Seriously cannot say enough good things about this place. The rafting was so much fun, our guide John Hall is what really made the experience top notch. Incredible control of the raft, super fun dude, made us feel really safe while also giving us a crazy wild ride. 10000% will be rafting again with him.

We did the white water rafting 9-26-2026 and it was amazing. While most of us were terrified we had a guide that took care of us. Highly recommend doing this. Ask for Caveman for your guide he took very good care of us and is very knowledgeable. This was experience we will never forget.

Fun day on the Rogue River
Fun day on the river with guide Gus. It was just my husband and me so it was pretty much a private trip. Beautiful scenery, both float and enough rapids to keep it interesting. Gus was great, very knowledgeable about the Rogue valley, the river itself, etc. A great experience, glad we booked it before they ended their season.

Well organized adventure, a must if you are visiting Jackson area. Our guide Shug was so much fun and amazing as she guided our raft down the river and through the rapids. She created a fun atmosphere of teamwork on our raft as we didn't know everyone.

Excellent Rafting Experience
The Defiance Rafting Company was an excellent company to raft with for our 1/2 day trip. The staff was friendly, efficient, and thorough with their safety instructions. Great job fitting everyone with splash outfits, helmets, and life vests. Our raft guide, Jake, was personable, happy to answer our group questions, and share his knowledge about the environment and wildlife. Greatly enjoyed our trip and would highly recommend! Only company we found still doing rafting trips in mid September.

Fun on the snake river
This trip is a must managed superbly well from initial booking , welcoming staff in the store , informative driver and outstanding river guide Will. We were his last trip of a season of over 300 rides but his enthusiasm and interaction to ensure a fun trip for all was infectious. We had a great crew of strangers who became friends on the river. The scenery is stunning and the rapids come regularly to navigate. You will get wet but that’s why you’re there. Book it now and enjoy

We had "Uno" and he was so professional an welcoming; it wouldn't have been the same without him! Additionally, the trip was a blast; we loved the fun names for each rapid and the fun facts that were given. 10/10 experience

Great experience
Excellent fun. “Big Mac” was a great guide, and also full of tips about whole area. We were there when water levels were very low (in Fall and area in drought) so there were some minor rapids but mostly a “lazy river ride” for most part. Canyon scenery is spectacular.
