Review of West Glacier’s half-day rafting trip on the Middle Fork, with rapids, park views, gear details, guide tips, costs, and drawbacks.

“Water was too low for white water rafting, but wasn’t told by the company that we wouldn’t be doing this excursion. The trade off was the half day river float trip that was scheduled for the next day. Since we already had that excursion scheduled for tomorrow, we canceled it and will wait for the refund.”

“Noah’s Ark was recommended to us by a local friend and we couldn’t be more happy. From the time you walk onto their property, through the end of your trip, you are treated with some of the best customer service I have ever experienced. Our guide Seth was an amazing leader: clear, specific and respectful with all his instructions. Even when we got off a little on timing he always remained calm, showing the leadership skills one would want from a guide. Amazing day with an amazing staff pretty much sums it up!!”

She expertly managed our group of amateurs, making sure we were well-informed about the rafting process and even shared interesting facts about the river and the history of rafting in the Lower Yough. It was an unforgettable experience that I'd love to do again!!”
