What is an appropriate age for river trips?
A. These are great multi-generational trips – good for grandparents to grandchildren. So far a maximum age, you are as young as you feel. Call if you’d like to discuss any age related issues or concerns. We have taken many people in their 80’s. Minimum age varies with the trip you select. River trips are great family vacations. Jerry and Carole have rafted for years with their kids who now range from 15-22 years of age. The Hughes kids have gone on the rivers since they were tiny. We leave the final decision on the ages of children up to the parents. We routinely take 6-9 year olds, and have taken kids so young as 4 and 5. Young people under 16 must be accompanied by an adult. Give us a call, so we can discuss the best rivers and dates for your children based on their experience and age. We love outfitting for families, and the trips are great family vacations!
