Testimonials

Loved everything about this excursion. The people, the location, the relaxing and informative boat ride to the campground, the FOOD! All of it was top notch.
Thanks Dutch and Carsten!!!

Today we spent an unforgettable day riding an open-air wagon by Vintage Adventures. It was a very unique opportunity to connect with the forest, which the entire family absolutely loved. The day culminated with a luxurious lunch by a peaceful section of the Snake River. All this will forever live in our hearts. Muchas gracias!!

WOW! Thank you so much for all your kindness, hospitality, and generosity. Sol and I had the most AMAZING day today going on the vintage sleigh ride. The whole experience was truly magical and spectacular, and we’ll remember it for the rest of our lives. There are no words to capture how happy we are. It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and we feel immensely lucky and grateful. We hope to see you all again soon when we’re in Jackson next, and we hope to celebrate our wedding weekend in September 2022 with you! Thank you for giving us one of the best days of our lives.

What a perfect experience. The wooden boat, oared by our very capable and knowledgeable Casey, was a perfect way to travel the Snake River and see eagles, beavers, ducks, marmots, etc. Make this adventure a part of your itinerary – it is beyond great.

The winter vintage sleigh ride was the most amazing, magical, once-in-a-lifetime experience. We feel so humbled and grateful to have had such a wonderful, enchanting day. We can’t thank Carol, AJ, Danny, and Dutch enough for all their kindness and generosity, and for everything they did to make this experience one of the best days of our lives. We are over the moon!

We had the most incredible trip with the Teton Raptor Center and JH Vintage Adventures! Len led my two kids (3 and 4 years old) and I down the Snake River – he was a wealth of knowledge and a joy to be around. He also spotted 8 different bald eagles which was a highlight of our time in JH for my son. The Teton Raptor Center team brought a few of their raptors and deepened our education. My kids were enthralled (as was I). I felt that both teams took every precaution during Covid to keep us safe. Highly recommend this to anyone who has the opportunity to participate.

My family and I (10 of us – all adults) did the float and dinner tour and had an outstanding and memorable trip! We saw lots of wildlife, the crew was great, and the dinner at their ‘camp’ was the highlight of our vacation to the Jackson Hole area. If you are looking for a great trip I highly recommend!!

We (2 friends & myself) were helped aboard a beautiful vintage boat and tucked into warm blankets as we were rowed quietly along the crystal clear Snake River…we saw 2 eagles right away…this is the most eagle-populated section of river in the US! We saw juveniles, families and single eagles…probably 15-18 total! After a bit we were served hot coffee & cocoa on the boat, our great guide educated us and made all manner of photo ops possible. After the boat trip we were driven to a teepee where we warmed up with a fire, sat on comfortable couches, and ate home-made scones (thank you, Linda), blueberry-maple sausage and smoked trout. Then we had coffee at a fire pit by the river–more photos, and enjoyed the company of our guide, Carsten, and AJ. It was a luxurious and fun excursion…I recommend it highly!

Did tour in Sep so water levels of Snake River were low which was fine as was a scenic tour. We were picked up at hotel with boat in tow, super convenient as went straight to boat ramp and in the water in minutes, no waiting around. Cassie was our guide, uber skilled and genuinely friendly as well as informative. Was a cold foggy morning but given blankets and hot tea. Despite poor visibility saw several eagles, some on the river rock islands as they were having a bit of hard time seeing too! Beautiful views, great bird watching (eagles, hawks, ducks, geese, magpies … ). Afterwards warmed up by a fire in a teepee with a delicious breakfast by Carrie. Dutch rounded out the team keeping the operation smooth and comfortable. Tetons popped out of the fog for a last gorgeous view. Loved it. About a 4 hour adventure door to door.

The tour started with our friendly guides who picked us up at our hotel. We were impressed right away with their friendly personalities and the gorgeous wood boats they were pulling. Down to the launch! Dry launch and amazing customer service! Very comfortable wood boats equipped with all the safety gear and of course cozy blankets, cups, etc. When we arrive at camp site it was way beyond our expectations. It would qualify for glamping. The appetizers were great and the teenager loved testing out the boat in the pond adjacent to the camp site. Next dinner under the tent. Amazing food and so atmospheric! And then the highlight dessert in a tipi. Really was a magical night. We enjoyed the beauties of the river saw eagles, beavers and amazing views. The best way to celebrate a special occasion. Great for all ages. Our group was 8 people and it was so comfortable
