1. The Breathtaking Scenery

Make sure your camera is fully charged before you arrive. Because the landscape here is one of the most picturesque areas across the entire nation! As you carve your way through the jagged landscape, mountains tower over each side of you. And the smell of the fresh country air only adds to the excitement on board. As you go around a new bend in the river, a more fascinating collection of rock formations appear. And when you think nature can’t get any more beautiful, the boat turns again. To reveal a larger or steeper mountain, standing in your way.

2. The Seasonal Weather

If you don’t prepare for the weather, your day trip will feel like a long couple of weeks. In the summer months, the day temperatures can reach up to 95 Degrees Fahrenheit. So it’s important to pack sun cream, a baseball cap, and sunglasses. In the winter, every boat comes with heaters to keep you warm. But you should wear as many waterproof clothes as possible. Otherwise, your relaxing cruise down the river might turn into a cold and wet one.

3. The Local Wildlife

There are over 400 different animal species in the Yellowstone region. And many of these live along the Snake River. Unfortunately, there are endangered species here. So, we do our best to watch them from afar and not disturb their ways of life. While you’re here, you can test out your photography skills. But birdwatchers will be most impressed. There are over 250 bird species around the Snake River. Some of the most common are the Bald Eagle, Barrows Goldeneye, and Yellow-Billed Cuckoo.

4. There’s So Much to Explore

The Hells Canyon Dam Tours and The Scenic River Tour both last around 6 hours. But every minute is action-packed, and when it’s over, you’ll be wondering where all the time went! But there is so much more to discover in the area. If you’re lucky enough to explore this picture-perfect part of the world, make the most of it, and stay longer. Check out lodging nearby and turn your day trip into a weekend getaway!

5. Our Food

Last but not least is our food. It is a significant part of any trip, and this one is no different. What’s better than cooking a BBQ? Have one cooked for you while you sit back with a drink admiring the nature surrounding you! And that’s exactly what we’ll do for you. We can cater to all diets, but please let us know in advance.
