Best Rafting Trips for Families
River Drifters started rafting with families in 1979 and your family will be treated with the same personal touch that founded this company! There is not a better summertime activity that you and your family could enjoy more than a river trip! Our office receives several ‘thank you letters’ each week from happy guests that took their families rafting. Many people say that the rafting portion of their vacation or family reunion was a true ‘highlight’ of their trip! Nothing creates bonds and enhances friendships like an outdoor adventure!
