• Rogue River Rafting

  5 "Our guides, Mark, Lorenzo, Diego, and Eric made this experience possible…. We basically entrusted the safety of our children’s lives to these guys. Looking back on it, I cannot think of anyone else I would trust more under those circumstances. These guys were consummate professionals, who were focused 24-7 and had a mastery over their craft. Third, food never tasted better than after breathing in all that fresh air and taking in the natural energy exuding from the mountains, trees, and river. Our guides prepared the best meals: breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Every meal was a 10 out of 10, hands down. One of the desserts was maybe the best dessert I’ve ever had in my life (i.e. the “Banana Foster”)." 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue River Rafting

  5 "My partner and I were used to doing DIY adventure trips so it was such a treat to be looked after by Momentum - with knowledgeable guides, delicious fresh food and lots of time on the river, we are definitely converts to this kind of trip! The trip was the perfect mixture of wild river, wildlife, wilderness and really comfortable beds in warm cabins at night - brilliant accommodation with nice hot showers! We got plenty of river time and our guide Sol made sure we enjoyed the best rapids and got involved in the inflatable kayak and SUP! The food was excellent, and we loved the nice touch of providing local wines and cheeses. We felt a real connection with the guides, they were so welcoming and interested in our lives, and couldn't do enough to ensure we had an epic time. Can't recommend this trip enough!" - Katie and Jon 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue River Rafting

  5 "Three or so years ago, I made this same journey with a dozen other folks in heartbreakingly beautiful sunny weather — a wonderful trip. THIS time, I dragged my husband along, and together with just two other fellas and our superb guide Anna, we froze our butts off during a couple days of unseasonable rain. Yet, when I think back, all I can recall was the extraordinary natural beauty of the river, the camaraderie of our fellow paddlers, my admiration for our river guide, the comfort of our accommodations, and how grateful I was that second afternoon when we pulled into Paradise Lodge and got our “Rum and Tea” in the bar. Thank you, Momentum — can’t wait till next time!" - Susan Gee Rumsey 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue 3-Day Lodge Trips

  5 "I highly recommend Momentum River Expeditions! We did the 3 day lodge to lodge trip that was really the best of wilderness adventure and comfort. The crew were all amazing on the water and off. They created a very fun, educational, engaging, and relaxing environment where all our needs were easily taken care of. I’d join this classy group for another trip anytime! Thank you for the fun and adventure. " - Melisa 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue 3-Day Lodge Trips

  5 "I always thought I needed at least a week to disconnect from work and truly relax - not true! A three day river trip with Momentum on the Rogue completely did the trick. As a matter of fact, at the end of the first morning I already felt like a new person - the river was gorgeous, the rafting so much fun, and the guides phenomenal. I really enjoyed the smaller group compared to prior trips with different companies, it created opportunities to connect with everyone on the trip. Will definitely be back for other trips with momentum!" - Sandrijn 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue River 1/2 Day

  5 "Our family recently did the 1/2 day Rogue River rafting trip. I wish we had time to do the full day! Our day started with a minor snag but was very quickly fixed by Caleb who went above and beyond to make sure we were set up for a great trip. Our driver was Tina who was a delight to chat with to and from the rafting sight. She gave us some great tips on places to eat. Our rafting guide, Julio, was outstanding! He was so knowledgeable and funny. We were amazed at his stories and places he has rafted. We are looking forward to our next trip so we can plan a longer rafting trip. Thank you for a fantastic experience!" - Delia 1 2 3 4 5

• 5 "It was a great experience. That the tents were always up was very convenient. The guides were super, the best was the walking art museum, Lorenzo, what an interesting guide, all were very friendly and approachable. Food was super, enough of everything plus fruits and vegetables. Amazing how fast 6 days can pass. I read ca. 15 years ago "The last of the mountain man", neat to see his homestead on this trip. The highlight of my summer, my son was also on this trip, and he liked it a lot, too." - Gunnar 1 2 3 4 5

• Lower Owyhee

  5 "I have been on many rivers, 38 to be exact. Have used Momentum twice now using guides. Andy and Mike did a great job. One of the best I have encountered using guides. Not only was their guidance down the Owyhee fantastic so was there cooking. I had a friend come along who did not know how to swim. They did a great job in assisting and protecting his experience. They did it so well that he wants some more adventure. " - Joe 1 2 3 4 5

• Middle Owyhee

  5 "If you ever get the chance to do this fantastic trip, jump on it as hard as you can. This incredible place is only available for rafting at high water during snowmelt, which some years doesn't happen - or the window is very short. Yes, it's cold, and yes, it's wet. But what does one expect in the early spring in the Pacific Northwest? Just frickin' do it!" - Gordon 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue River Trail Running

  5 "Momentum River Expeditions led a group of 14 runners down the Rogue River Trail, and supported by raft! Their team was professional, fun to be around, and made excellent food for us each evening! I'd do another Momentum trip in a heartbeat" - Mischa Hedges 1 2 3 4 5

• Rogue River Trail Running

  5 "Running the Rogue River trail with the support of Momentum was an amazing experience! The Momentum team seamlessly handled all of the travel logistics, food, safety considerations, campsite set up, and I'm sure many other things that I wasn't even aware of, so the group could simply enjoy the beautiful experience. And the guides were incredibly kind and personable, so it was really fun to spend time in camp with them. I would do another trip with Momentum in a heartbeat, and recommend them without reservation. Thank you, Momentum!" - Kate 1 2 3 4 5

• DeRiemer Adventure Kayaking Trips

  5 "Ann and I had a great time on the trip. Andy and crew did an excellent job making sure everyone had a great camping experience. The food prepared was gourmet. Jess and Austin did an excellent job setting up camp everyday as well as cooking our meals. Mary DeRiemer and her crew were excellent in guiding us down the river safely. We are planning on joining both companies next year. Thanks for the wonderful time on the river!" - Jack and Ann 1 2 3 4 5

• Lower Owyhee

  5 "This early April trip on the Lower Owyhee was our first rafting trip with Momentum. We chose them because they have an excellent reputation, were offering one of the earliest trips of the season (we weren’t going to miss the optimal float levels this year!), and we’d crossed paths with them last year on the Alsek River. Our five professional and very personable guides (Andy (trip leader), Kaity, Shana, Mike, and Rob) worked really hard – initially in less than optimal weather – to give us an AWESOME experience in a truly wonderful part of Oregon. 😀 The food was an excellent mix of vegetarian and meaty choices. And the weather finally gave us two warm and sunny days! These factors, along with a very congenial group of fellow rafters, made this the unforgettable experience we’d hoped for. We're seriously considering rafting the Illinois River with Momentum in 2020 (if water levels permit)." - Bruce 1 2 3 4 5

• Tatshenshini River Rafting

  5 "I know it’s rare, but Momentum is a company that delivers everything they promise. I have been rafting with many outfitters but they set the standard. Great guides, great food, great gear, great times. We had an amazing trip..." 1 2 3 4 5

• Tatshenshini River Rafting

  5 "I think I have been on a half dozen trips with Momentum (and dozens with other river outfitters so I know what I am talking about in this one limited area). Momentum rocks! Absolutely the best in every category. The guides are unbelievable in their knowledge of the surroundings and in their ability to make everyone feel welcome and challenged. The food is first class. Every trip is pure fun from dawn till late night. " 1 2 3 4 5

• DeRiemer Adventure Kayaking Trips

  5 "In July 2018, my best friend and I joined Momentum and the DeRiemers for a 6 day, 5 night raft supported kayak trip down the Main Salmon River. It was our first time paddling western whitewater and we couldn't have asked for a better introduction! The Momentum Guides and DeRiemer Instructors are top-notch. All were highly skilled on the river and very warm and welcoming. The Momentum guides did an excellent job of setting up comfy camps each night and their cooking can't be beat- seriously, the food was outstanding! An extra thank you to Andy for patiently showing me the basics of fly fishing, it was my first time trying it and a highlight of the trip for me. Rafters and hard boaters, if you are looking to get away from it all without having to deal with the often challenging backcountry logistics this is the way to go. Thank you all for a great week in Idaho!" - Donna 1 2 3 4 5

• Wilderness Gourmet Rafting Trips

  5 "Just returned from the Upper Klamath Wilderness Gourmet Rafting Safari - 3 day trip. What's beautiful about these river trips is the camaraderie and friendships you build through the adventures together. This trip was a nice reunion with guide-friends whom I've been traveling with since 2012, and meeting new friends who you already have a personal connection with from the river. Pete, Diego, Sol, Marc - a big Thank You!! Momentum guides are all very experienced, having run rivers all around the world, so I always trust them 110%! Since this was a gourmet trip, we had Chef Matt Domingo on the trip again, who just blew everyone away with his culinary awesomeness! The Upper Klamath has long stretches of fun class 3-4 rapids... gorgeous scenery for much-needed river & nature therapy. The base camp is smartly put together - this is glamping, not roughing it at all! And you can choose the activities at your comfort levels - from mountain biking, hiking, and inflatable kayaks. We also had a serious corn hole tournament! :) Looking foward to planning the next trip - on the Salmon!" - Carolyn 1 2 3 4 5
