Alaska Guided River Rafting Trips
Our guided river rafting and float trips are the adventures of a lifetime that your whole family will enjoy. From the upper Kenai river at Cooper landing, we voyage through the wilderness and get an in-depth look at the history of the area, the scenery and the Alaskan wildlife. Our trips even venture into the National Wildlife Refuge where we often spot bear and moose. You’ll also get to see the world famous combat fishing area where thousands of fishermen fish among millions of salmon each year.

Experience first-hand the challenges miners throughout Alaska’s history endured, prospecting and mining in the backcountry. Leave behind the complexity and noise of today in exchange for the untamed wild! The only way in and out to your mining adventure is via a scenic raft trip on the Kenai River, and an approximate ½ mile “bushwhacking” hike to Prospector John’s Bear Den Claim. Upon arrival at the mining location, your experienced guide will teach you the basics of prospecting and mining and introduce you to the tools of the trade. Then your quest for gold begins! Enjoy an authentic experience and go home with incredible stories and newfound knowledge. The gold you find is the reward for your efforts – that along with great memories, stories, and laughs.
