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.
