Booked Eagle Rafting with Joe and even when i called, Joe was so high energy and kind. So when we showed up for our time i wasn't surprised of how nice he is. This was the first time my husband and I have done rafting so we did not know what to expect but the guides were so nice and caring. We felt completely safe as long as we followed the instructions they had given. We had so much fun and we can't wait to be back with our family. Also to note Eagle Rafting was one of the only places that would take min of 2 people out everyone else has min 4. They are totally accommodating, affordable and organized! Thanks again! -CJA read more

We thought it would be impossible to get a reservation during the holiday weekend, but thankfully we were able to book easily. Since only our kids were going on the activity, we were a little worried at first, but everything turned out great and they had such an amazing time creating unforgettable memories. When we arrived, Joe welcomed us warmly and explained everything in detail, which made us feel comfortable right away. Most importantly, the kids had a fun, safe, and unforgettable experience, and that made us so happy. Thank you so much, Joe and your team! read more

Joe and his staff were very professional and sweet! Chris was our guide,and he made me and my family of 3, feel really safe. We highly recommend this company! Will def rtn with them for another fun filled rafting day! Thank u, CátLy, Hải, Emmasteja read more

We took our 8 year old granddaughter and we did the Double Lickety Split and had a great time. It was fun for the whole family. We were very comfortable with our guide Christopher. He certainly knew his way around the river and was very entertaining and engaging particularly with granddaughter. Eagle Rafting does not have some of the glitz and glamor of some of the other companies, but Joe and his staff made us feel as if we were family. We would recommend Eagle Rafting for fun time on the river with your family. read more

Eagle rafting thank you for the wonderful experiences. My son wanted me to thank you for spending the extra time with him when the trip was over. When we come back we will be back for some more awesome white water action. Thanks again, Mark read more

The guys at Eagle Rafting were super fun, our guide Josh was friendly and kept everyone safe. Definitely recommend them. A little laid back, so be prepared read more

Guide (Dave) was amazing and made sure we all felt comfortable for our first time. Joe was amazing organizing everything. Directions were very clear, and we all felt very safe. This is family-owned, and every one of them all sooo nice. We had the most fun ever! I would definitely go back. read more

Amazing experience! First time rafting the Kern and it couldn't have been a more perfect day. Joe was our point of contact. Chris was our guide and he was phenomenal. Knowledgeable, patient, fun, and a really good instructor. I would recommend this company to anyone. Especially if you have kids or first time river rafters. Ask for Chris as your guide! We'll definitely be repeat customers! read more

Fun and rambunctious bunch! They made sure we had a blast while learning the proper rafting technique. Byron was an excellent captain and led us through difficult rapids like it was no problem. Would definitely recommend this spot read more

My husband and I went rafting today with Eagle Rafting in Kernville and I cannot recommend them highly enough! We are in our 70s and felt safe, as safe as one can feel in turbulent, rushing, white water. The fascinating quirky staff was knowledgeable, funny, and attentive! We had a Ball! read more

We had never been to Kernville and never been on the Kern river. My son has never been white water rafting. Last minute we called Joe and got set up. Chris was our guide. He was THE BEST. We did a small beginners trip and it was perfect. My son cannot wait to go rafting again, neither can I. Everyone at Eagle is great...they are such a community minded group as well. Highly recommended. read more

We recently went tubing with Eagle Rafting and it was the best experience! I was initially leaning toward using a different company but after speaking with Joe I chose Eagle and I am so happy that I did! Eagle Rafting provides guides with each group they send out, making safety a priority (something the other companies do not do). These guides also made our whole experience through the rapids a blast as they stayed playfully involved. Moreover, everyone on the Eagle team is so super nice. If you are a first time rafter/tuber/kayaker going through the rapids I highly recommend you give Eagle Rafting a try. I would give them an "11" if it were possible. read more

We had a great time on the lickety split. Our guide was very entertaining and the price was very reasonable. Will definitely go with this company again. read more

We called in same day, within 2 hours we were called back to do our rafting adventure. It was so much fun, Chris was amazing he kept us entertained and laughing the entire time. Sam who is learning was great, he's doing an amazing job already. Joe the owner amazing as well. There was a group of boys who are learning, they were friendly, and funny. If you want to go rafting Eagle rafting is the one to choose when in Kernville. Great, good energy people. We all loved our rafting adventure! Be prepared to be soaked! read more

We have gone out with Eagle Rafting every year for the last five years. We make a special family summer trip. The owner and all of the workers make everyone feel at home, welcome and it's always a blast!! read more

My partner and I called up to see if they could take 2 people, we were out on the water in less than 2 hours! Joe was so accommodating and welcoming. Our guide, Diego, was amazing and so fun. It was truly a great adventure and an amazing local rafting company :) read more

What an amazing time my 10yo son and I had with Joe and Eagle Rafting. No one else would take just two out but Joe would! He is a wonderful guy, friendly and professional. It was like we were rafting with a buddy. He engaged with my son and my son loved talking with him. We ran Lickety Split 3 times and my son would have kept on going if we could. Joe provided lasting memories that my son and I will remember for the rest of our lives. brake! read more

Chris and the driver and the guy who processed our payment were all awesome!! We had a great time! Definitely recommend and would love to come back!! They know what they're doing!! read more

Killer job!! We were so pleased with our outstanding trip down the Kern with Taylor and Joe with Eagle! They were very thorough with safety and made sure we had a safe time going down this effin cold water. Conjo! read more

Yeah dawg! My boyfriend and I had such a great experience with Eagle Rafting! Our guide Johnny B was hilarious! He had the best energy and made our day so fun. We did one run in a raft with a group and the next in a tandem inflatable kayak. I highly recommend doing 2 runs (at least) so you have a good amount of time on the river. If you're looking for a casual, down-home, and fun atmosphere then Eagle Rafting is the place! read more

They said they picked me up at 12 o'clock. It wasn't until well after 1 o'clock when they got here. When I tried to phone it was almost incomprehensible to hear them next time I'll probably go with another company. read more

We had an absolute blast with Eagle Rafting!!! Our guides Josh and Deigo were amazing and made the whole day fun!!! I have been on plenty of rafting trips and the full day upper Kern trip with Eagle Rafting exceed every other trip!!! It was just a fun time and lunch was amazing!!! Thanks again guys!!!! read more

Great bunch of guys. Before we left the guy played his stand up base. We boarded the alfresco bus and headed to the river. Fun guides . Bird their dog even joined us. Not a corporate feel just a few guys who like to have fun rafting read more

I am glad we picked Eagle rafting over other River Rafting companies. Their prices were reasonable and they were focused on customer service. They made sure we were safe, and that our runs were fun. My teenagers thought that the guides, Tyler and Dylan we're so chill. Even the bus rides were fun. The lunch was great. When I was calling around, most companies offered sandwiches for lunch. Eagle rafting served BBQ ribs, coleslaw, pasta salad, beans, oranges, and watermelon. At the end of our day, Joe, the owner even bought my family some ice cream for my birthday. We picked a full-day rafting trip with lunch. We went down the river twice in the morning then we had lunch. After lunsch, we went for another two runs. Eagle rafting gave us a choice of either being on the same boat during all the runs or using the inflatable kayak. It was even more fun to be on that on white water. read more

After Christoper ambushed us whilst buying wine. We booked a rafting trip. It was the most wonderful experience. Recommended if you are in Kernville. Great guide, felt safe at all times. We will be back. Purple!!! read more

These guys are awesome. Been on 2 trips now and they really know their stuff and treat you like a VIP. Joe is funny and responsive and we even jammed a bit in his living room with his instruments before we hit the river-- he treats his customers like family. Superb value and there's not a better way to spend the day than floating the river. read more

This was our first time whitewater rafting and we couldn't have enjoyed it more thanks to T-Dog and Joe! They really do make you feel like family and go above and beyond to ensure everyone is having a great experience. Yes, they are a casual and laid back company, but they're also inviting, knowledgeable, and focused on keeping us all safe and happy. We'll be back for sure! read more

Tried rafting for the first time this past Sunday, April 3, even though the water was low. Went down the lickity split with William as our guide and it was awesome. Joe (the owner) drove the bus/shuttle and was also great. Tons of fun and very safe. They had all of the safety gear for us to use, even for our 8 year old, and the rafts were in great shape. These guys really know what they are doing. This is not some big shot corporate enterprise, just some good ol' boys that know the river inside and out and know how to have fun. We will be back for sure. read more

If I could give these people 10 stars I would! Hands down the most awesome guides and tour company I had the pleasure of meeting. Joe was extremely accommodating. Our first rafting day was was with Tyler. He was very attentive and gave clear instructions....we even saved someone who'd fallen after the Ewing rapids, and not from our raft!!! If you go to Kernville this is the company to go with they treat you like FAMILY!!! And you cant beat that. read more

We had an amazing time kayaking with our guides Tyler and James. They were both great guides, we all felt like friends hanging out. Joe the owner was fun, had a jam session before heading out to the water. Highly recommend this place. read more

Joe and his Eagle Rafting company were very hospitable. There were 10 in our group. We were first greeted by Shelby, who had a great positive attitude and was very helpful. We did a half-day with two level 2-3 runs. The first run we had 5 on each raft, with a guide on the back of each raft - a good intro. Jared and Michael were fun guides. The second run we all chose to do IK's (inflatable kayaks), with a couple on each IK, and no guide! It was so much fun and a few in our group wiped out, with no injuries whatsoever, only laughs. We ended our trip with ribs and hot dogs cooked by Dane, which hit the spot and gave us energy to head back home. The cole slaw was delicious! There was also pasta salad, lemonade, and water. Though we did not get to meet Joe in person, he was very nice over the phone and was very quick with emailing or calling back. Joe let us camp near his company, which had a fire pit, portable toilets, plenty of shaded areas, a water spigot, and a table. It was a sweet secluded spot with plenty of space. Thank you Eagle Rafting! read more

Awesome staff! Lunch was great, and the rafting was incredible. Jared was super helpful and made the entire group feel super safe! Will return for sure! read more

We have been rafting the Kern for almost 4 years now and Eagle Rafting Company is by far and away the best company we have used. We did the full day trip and had more fun than any of our previous trips. Our guides were Ray and Nick and they were extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Our group asks a million questions about the river, water flow, rapids, etc. and they were not only knowledgeable, but were so nice. Our rafting experience was amazing. The owner of the company (Joe) couldn't be more kind and patient. He genuinely cares about all his customer's experiences. As an elite guide, he obviously knows how to train the guides working there. We won't be going back to any of the other rafting companies after this trip as it was by far and away the best! Thanks Eagle Rafting!! read more

Just finished a full day trip with Eagle Rafting. Water level was high and river was fast so we did 2 runs in the morning, had their BBQ lunch, then did 2 in the afternoon. We had Jim as our guide and the other reviewers comments about his knowledge and experience are spot on. I never felt like I was in any danger with him as our guide. Eagle Rafting did a great job keeping both me and my son safe. I thought I would mention as well, that there was another reviewer that recently mentioned the structure and organization and laid back nature of the business and I would agree 100%. You park along a green fence along the street, then cross over to the location that is operated out of a home with a big lot with all of the rafting equipment and gear all spread out. I prefer organization, structure and timeliness as well, but was able to overlook it as we planned to be there for the whole day and didn't have anything else planned. If you are that kind of person then you may not find that aspect appealing. Joe and his crew are extremely nice and really care about the experience that you have. IMO, we probably could have done 3 runs in the morning and 3 runs in the afternoon if we shortened some of the wait time. But it was a great experience nonetheless in the 4 rafting trips that we took. read more
