so much to see, and floating provides the opportunity. Highly recommend both the trip and Glacier Raft, which is professional and efficient with great guides. Ours was Sam from Charleston.

The guide on our trip Andrew was great! He was very friendly, knowledgeable about the area and helped us with any questions we had. I would definitely recommend them to anyone.

Stayed in one of their cabins, but didn't use their services. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Cabin said it slept 10 and had 4 double beds, two single couch-beds, and still had two more roll out single beds. Nice kitchen, but only really fits 6, so this place would be tight to really stay inside in for a large group. Great if you're just starting there to sleep and do snacks and such. Didn't explore the property, but looked nice.

Third time visiting with this company and they've given the best experience on the water every time.

This was my first time rafting. It was a awesome experience!!!! Due to the area not getting rain there were really no rapids. Our guide, Justine was amazing. He made it exciting for everyone. He was very energetic, fun, and very knowledgeable about the area. He gave us lots of information on rafting and all the safety instructions needed to go down the river safely. He was very good with the kids and even allowed them to jump in for a swim. I would definitely go again.

Brant was awesome! He is the guide, that will make your trip a memorable one. Very knowledgeable and safety was a great concern. One could call him the Han-Solo of rafting.

It was a very fun tour, and professionally done. There were a good amount of rapids for us and our kids (preteen). Our guide Kendra was very good as well!

The rafting is excellent! DYLAN was our guide he was awesome!!

Wonderful! The scenic float was a great first time. Will be back to do the real thing!

Very well organized and fun trip! Highly recommend!

Very professional outfitter, outgoing friendly staff, great location, gorgeous river and an excellent guide ( Eric F. ) all helped to make for a memorable experience ... Thank you !!

We had a fantastic time rafting. We choose the afternoon trip AND dinner. The meal was delicious. Appetizer, drinks, 8-10 ounce filet - cooked just the way we like, baked potato with all the toppings and a tasty salad. After dinner they served a yummy brownie with caramel. We are definitely coming back & will do the dinner. Fresh cooked meal after a few hours of rafting was the perfect finish to the day. Thank you Tyler, our guide. Great personality, knowledgeable & experienced!

So fun! Not to intense in late July. But still nice rapids! You will paddle. This is not just a leisure ride in a raft!

Our second trip with GRC and had a blast! Great guides and very organized! We'll be back!

This was one of the best trips we have ever done
I would suggest doing this to everyone no matter what age
Erick was a great guide and was very knowledgeable of the river and the area along with making sure everyone in the raft knew they were in good hands
The lunch that was served was five star as well as the trip
We are planning our next raft trip for next year with Glacier raft company

Although we went on the whitewater rafting trip too late in the season to be really challenging, Justin, our guide, made it fun! He was very skilled and personable.

Awesome day on the river! Even though it was not high season, the sites, experience and crew were wonderful. Kirby was our guide and she was fabulous!! What a great way to spend the day! Thank you Glacier Raft! Highly recommend! The Jones family!!

Great ending to our trip to Montana. Guide(AP) did a great job. Will definitely go again when I come back to the area.

Half-day middle fork trip was gorgeous. Nate was a very informative and professional guide. Would recommend to anyone!

Just had a wonderful and delightful half day white water rafting excursion with Josh! Very knowledgeable and entertaining! Views were to die for and rapids were so much fun. Great, great group of people to take a rafting trip with while visiting the glaciers! Can't wait to do it again!

My wife and I did the inflatable Kayak. It was really fun! I dumped it in a tough spot, but was efficiently rescued! I think I would have done better if I had been down the river on the raft first, but still really a great trip!

We had an amazing time, even though we got rained on!! All the staff was super friendly and personable. We had the best guide. Henry was knowledgeable, and beyond nice. I never felt unsafe, and he prepped us well for each set of rapids. Henry was a great coach, tour guide and navigator. I would highly recommend Glaicer Raft Company for all levels of experience.

We had a really great time on the full-day trip. There is beautiful scenery in the first half and some pretty fun rapids on the second half. Doc was super a interesting and engaging guy, and he made the trip much more memorable.

Our first time white water rafting and Kelsey on our 11am tour July 2nd was an exceptional guide!!
We are looking forward to next year's visit!!!

Emma was a great guide and very skilled at her job. Would definitely do it again!

3.5 hours of rafting down the Middle Fork river was amazing. Our guide Steve got us through the trip safely while keeping us entertained. Definitely reccomend!! Thanks again Steve

Really fun. Safe for the whole family. Our younger kids were a little nervous, but it was perfect. The rapids are not insane but give you a fun ride.Our guide was great. They actually have some of the coolest shirts at their store too.

Had a great time with "Doc" our river guide. He took our 10 person group (6 kids ages 7-15) down the river. He was entertaining, informative, and made the kids laugh along the way. Definitely created a great experience for our families. Thanks Doc!

Enjoyed a fabulous full day of rafting with our guide Doc! Doc told us the best stories and history of the river ever! Food was great, cooked right there on the river bank! Highly recommend this company!!

We had a WONDERFUL 3 hour float! It was beautiful and relaxing. Our guide Russell was amazing!! He was fun and extremely knowledgeable about the river and the entire area. I definitely want to go back to do a white water rafting trip next!

Staff was great! Rapids were mellow though did have maybe 2 Cat 3 level

Easily the best raft company around West Glacier. They have the best location and the best amenities. Very friendly. I have gone rafting with them for 5 years and have no complaints.

We did the full day fly fishing. We had two boats, I was alone with my guide DJ. I've done a guided tour in PA previously. The scenery and water were so beautiful, the fish were biting and it was a sunny day. They bring a gourmet lunch as we ate along the Flathead River. Most importantly, is their expertise in flyfishing. DJ was so helpful in watching the water and kindly giving me tips. The day flew by as I caught 6 fish. It was like fishing with family, a day I'll always treasure. Can't wait to go back.
