Our guide was extremely rude. Don’t even know his name because he did not tell us. Basically he was the rower of the float. Told us it was ok to ask questions but he was not going to tell stories . When you did ask a question he answered but made you feel foolish. He was only half-way polite after it was all over after he was handed a tip. He was extremely disrespectful and dismissive to the couple on the trip with us even telling the woman he had already addressed what she ask. It was a very uncomfortable situation. He was not a people person and didn’t seem to enjoy his job at all. The only positive was it was a gorgeous day.

It was a beautiful trip down the snake river. Our guide Deshawn, was great! He knew the history of the area and a lot about the animals. He was also very personable and funny! Also was great about showing us his favorite places to take pictures and took pictures for us.

Jackson Hole Grand Teton National Park Scenic Float Trips are run through the Heart Six Ranch in Moran, WY. My wife and I were among the seven passengers taking this trip in mid-September 2022.
As guests of the Ranch, we were instructed upon check-in to be at the café at 7:45 the morning of our float trip. Our first clue that things weren’t going to be ideal was that we didn’t get going until after 9:00 a.m. without much explanation or communication with the passengers. Once on the water, our guide was curiously non-responsive and almost brusque, never volunteering information about the area and answering guest questions with one or two words. Several guests tried to engage him during the 3-hour trip, but could only elicit the most basic responses. Frankly, it made everything feel a little awkward.
To be fair, our guide had the requisite technical skill, getting us in and out of the float boat without us getting wet, and adeptly and gently turning the boat so that all the passengers could get a clear view of all the beautiful sights along the Snake River. And, he did point out what little wildlife we saw, a bald eagle in a tree and a golden eagle flying overhead. The scenery was enchanting, and the ride itself was quiet and relaxing. It’s just a shame that the most animated and enthusiastic our guide was that day was when I tipped him after the trip; I guess I should at least feel good about him appreciating that gesture.
We really enjoyed much of this float trip; it’s just a shame that an unenthusiastic guide and mediocre communication with guests kept this exceptional opportunity from being anything more than an average experience.

The scenery was spectacular, unsurpassed. Tour began an hour late without explanation other than watching guide spending hour bailing water out of boat from rain night before. Guide was worst ever, not one word for 3 Hrs, Unless guest asked question and then barely got a 1 or 2 word answer. No information and no animals sighted. Lovely peaceful float beautiful scenery but poor guide and customer service. Our worst visitor tour ever by far. All 5 members in our party agreed.

We had great weather for the day. The staff was nice and equipment well kept. Our guide was full of stories, literally - take everything he says with a grain of salt 😉. There is no rapids, but plenty of views of the Tetons and some wildlife.

We had no problem finding the ranch, but had to walk around and ask where to meet the float group. The guide was great and had local stories that were very colorful. We had a great float. Saw a couple eagles, had hoped for more wildlife, but what can you do.

A very good trip with kids, it was just a little slow for us. Our tour guide David was very friendly and informational about the mountains and all the other questions we asked!

Highly recommend this tour company. Hunter was an excellent guide. Another tour group was launching in the river at the some time our group was and their guide was very rude to his guests. He was not very friendly and was shouting orders to his guests. We were so thankful we had Hunter, He was very friendly, knowledgeable about the area, and kept conversations going with our group the entire trip. Although we only saw eagles which was great, you can't beat the scenery down the river.
