Magic Falls Rafting-A Maine Family Company

Celebrating 34 years of White Water Rafting in Maine

Maine white water rafting is more than "just a business" to us. It is even more than the thrill of whitewater. It is a time to shed worries and stress - a time to smile and laugh, a time to be part of the river's unending flow. Come feel and enjoy our natural high. Let the river be yours, too. Magic Falls Whitewater Rafting Company strives to individualize your experience by keeping our groups small. We aim first for safety. Second, for a rafting trip that touches the heart and excites the soul! That's our mission.

Magic Falls now has over 40 rafts, 25 inflatable kayaks, buses, vans, trucks and 30-40 of the best guides you will ever meet. Some of their guiding staff have been with them since 1989. Accommodations consist of the Dead River Lodge with king, queen, and bunk rooms, the Rivers Inn, a guesthouse for groups of 16 and, a campground with camping sites and cabin tents. In 2010 we founded Magic Rivers, a rafting company dedicated to offering a double run of the Upper Kennebec Gorge. The Magic Rivers Multi-Gorge trip is for thrill-seeking adventurers. In 2013 we added the "Cheap Thrills" Trip offering vacationers a chance to experience Maine rafting without a huge investment in time and money.

"Hi Team,

I went on the Dead River yesterday with Justin as our guide. I wanted to let you know how much fun we all had. Justin was great and so was all your staff! Thank you for helping us make memories for our family.

"Magic Falls made our rafting experience absolutely perfect. Some rafting guides take you along for “their” ride where the guides at Magic Falls make the experience about their guests. Haley was extremely enthusiastic, accommodating and a pleasure to spend time with. 10/10 recommend this company!"
