Rafting lovers know there’s no excitement quite like spring snowmelt, when river waters run fast and deep. Far and Away Adventures understands, and has added six luxury wilderness rafting trips to their summer offerings. Idaho’s sparkling Middle Fork of the Salmon River is the setting for six-day, five-night expeditions within the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness.

“These additional trips are especially good news for travelers who want to unplug their devices and get away from it all in style,” said Steve Lentz, founder and owner of the 45-year-old company. “Our service-motivated guides ensure the beer is cold, the shower water is hot and the tents are ready for rafters’ arrival at each night’s camp.”

Each trip includes daily guided paddling excursions, yoga classes, massage, hiking and restorative dips in backcountry hot springs. Be sure to work up an appetite: Trips include a floating wine cellar and gourmet meals skillfully prepared with locally harvested ingredients incorporated into some dishes. The approximate 2.5 guides-per-guest ratio also means outstanding service throughout your journey.

Generously sized, two-person tents have carpets, raised beds and tables, and mornings come with the delivery of fresh, hot coffee and hot towels. Steamy camp showers and gear transport add to the camp tranquility, as do evening campfires and stargazing. Thanks to the geographic location along the border of the Central Idaho Dark Sky Reserve, you’ll also have great views of the cosmos overhead.
