Ashton, our guide, was great. She shared little anecdotes about the area, asked small talk questions about us (where we're from, grades the kids are in, sports they play, etc.), and just made the float a great experience. (She's got a great energy!) Since most of our party of 5 cannot swim, we chose the scenic experience instead of white water. There was one tiny section that was a "sampler" of the white water experience. It wasn't wild by any means, but that was enough to get the kids excited about the prospect of doing a white water experience in the future.

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.

It was challenging and exciting but not unsafe for our beginner experience levels. Taylor kept an excellent watch over our ability and knowledge to be sure we could handle each rapid well before it arrived. Her guidance made it a fun and beautiful day. We spent over an hour in the car getting to the launch site and back and enjoyed every minute because Taylor is a fascinating person and a great conversationalist. One of our kayaks got loose and went downstream and Taylor exerted a tremendous amount of extra effort to get things back together. She was a good sport about it even though it created a lot of extra work for her. I've also rented inflatable kayaks from Rendezvous and they do a great job. I came with zero knowledge of kayaks or local conditions and they got me the right equipment and made sure I knew just where to go. Rendezvous is very fair about pricing. We discovered that we needed a guided trip instead of a rental and they credited the full amount of the rental toward the guided trip

Unfortunately, REI pulled their outdoor adventures, but Rendezvous picked up where they left off and made improvements. Our guides were friendly, knowledgeable, and created a fun and safe environment. Luke and Taylor were a fantastic team. We had a great time. The adding of the white water kayaking on the last day was a huge upgrade. Taylor's knowledge of each rapid allowed me to take them on with confidence. We did miss have Luke on this portion of the trip, however we understand he had to take care of the "clean up" for the equipment on the trip. We can't say enough about this trip and the unforgettable memories we made. I would highly recommend this trip.

For $600-850 a snow mobile, this outfit is greatly missing customer etiquette. We were told to be ready at 6am sharp. We wanted to confirm which side of the hotel pickup was, however neither the 1800 or 307 numbers work. We called repeatedly, text the 307 number, and had no idea if we'd been scammed until the coach showed up at 6:28. Showing up late with no working phone number was shocking for an outfit that demands logistics and communication at 6am. Once the coach showed up, I asked Jeff (guide) if there's any coffee since it's a 1+ hour ride to Yellowstone and coffee shops were not open. Scenic Safari's response? "You can die for an hour in the back." A bit rude, I ignored it. For comparison, the hotel shuttle that runs FOR FREEE has coffee and hot chocolate prepped in the van. No coffee on a $600-800 per person is one thing, but "You can die for an hour in the back," has ZERO customer etiquette. We get in the coach and the man has the lights on full blast over our heads. When asked to dim them since it's pitch black outside and the contrast painful to anyone with migraines, Jeff makes the remark "lights are going off because there's someone sensitive in the back." Zero basic customer etiquette. Just turn the light off. Everyone heard the request. Three strikes before the fist 30 minutes of the trip with 8 hours to go.
