Rich and Becky run exceptional Hells Canyon jet boat tours that consistently wow families and groups of all ages. Rich grew up on the Snake River, and his personal family history dating back generations adds authentic depth to the narration. He's a skilled captain who expertly navigates the rapids while sharing stories about the canyon's geology, wildlife, and historic sites. Becky handles logistics seamlessly, often driving the shuttle service and ensuring everyone feels comfortable throughout the day. The tours include well-planned stops at historic landmarks like Polly Bemis Ranch and opportunities to spot bighorn sheep and bald eagles. Lunch exceeds expectations with homemade touches, and getting wet through the rapids is part of the fun on hot days. The experience works beautifully for multi-generational groups, from infants to seniors in their late 70s. Be prepared for rocky, uneven terrain at stops requiring moderate mobility. The scenery is jaw-dropping, the staff radiates genuine hospitality, and the overall experience creates lasting memories that have people already planning return trips.
All I can say is “WOW!” This was an awesome day on the Snake River in Hell’s Canyon! The staff from registration to shuttling to captaining the boat was top notch. The seats in the boat were comfortable. I felt safe and looked after. They were always offering water or soda throughout the trip. The lunch they provided was very tasty and generous portions. The scenery was spectacular throughout. We saw eagles, ducks, big horn sheep, deer and a black bear. Rich, our captain, was very generous with time when wildlife was spotted and made sure we all had a chance to see if the water depth and activity allowed. We went o 9/5/2026 and while the weather started out coo in the morning, the sun was warm. The day heated up. One word summary: PERFECT!
