Q:
Hi, I’m visiting Glacier at the end of Aug. next year. I know the water levels will be lower at that time. So would a rafting trip or scenic float trip be better? I’m guessing even the rafting will be more of a float trip. So does one offer better views than the other? And advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.
A:
We did rafting in mid-August this year and it was definitely more of a float. There were a couple of spots with a little more action, but nothing crazy. Still fun though!
Q:
Is there a river tax on top of the trip fees?
A:
Sorry, I should have clarified better. I am just going rafting, not fishing! Thank you for the input though!
Q:
Is this a good group to travel with as a solo traveler?
A:
Especially great for solo hikers and bikers! There is safety in numbers - and fun friends to be made, too.
