For 1 day clients who want to camp at our South Fork American River Riverside Campground this is available for a $15/person fee. There are toilets and showers on site. Meals are not included but may be available for some groups.
For Yuba River trips we have a private campsite within the National Forest. This is steps away from the river. Camping is primitive with no showers and just port-o-potty toilets. This is where we camp for our overnight trips and additional nights may be available for 1 day trips for a fee.
For other rivers camping is included with the overnight trips, but additional nights are not available as we do not have a base camp in the area. Check the Area Information for your specific river for options.
Tributary Whitewater Tours has been running white water rafting trips in Northern California & beyond since 1978. The company was originally founded by Dan Buckley, an integral player in the development of white water rafting in California. Dan Buckley’s love to share the excitement, wonder, and natural beauty that rivers have to offer with others lives on with the current owner, Jeremiah Copper.
Tributary continues to be an industry leader in the west coast rafting industry. We offer more rivers than any other outfitter, giving us the ability to accommodate younger kids down to ages 4 (thru our own experience as parents). Our team is one a kind, and everyone in our staff, from guides, to drivers, to the folks answering the phones – we all have a passion for what we do.
The rivers call to us for different reasons, be that extreme white water, fishing, enjoying nature or just experiencing new things & places. There is magic in every river trip. For some, you may first see a bald eagle in flight for the first time, or maybe conquer your first Class 5 rapid. We are here to help you choose your perfect adventure, for any excitement level.
