I ask you what other guide service you know that will serve you breakfast, in a four man blind, while you are taking down Geese, and Ducks?  My experience with River Valley Outfitters will always be one of my most cherished waterfowl hunting memories.

Bill McClain

I have had the privileged of hunting with Greg for a very long time. He is very meticulous about his blinds and always goes the extra mile. We have always had a great time rain or shine. You will not be dissapointed on any hunt.

Shaun S

That kid can flat out duck hunt! I have hunted on numerous occasions with Greg and it is always a fabulous time. I always look forward to a hunt with him. Greg is just a great guy and will put the ducks in your face.

I've hunted with Greg Galli on several occasions and he is in my opinion the personification of a die hard duck hunter.  Rain or shine he takes his business very seriously and will go the extra mile to ensure his clients have nothing short of the full package, whether it be blind location, calling ability or dog work, Greg will provide a hunt that will have you coming back for more.

Ron C

Greg is committed to providing the best overall experience that is possible in a duck blind. I always look forward each year spending time with him. You will not be disappointment.

Tom B

I've hunted with Greg since he first came out to a blind with his dad when he was 3 years old. After hunting with Greg for over 30 years, I'll say that you'd be hard pressed to find another guide with the waterfowl hunting experience Greg has.

Kevin W

I have hunted with Greg for the last 3 years, and each hunt was truly a wonderful experience.  Greg, in my opinion is an excellent caller and sportsman, whom can decoy in the most timid ducks.  Greg has a way of always making each trip memorable, whether the birds are flying or not. Greg is a great conversationalist with many comical stories to tell. This really helps out in between flights of birds. I highly recommend Greg based on my past experiences with this young man.

It was the best hunt for my money - NO Questions about it! Nowhere else will you find an outfitter that will put you on ducks/geese and pheasants, all in the same trip. He shared his knowledge, experience, equipment and most important - his valuable time to make my first waterfowl/upland hunt a memorable experience for me.

What an incredible day. We rolled up to a perfect set-up on the X at 5:30, courtesy of Greg and Dan's 4am - 5:30am work. Excellent concealment and Dan's calling had us banging away for most of the morning. Dan really put on a show today. I'd never seen anyone pull groups of 50 or 60 birds from the fringes and put them on the deck like he did today....didn't even know it was possible.

The boys at River Valley Outfitters are professional, personable and all around class acts. The results speak for themselves. We give them 4 thumbs up. Thanks again for taking care of us. Can't wait to do it again.

Just wanted to send a special thanks to River Valley Outfitters for our hunt on January 4th. The hunt itself carried a lot of meaning due to it being the first and quite possibly the only time that my father, son, and I, had the opportunity to hunt together. Although the weather didn't cooperate, as I believe it set a record for high temps on that day, we were still able to scratch out nine birds that day and all of us had a day to remember.

Also want to send a special thanks to our guide, Chris Perondi, who did a wonderful job getting the birds well within range, as well as making the experience all the more enjoyable with his passion and knowledge for duck hunting. His good natured ribbing of our lack of shooting at times(missing two bull sprig), led to more than a few laughs. Also, Chris was honest with us the morning of the hunt about the difficulties bagging birds due to the warm weather and that speaks volumes as far as we're concerned. Definitely a first class experience and something I will surely do again!! So again, a huge thanks to you and Chris for a great time!

Greg J

I want to thank you again for taking my dad and I out on Saturday, we had a good time. Although we wish the duck/geese action could of been better, a slow day of hunting always beats a good day of working. Your dedication to provide the best hunt possible under the circumstances we were facing, did not go unnoticed. Also, watching your dog work and seeing how well trained she is was amazing!

Hello Greg

Our hunt on 12/15/12 at the Richvale Blind was great. A lot of ducks and a ton of geese up high. We called several flocks of ducks down and were able to kill 7 and lost 2. Should have had more birds, we couldn’t hit the broadside of a barn. Burnt up a lot of ammunition. Had a very good time. Look forward to hunting with you soon

Mike and Joe

Can't thank you enough, Joe and I had an outstanding time and hunt! Brent at Fur, Fin & feather processed our take in 1/2 hour. We had nice warm lunch in Colusa and zipped home without traffic and any issues in under 7 hours which was not bad. Can't wait to fire up the grill later and have a few birds for dinner. Will try your Teriyaki recommendation and probably one with some good rub.Will be back next year with a few buddies for sure. Would like to have the same nasty rainy/windy weather as well, really wasn't bad in the blind. Trully a memorable expertience!

Michael W

I just wanted to thank you again for yesterday’s hunt. It was one of the best hunts I’ve ever been on. I appreciate the time you took to scout the area, I think it made all the difference. I’m working on getting a group from work to go next year. I would want do the late season Speck and Snow hunt. How soon do you think we would have to book it?

Adam S

Greg,
I wanted to thank you again for an amazing hunt!  Probably one of the best duck hunting experiences I've had in years.  From the moment we rolled up to the blind to the last dead duck, it was truly a first class experience.  I would recommend that anyone thinking about booking a guided duck hunt in Nor Cal call you first.  I will definitely be calling you again for next season!

Gerald M.

Greg With a full belly of duck from yesterday’s hunt I wanted to say thank you for a great hunt yesterday. Everything was as advertised, no hiccups, burps or disappointments. Your guide, Dominic, might be young but he certainly knows what he’s doing. He got us into birds even though the weather/ season was not too conducive to great hunting. This was my first guided waterfowl hunt and it certainly will not be my last with River Valley Outfitters. It is great that you are a member of NRA Business Alliance

Hi Greg,

I had a great day yesterday.  Most fun I've had with my clothes on in quite a while. As you could tell, my mobility isn't all that good so I think my duck hunting days are probably over before I break something. The photos you took at the end of the hunt didn't come to my cell so I would really appreciate it if you could send them to my email. They should be a reminder of all the great memories I have about hunts in the past. Many thanks.

I have hunted RVO's unguided blinds several times this season.  The blinds are perfectly setup with decoys and plenty of cover.  The blinds are located in a good area in rice country.  I couldn't be happier with my experience with RVO. Greg always answers my questions quickly by text or email.  I highly recommend RVO's unguided blind for any hunter looking for a stress free hunt.
