About Your Trip

For a more intimate experience on the Yellowstone, this trip is designed for smaller groups and couples looking for a quiet, personalized float through some of Montana’s most beautiful water.

You’ll drift a scenic section of the river near Livingston and Paradise Valley, surrounded by mountain views, open sky, and the natural rhythm of the Yellowstone. The pace is relaxed and fully tailored to your group, whether you’re looking for a peaceful morning float or a laid-back sunset experience.

Trips run 2–3 hours and are completely private, allowing you to enjoy the river without crowds or distractions.

Onboard, you’ll have a comfortable setup with blankets, beverages, and space to unwind, along with the option to add catering such as local charcuterie, pastries, or curated snacks. Guests are also welcome to bring their own food and drinks to make the experience their own.

This trip is all about simplicity and setting—a clean, well-run float that lets you fully take in the river and the landscape around you.

Cancel for free up to 30 days before the trip and receive credit back to your account. Cancelling within 30 of the trip will forfeit your deposit to the guide. Day-of cancellations and no-shows will be charged the full balance of the trip to their card.

Each trip's price is determined by the guide and reflects all associated costs. A significant factor in pricing is often the type of boat and the corresponding fuel expenses.
