History

Established in 1986.

Just as a river shapes a canyon, the love of Tim and Pam Whitney has shaped Rivers & Oceans. Tim and Pam met in 1984 in Marble Canyon, Arizona as adventure travel was just beginning to take off. Pam was a manager for a Grand Canyon rafting company and Tim met her when he applied for a job as a boatman. Tim loved to tell the story of how he got the job… and the girl!

In the 80s’, the number of outfitters offering rafting trips in Grand Canyon was growing and information on booking river trips was hard to come by. Tim and Pam saw a need for a travel company that could help people in their search to find their best water adventure. They started Rivers & Oceans together in 1987 with the vision of booking adventure trips from the Colorado River to the Sea of Cortez.

In 2012 Tim passed away leaving a lasting impression in the hearts of those who knew him. A few years later Pam retired leaving Robby Pitagora, a dear friend and fellow river guide, at the helm of Rivers & Oceans.

Meet the Business Owner

Robby P.

Business Owner

Growing up in the foothills of Saratoga, CA, Robby knew at a young age that there was something special about traveling the earth’s waterways. Before he was old enough to enjoy a beer at Mel’s Tavern in Angels Camp, Robby was being paid to guide people down the Stanislaus River. He fell in love with the experience of traveling through the arteries of the planet and to this day he has never let an opportunity go by to explore a new region, raft pristine rivers or put his feet on a new trail.

After graduating from Northern Arizona University, Robby decided to turn his passion for river running and adventure travel into a career. A lifetime adventurer, Robby is now embarking on a new voyage as he takes his decades of knowledge, joy of sharing and flair for building teams to another level as CEO of Rivers & Oceans.
