Relaxing Float trip - Glacier Raft Company was great! Very organized, friendly and has many options. Wiley was our guide for the raft trip. He was great! We enjoyed the float so that we could spend time looking at the scenery and actually saw a bald eagle flying over head. I don't think we would have noticed the eagle if we had done the rapid rafting trip.

Best Family Float Trip - Had a great time with family on this very scenic raft trip down the Flathead River which was about 7 miles long. Bridget was our guide and took time to explain the river and its history. We would recommend Glacier Raft Co. For your float trip needs and any of their guides! Dave & Jodi from Alaska.

Once in a lifetime memory! - There was no better way to end our Glacier National Park vacation than to spend two hours floating down the Flathead River with Glacier Raft Company. The scenery was beautiful. We had a great guide, Nick. He was warm and welcoming. He skillfully maneuvered the raft along the river making everyone feel safe and comfortable. The experience was awesome. It is a great lifetime memory for my son and I! This is an experience that everyone should have if you are going to Glacier National Park.
