Rivers and Oceans was an awesome company to book with!

August 29, 2022

They handled all of the reservations, called to make sure that I had all my questions answered before and after the booking, and sent emails to keep me updated and educated on what the trip would entail. I highly recommend Rivers and Oceans. In addition, the trip will go down as my favorite vacation. The scenery was second to none. There were so many activities to engage in! My adult children and I loved it!

Well done !!!!!!!

June 4, 2022

Rivers and Oceans not only booked our rafting trip but continuously updated us and sent us supporting info leading up to our trip. Very rarely in our travels have we been so pleased with the true customer service from Rivers and Oceans. We have only been home 2 days and from our bragging on the care of R & O several family and friends have already booked trips for next year. Fabulous experience!

Perfect trip

September 20, 2021

Our trip was 3 days and 2 nights. We flew into the bar 10 ranch and were greeted with an incredible staff well organized and a wonderful experience. I loved the skeet shooting. We helicoptered down to the river the next morning fabulous experience. The rafting was smooth with some exciting rapids, the staff was conscientious, and the food was really good. It was a wonderful time for my son and me.
