All rates are subject to Federal, State and Local river access fees of 5%. These fees will be added to your invoice.

*Rivers are classified as I to VI; I is flat water; III is beginning whitewater; VI is unrunnable.
**Only certain dates are available on some trips, so call us to check availability.
***Check with us if your group is larger than indicated on this trip calendar.


AVAILABILITY: The rafting season in California ranges from mid-April to June or July for the free-flowing rivers (depending on the level of snow pack), and through September for the dam controlled rivers. Some rivers are available daily, while others are very highly controlled and have specific dates for trips. Please consult the Trip Calendar for the river that interests you to check its rafting season. Availability on any specific date also varies, according to the river and previous bookings.
