CA Family Vacation Ideas

Make Your Vacation Your Own!

There are so many reasons why river rafting with River Runners is the perfect California family vacation idea!

We have seen executives who are stressed out, play in the water like children, wiggle bare feet in the sand, skip rocks, take a deep breath, sigh and quizzically exclaim, "I feel so relaxed!".

Seriously, this is our specialty at River Runners. Our tours don't just shove you around from point A to point B, instead, we facilitate an experience that is guided by what you need from your vacation.

And if you don't know what you need, that works too! The river has a way of working its magic.

The sounds of the river, the smell of blossoming trees, the taste of sun-ripened blackberries picked from the side of the river, and of course the thrill and sheer excitement of being in a rubber boat plowing through rapids will wake you up and calm you down all at the same time.

River Runners staff are inspired individuals who will treat you like a friend, take care of your kids, and really just focus on showing you a good time.

We understand the difficulties of organizing a family vacation and we value the effort you have to put in to make your vacation happen. River Runners is family-owned and operated, so when you call, you will speak to real people who have an intimate knowledge of every aspect of the river experience.

We will be happy to answer even the questions that you think are silly and will give you the space you need to make decisions about your vacation.

The best trip that River Runners offers for a family vacation is the two-day/two-night trip on the South Fork of the American River. A lot of our guests drive up from Los Angeles and other regions and they often add an extra night of camping to their trip as well.

Make your vacation your own and talk to us about what you need. We will make it happen!
