There are not enough words to describe how fun and exciting this trip was. The staff at Canyon Outfitters takes such amazing care of you and are so kind and generous. Just go. This trip needs to be experienced.
Simply the time of my life. George, Lynette, Art, Kevin and Eric - thank you for an awesome trip! Everything was simply top notch. Starting with the welcome dinner at George & Lynette's home I knew it was going to be an amazing week. The people, the food and the overall level of comfort throughout frankly surprised me. If relaxing with your favorite cocktails & snacks, BS'ing with friends & knowledgeable/hilarious guides, and lazily floating down a beautiful river through a majestic canyon and catching DOZENS AND DOZENS of fish for hours on end sounds good to you...this trip is for you! All that is followed by relaxing evenings, with multi-course unbelievable dinners (and desserts), more cocktails, cards, campfire and a comfortable bed (that is already setup for you when you arrive at camp). We will most definitely be back.
I have been on the Snake River trip 5 times with Canyon Outfitters and it is always the highlight of my year. This year we had 15 in our group and each of us were made to feel special by George, Lynette, Craig, and each of the Guides. If you don't mind being treated like a King or Queen take a trip to Halfway Oregon.
This was my first trip with Canyon Outfitters and they made it a experience I will never forget, they went over the top to make our trip fantastic, I felt like part of a family rather than someone they had never met before, they pointed out birds and animals I had never seen before and the food was out of this world, Great food Great experience but most of all Great people, thank you so much, hope to see you again the sooner the better, Respect Brian , [ the English convert ]
WOW … What an AMAZING experience!!! Not only did I travel all the way from West Australia for this float trip, but I was fortunate enough to take my Mum of 73 years young along with me! It was a fabulous adventure filled with 5 star food, incredible sights, relaxing massages, and an abundance of fun! All the staff at Canyon Outfitters are FABULOUS! They kept us safe, full, happy, entertained, and relaxed the whole time. They are extremely professional, kind, and couldn't do enough for you. I highly recommend Canyon Outfitters and look forward to joining them on the river again one day! Thank you for an unforgettable experience!
I went on this trip to have a few days of R&R (being the mom of 2 toddlers!). Little did I know how much I NEEDED this trip. Lynette and George have thought through every detail of this trip and it shows. Their hospitality, knowledge, culture of safety, energy, and attention to detail really shine through in their hard work. The food was top notch and the massages were out of this world. I can't recommend this trip enough and I'm putting down my deposit for next year.
I really can't say enough about our trip with George and Lynette! They really do think of everything and even accommodate special needs without missing a beat. The guides, massage therapists and the entire staff were kind and knowledgeable. We had so much fun- would definitely go again some day.
George Hauptman and the crew at Canyon Outfitters offer a first-class experience rafting the Snake River. They do all the work so when you arrive in camp, your gear is unpacked, tent/cots are set up and they have drinks and appetizers waiting for you. The meals are FABULOUS and filling, and watching the one of guys flip the giant flapjacks at breakfast was a special treat. The guides are knowledgeable and friendly, sharing interesting trivia about the area and the river along the way. After doing a number of trips with them, I can't say enough good things about them. Highly recommended.
The best people and trip money could buy. You will go away feeling the employees of CanyonOutfitters are like family members. I have done the trip twice and would like to do it every year.I will say it again it's not only the people you are with it's the employees that really make it a veryspecial trip.LB
George and Lynette's, Canyon Outfitters, is a very high quality rafting company! I was so impressed with the people they have hired, the attention to detail, and the wonderful food. This was an amazing way to vacation. A camping/rafting trip like no other. They took care of everything and we were free to just enjoy. I highly recommend them to everyone!
