The scenery is incredible, the rafting is exciting - particularly this year with high water, and guides are fantastic. My only reservation in sharing this review is that more folks will go to the Salt where the solitude of the canyons and the beauty of the
desert is so appealing. read less

We always use Wilderness Aware and brought new friends with us this time. One person had some issues with balance and they were able to work with him and put him in the middle. The waters were flowing great. Our staff person was amazing! Making the reservations and getting ready couldn’t be any easier. We can’t wait to go again. Next time will be a full day adventure! read less

Decided to go white water rafting on the Salt River with Wilderness Aware. Highlight of the trip! Scenery and rafting were spectacular! Our guide, Justin, was very skilled and knowledgeable of the area. He shared entertaining, historical stories of the local people and sites during our 10 mile trip down the river. Plenty of fun rapids! Could only take photos when water was calm. read less

Yes it was. Did I feel safe with my crew? Yes I did. With a snug life jacket you are about as likely to drown as a cork is to sink. My crew was fun and there were many laughs. Our guide was well educated and informative. The fajita lunch was great and enough to keep me full all day. I’ll definitely be doing this again next year! read less

We all felt safe the whole time & couldn’t stop laughing. The crew was relatable and extremely knowledgeable about the surrounding area. They told us a lot of fun facts 🙂 would recommend this company/ crew to anyone. THE FOOD WAS SO YUMMY TOO! We also had a large group, the transportation they provided us was reliable and timely. They were extremely professional but knew how to have a great time! read less

It ran 4400 cfs this March, well above average, and our guide and the entire team of craft were squared away. No river spills! read less

Ben was a very cool and skilled guide with great stories about the river and the canyon as well as his own adventures during high waters. The upper salt river has breathtaking views and it is a reminder of the diverse beauty that is AZ. At lunch we had the bonus of a visit from a momma bear who was fortunately on the other side of the river from us. She lingered and then lumbered up the hill and back to her cubs. Awesome. We will do it again when we have another year of good snows like we did this year. Next time, we will skip the stop for lunch and take the fast track. read less
