“Our group had 8 guys for a bachelor party. The tour company, and our guides Marcus and Pete, did a great job getting us down the river with no injuries… a big concern of the bride haha. Definitely recommend. The cliff jump and the waterfall at the end was icing on the cake.”

“Went on the White Salmon half-day trip for a bachelor’s party with Wet Planet. It was amazing! Incredible rafting, great scenery, and fantastic service. Huge shout out to our guide, Mason, who made it a ton of fun for everyone on board. Overall, great value for the money spent and we’ll be looking for a trip to do with them in 2025.”

“Durham was a beast of a guide! We did this for my cousin’s bachelor party, four of us, and this was my first time rafting, and he let us absolutely enjoy the entire experience. He safely allowed us to push our limits and truly experience the joys of rafting. I highly recommend Wet Planet. They are fully capable and allow even beginners the best of time.”
