Here are reviews from people who have taken our Snake River trips …
“I would strongly recommend the Lewis and Clark trip. We saw eagles, osprey, deer and some long horn sheep. The jet boat ride was incredible, and our instructor was very well informed about Lewis and Clark. She gave new meaning to what they went through. The whole expedition was amazing. The food on the American Empress was very good, and the entertainment enjoyable. We liked the idea that the entire trip was one price including tips and premium adventures.”
