Silver Canoe & Raft Rentals

Silver canoe is great. I go back every year. Very friendly & always prepared for a large group of people. They also give you great tips where to stop, swim, and hang out.

Silver Canoe… i liked this one besides the fact it’s the first choice in Google search cause it’s located on the NY side of the Delaware River. There’s parking on site, you can leave your remote keys at the desk then a bus takes you up the stream and drops off you off by the river with the gears. Most of all I enjoyed it cause we had a great time rafting the Delaware River.

Went last Saturday, loved it! They are very nice, humble people. There’s parking on site, you can leave your remote keys at the desk, prices are great. The directions are clear and we were on a van to our destination quickly. Clean facilities and great inviting people. I’m not going anywhere else now.

Horrible staff members! My group arrived early to the stopping point and the employees started hollering and swearing at us. Talked to the owner about it afterwards and he brushed me off. We will definitely be going with another company next time.

Excellent company to use. Very organized and friendly. I was explained and provided all information about timing and had no problem with the buses. We didnt have to wait more than 5 minutes either at the start or at the end. Excellent company and people!
And yes, the rapids are not that high but that is the same for all the companies on the river.

I am very familiar with rafting on the delaware and I had used this company twice before my last. I will be going with Kittatinny for now on. Our group arrived on time five of us for 1 raft. We paid our 39 bucks a person and signed in properly. No one let us know what time we had to be back. No orientation nothing. We got back at 6 and found their workers waiting and angry. They yelled at us that we had to be back by 5:30. We then had to pay an extra 50 bucks. Stick with Kittatinny.

OK, what do the words «white water rafting» bring to mind? I think, rapids, maybe a little splishy splashy, the need to wear a life vest, potential raft flipping, maybe even a touch of danger.
What does Silver Canoe offer you? The opportunity to spend $ 36 a person to paddle for four hours down the Delaware, because there’s no current or rapids, while getting chomped on by obnoxious bugs (thanks for warning us, by the way), stop off on an island covered in rocks, poison ivy and animal feces (OK, that part was our own decision, it’s not like they sent us there on purpose) and spend an inordinate amount of time on buses.
I do not understand why they are the only company that doesn’t have parking at the landing and instead buses you both to the river and back from it. Seems unnecessary. Then again, so did classifying the experience as white water rafting.
