This past Monday July 7 at 2:28, my husband and I were on the main highway. We stopped along the…read moreroad with several other cars as the tour from your ranch were crossing. One of the guides was struggling with the horse he was on. It was doing circles while he was on the highway waiting for others to cross. Once everyone had crossed and he was on the dirt, he proceeded to hit his horse several times in the neck, which appeared to be with a lot of force. We were appalled and this type of abuse to this horse should never happen. I suggest you terminate this employee or take any necessary action. What we witnessed was awful and I hope this isn't typical of the way your Ranch treats these beautiful animals.

We actually didn't even plan to go to Grand Teton on our vacation. We only planned to do Yellowstone and Glacier. But when my uncle saw that we were here, he started texting us all about GTNP and the scenic float ride they took. He hyped it up so much, that we turned our second day in Yellowstone into a Grand Teton Day! I called Barker Ewing the day before and they luckily had availability (just an FYI that we went in August during the pandemic, so I doubt they'd be able to squeeze us in if it were a normal year). They emailed me very detailed instructions on where to go, where to park, etc. We ended up finding the location with no issues! Soon after, our River Guide, Peter, showed up to take us on this magical journey! Luckily for us, it was just our party of three and one party of two (due to COVID restrictions). Peter told us normally they pack the boats with 12 or so people. So we were incredibly spoiled. We each got one side of the raft to ourselves- which was awesome! We were able to sit on the edge for an adventurous feeling; or we could sit down and sprawl out for a more relaxed vibe. The entire raft ride took about 2.5 hours. It was a scenic raft ride and not a white water raft ride, so it was all so peaceful. It's a ten mile ride up the Snake River. Peter did all of the rowing as he guided us through. We have never met anyone as knowledgeable and inspirational as Peter! He absolutely loves the outdoors. Said he knew since he was 8 or 9 that he wanted to move to Grand Teton and become a River Guide. Talk about following your dreams! He lives on the property in a tepee (so cool!). And he's seen all wildlife imaginable (except for a wolverine, but he can still tell you all about them!). I've never met someone so incredibly passionate about what they do. I work in HR so when I see a human being so perfectly matched to their profession, I get almost giddy about it. Never was there a better river guide than Peter! I loved so much how he was answering all of our questions with zeal. You can tell he lives for this! He is one of those rare people who make you stop and think "Am I living life to the fullest?" Needless to say, I am still trying to find my "inner Peter." My sister, brother-in-law and I talked about him for the rest of the trip! We did end up seeing some bald eagles during our ride which was really cool! Peter knew all about them of course, and even had a name for one of the younger ones ("Junior"). We were hoping to see Moose (it's called Moose, WY after all!) but didn't get a sighting. The views are absolutely stunning with the Tetons in the background. The water flowing right underneath and all around you makes for such a serene experience. There was a time where I was so at peace, that I almost dozed off. But I told myself "I cannot fall asleep when these are my views!" This has to be the closest I've ever felt to have a heavenly peace. All told, we all agreed that this was our favorite thing on our trip. For me, it is a highlight of all vacations I've ever taken! I cannot say enough good things about this experience and if you are in Grand Teton, you HAVE to make this a priority! I'm so glad my uncle hyped it up to us. He didn't oversell it at all-- if anything, it was better than we imagined! Thank you, Peter, for this unforgettable and inspiring experience! We hope to be back to see you again one day!

I can't recommend this company enough if you want to try something different than the usual Teton related, not as active tourist activities.

He was informative and the boat held some great discussions throughout the trip, which makes it more enjoyable. I was imagining more rapids, but there was a lot more slow parts of the river. The big Kahuna was the one rapid that managed to get everyone except our guide wet. They were taking pictures there which you can purchase online or go to their shop and buy them for 20% off. We even thread the needle towards the end between a couple large rocks. It's worth doing a small 8 person boat. I'd even go in May or June to get more rapids because going at the beginning of August the water flow slows way down losing some of the rapids. They do offer water jackets you can put on under the life vest when you get there. The water was cool but not cold enough to need a wetsuit in August unless you can't handle cool temps. They do offer all that when you Check-in to rent too. If you have young kid, 4th grade or older they let them sit at the head of the boat. They have to be strong enough to hold on going over the rapids.
