    My family went on the white water trip in August ‘26. GRE gave us a fantastic experience and they were great with our young kids. The entire family had a blast, thank you for a great day on the water.

    We did a 2 night trip with GRE from a July 11-13. Our guides Adam and Tristan did an incredible job putting us on the fish and feeding us like kings at camp. It was a great trip. I would definitely recommend these guides and this trip if you are serious about fishing the Gunnison.

    Spent a half day on the lower Gunnison and our guide, Beau, put us on fish, provided great advice, and was very personable. It was a great experience and I highly recommend him and GRE!

    Sandy and her staff were so accommodating to our continuous fly-fishing experience. Jones made our time in the Gunnison River, catching and releasing the beautiful trout, spectacular!

    A two-day fishing excursion in a beautiful part of the country! Our guides were experts who taught us to fly fish and kept our gear untangled while navigating the raft through rapids, kept us safe, cooked, set up camp and, most importantly, reminded us to drink enough water. It was a joy to be part of these two days and, as an inexperienced fisher(wo)man, I was thrilled to catch a few fish!

    The crew at Gunnison River Expeditions were so great to work with! We came in with a large group and they handled everything so well and were a blast to ride down the river with!

    We had great time doing the half float raft trip. Our guide Nik (Murad) was amazing and had shared his wealth of knowledge about the area. We will be back next time to take another rafting tour.

    Had an amazing two-day trout fishing experience on the Gunnison River with Gunnison River Expedition! My wife, great friends, and I had a fantastic time on the water. Our guides Nick and Jones were absolutely excellent - knowledgeable, friendly, and made sure we had a great time throughout the entire trip. The scenery was absolutely beautiful, the trout fishing was great, and the rapids were awesome! It was the perfect combination of excellent fishing and thrilling whitewater action. The booking process was incredibly easy and the team was very accommodating to our needs. Everything was well organized from start to finish. Would definitely recommend Gunnison River Expedition to anyone looking for a quality fishing experience. We'll certainly be booking with them again! Thanks Nick, Jones, and the whole team for such a memorable two days!

    Great experience at GRE thanks to our awesome guides Jones, and Nick. Jones was the guide for our friends and Nick was with myself and my husband. He was patient, extremely knowledgeable, skilled and personable! We loved him so much we requested him again for the second day! I would definitely recommend requesting either of these guys if you have an upcoming trip.

    Staff was very kind and helpful. Loved our rafting guide, Tristan. He was very knowledgeable and made the rafting extra fun. Can't wait to go back and do a fishing guided trip

    So much fun! We did a more chill section of the river that was mainly class 2 but it was still quite enjoyable. Our guide Nik was delightful and took great care of us. Made a couple stops to see some petroglyphs and have a dip in the river to cool off. Awesome views the whole time. Sandy (the bartender/manager) was really sweet and helpful, gave us some great recommendations for other activities in the area as well as the best ways to explore the river and Black Canyon National Park. Would definitely use this company to do some more technical higher rated rafting trips in the future.

    WHOA! Mark, Richard, Jim and Stuart led our trip of 8 through the canyon. They cooked the most dope river food we've ever had, set up and broke down camp like pros, untangled knots like they were born for it while my butter fingers wouldn't work and know every honey hole in the canyon... Best and most knowledgeable guides I've ever fished with, hands down... Hard to say if it was more fun trading stories at night or listening to them tell us to land our fly at a specific rock point or bank and hooking a fish every time they shot out some advice... Slept under the stars for two nights with the best company and scenery in the world. Bucket list checker without a doubt... Don't use a tent when you're out there, the stars and milky way are beyond incredible... I shouldn't even be writing this review because this is the type of place you find and don't tell anyone about...

    Did the 2 day trip thru the Black Canyon last week of July. Fishing was excellent, weather was perfect, fishing guide (Tyler J.) was excellent. First the drive to the hike in spot, interesting. The 20-30 minute hike into the canyon is very manageable. Once on the river you are in for an experience. Camping on the river was nice (put a couple of extra towels in your dry bag). The food was way better than expected. Topped of by an upside down pineapple cake. Definitely checked the box of a bucket list fishing trip.

    Outstanding river experience couldn’t ask for anything better. Our guide Nick was top-notch. This trip was worth worth every penny and then some. Highly recommend this, if you like river trips.

    A unique setting, with stunning vistas in every direction. Birds or not, a stroll in this environment is an unforgettable experience.

    GRE has taken me, with friends, through the Gunnison Gorge in late June or early July three times. Each was a great experience. Safe navigation, good raft handlers, provided good fishing opportunities with very rewarding results on this beautiful float. The camp sites were well cared for, the provisions were nicely varied, and well prepared. Each experience is still a treasure. I will go again given the opportunity. Bruce Duke

    The Black Canyon was an excellent trip: great guides, great fishing, beautiful scenery. Try landing a rainbow while shooting a whitewater rapid!

    North Rim Hunt Club has the best "wild bird hunting" experience on the Western Slope. The native cover allows the birds to act as they would if Mother Nature put them there herself.

    Best place on the Black Canyon/Gunnison River to fish or hunt birds. Owners are great people !!!

    An experience of a lifetime. We did a full day of fly fishing, which was great. The accommodations in our cabin were excellent, as was the dinner and breakfast. The fishing was excellent, and the scenery unparalleled.

    Looks like a great service. I have never used them before, but I get a quarterly email about upcoming trips and services.

    My friends and I had a wonderful time this summer with Nic, our guide. He showed us some of the most historical areas such as the oldest petroglyphs in North America, and And Learning about the black table Mesa was amazing. Nic was responsible, safe, patient, and informative during our rafting adventure. As well as that, we loved our cabins and the overall park was such a comfortable stay. I couldn’t recommend this journey enough to those who wish to seek some adventure in a very historical and beautiful location. I would recommend having Nic as a tour guide because of his knowledge of the area and his love for the river. Thank you all so much! I will be coming back next year

    One of the best trips ever. Great environment. Great guides. Great food. Great fishing. Great adventure. There wasn’t a moment on this journey that I wasn’t having a good time or just generally awed by the surroundings.
