paradise adventure company

My family went rafting recently and although it was a little cold the experience was still amazing. The guides were great and everyone was really friendly. What an experience!!

My 2 kids and I floated a scenic, and then did a white water trip.The guides were VERY cool and fun. I appreciated their professionalism too. A perfect mix!Sarah puts a smile on your face at check-in. The shop has really good merchandise! My teenage daughter especially loved the clothes.The ride to the river was entertaining and informative. The guides were SO FUN, the kids actually really enjoyed the scenic float trip!! We did a white water trip next. (Not to be missed on your vacation to Montana!) The white water is a top summer memory! It was great! And BEAUTIFUL Yellowstone river. Both the scenic and white water. Thank you Patrik!

Paradise Adventure Company treated our Japanese Sister City friends and ourselves to a wonderfully fun, thrilling rafting trip down the beautiful Yellowstone River.We had the opportunity to swim, relax, play, roar with laughter and oh yah, paddle through some white water. It was a great afternoon!! Thank you so much!

Rafting the mighty Yellowstone River is a must adventure for most ages (8 to 80)!! Last June, Sara hooked us up from the Chico Hot Springs Resort on a 1/2 day raft trip. But it is really only 1.5hrs on the river and an hour travel time and dress time. They supplied us wet suits and neoprene booties for the cold water. Also splash jackets and helmet. I actually fit into a suit - can't believe it as I am quite the plus sized woman. What a experience! Exhilarating! Two hotties, Jason and Jack, guided us through Yankee Jim Canyon and we all paddled too - the rapids were class 2 and 3 but I swear some of them were class 4. Sara was on the road taking pictures of us - a must get. The boys were super cute with adventure-some spirits - Adrenaline junkies. We paddled through without anyone overboard. Until they let us jump out into the water. I did it just to experience the feel of the snow melt around me and my wet suit. It worked pretty good cut it wasn't too bad - until about 5 minutes in - then I started to get cold. Jack also shared his knowledge of the geology and old tales of the area - satisfying the geek in me. We also saw a majestic Bald Eagle perched on a limb watching us fools drift by. What a sight! From here we went to Yellowstone for the other half day - a perfect combo trip not to be missed.

We had a wonderful time rafting on the Yellowstone & horseback riding on a beautiful mountain. Breathtaking views, fantastic memories all while being well taken care of.They are all very friendly, caring & knowledgeable.

Awesome company, quality equipment and friendly staff. Jack made our half day trip so much fun for my 11 year old who had never experienced whitewater rafting. He also was well versed on the geology and history of the area, which always makes a trip more interesting. It was a blast to see everyone enjoying themselves, hearing the laughter and banter of everyone on the boat and just being out on the water is always therapuetic. The pictures were also super cool too bring home on a disc and view the fun all over again!.We love PAC and highly recommend! Can't wait to go again!

We had a great time! Our party rafted with the company in July just by Yankee Jim Canyon, and it was worth every penny. My daughter "rode the bull" and according to the guide became the first person to unintentionally fall off in the rapids. He retrieved her quickly and promptly said he would rename the spot "Paige's Landing" making the whole situation very comical. Overall the staff was very professional, well-trained, and seemed to genuinely care about the enjoyment and safety of their guests.

We took the half day river raft trip starting south of Yankee Jim Canyon at the end if the rafting season and had a wonderful time! The trip was well planned, the weather was perfect, and our guide Ed made it even more fun. He told us stories of rafting, pointed out landmarks, and even let us swim along the raft for a while. We have been on other raft trips with other adventure companies out of Gardiner and we will definitely use Paradise Adventure Company again. Thanks to Sarah our trip was wonderful and we wish we had time to go twice on this trip.

Once again, for the fourth time, I booked a trip with Patrik and Sarah Ondrus - this time, not with friends, but with my family who came to Montana for their first time. AWESOME is the word! It was pouring rain when we showed up, and cold, and the river was high for this time of year - adventurers included me (53 year old woman), my best friend Sarah (38), my sister (50), my brother (48), and my niece (10) and nephew (12). I asked Patrik if we could have a private trip, just my family, and he complied cheerfully - and let me choose my guide, Matteo - who could not have been more fun! Also easy on the eyes LOL - entranced every woman ages 10 - 53, as a good river guide should! Told us great facts on the trip, about geography and wildlife and history, as well as a collection of the worst (funniest) jokes possible. Family Favorite? What does a fish say when it runs into a concrete wall? DAM! We laughed for days over those and similarly silly great jokes. Still pouring rain as we loaded into the raft, and then we cast off - and all thoughts of weather disappeared - a wild ride out of Gardner, straight into the rapids, nephew "fell" out of raft 6 times in 5 minutes, entirely because he thought it was so fun (we hauled him into gutter as soon as we figured this out), niece never lost her perch "riding the bull" in 5 hours despite drenching waves .. Matteo stopped often to let everyone play in river, played Trust Game ("generally unsuccessful" but great fun for all), Patrik showed up unexpectedly around every turn to take photos (you HAVE to get them - and they are all running on display screen by the time you get back to shop!), plenty of whitewater as well as time to relax on short slack river, and I think all of us greatly appreciated the safety concerns - extremely funny yet serious and informative safety talk before we ever cast off, all required to wear helmets and life jackets with frequent checks by staff to make sure equipment fit correctly, and the three guides keeping all rafts in sight to make sure ALL wear faring okay. Been out with several different guides with PAC, every time a great trip. Ten days in Montana - and the rafting trip the highlight for all of my family members. Cannot recommend Paradise Adventure Company enough! Love you guys!

White water Rafting with Paradise Adventure Company was by far the best idea I had added to our 2 week family vacation this summer. Our family of four had So much fun on this little added adventure... it topped our main attraction we set out for. My family of four-myself 38, my husband 34, and two young adult daughters 16 and 19, had the time of our lives! my oldest didn't go because she was intimidated by the fear of "the unknown" however at the last min we watched a group come back form their White Water Rafting Adventure that was screaming with excitement of the time they had and the group had kids in it as young- looking as 5 years old!...so she decided to come! Derrian (our 19 year old) not only enjoyed the time on the water she became the star of the boat..She participated in the water games our awesome tour guide came up with, jumped into the water freely, and even took over the boat commands. She had the time of her life! witch in-turn added that much more fulfillment to our choice to add the Paradise White Water rafting-Adventure to our vacation. This was all of our first time white water rafting and had a blast. I recommend the 1/2 Day trip to first timers, if there ready to have a awesome experience. I Recommend this company with full 5 stars..Our experience was definitely "Yolo" worthy! from our awesome tour guide Matt, Patrick's ( I think the owner) great photography and the warm welcome and information we revived over the phone ( all 15 times I called). Matt our tour guide rocked out the excitement so grand our Daughters took some of their spending money and tipped him more then we did!! #CANTWAITTILLWECANGOAGAINTHANKSPARADISEADVENTUREYOLO# *****Awesome family time, Great first time experience, Tour guide was so knowledgeable about the surroundings, safety, and FUN! left planning our next visit!*****Public - in the last week
