First timers! - Trip was a last minute decision and definitely worth it. My kids are 5,8 and 14, they had a great time and was enough adventure for all of them without being too much for my youngest. The guides were amazing and very knowledgeable about the surrounding areas. Will definitely go back next time we are in the area!

Colorado river rafting - My husband and I had never gone rafting. This was a perfect introduction. A knowledgeable energetic staff. Our guide Hannah was very competent and kind. She was also an expert on the environment especially water usage. Would highly recommend. Also a beautiful drive to the launch point

Would do it again! - While we had some issues with booking, in the end Grace straitened everything out and we had a fabulous trip with Ben as our river guide. He imparted lots of info and was able to easily turn our raft to see wildlife ( including a bald eagle nest where two yearlings were sitting side x side on a log near the nest) and rock formations and anything that was important to see. Worth the trip, now thinking we could have done the full day. Drawbacks: meet at 8:30. Did not get on the the river until 10:15. Not a problem about driving to the input point, but could have met at 7:30 and been on the river more than 1 & 1/2 hours. That being said, river was moving, the rapids ( up to 2 1/2 rating according to our guide) were fun and Ben prepared & guided us safely through without mishap. We would recommend this trip, even for your kids 8 or older. We had two young kids in our boat with their dad and the 2 of us who are over 68. Ben was great and interacted with us all, as well as keeping track of the other rafts in our group. Great trip! Kudos to Ben👍👏

Awesome Experience - So much fun on the river riding the rapids and looking at the wild life. Guide Liam had everyone feeling safe and comfortable and in a great mood, including my nervous hubby. He even arranged to have a pair of bald eagles up in the trees and some big horn sheep at the end of the trip. I highly recommend this trip and outfit.

Fun on the Colorado River - This trip was so much fun on a hot summer day! Liam helped everyone feel comfortable and got us all in a high spirits, including my nervous husband. We saw herons, swallows and their nests, a pack rat nest, a pair of eagles and their fledgling on their giant nest, and, to top it off, two big horn sheep. Wait, I didn’t mention the rodeo rapids and refreshing splash fights and swim ops 💦. I regretted not doing the full day!

Great experiment - Both Gavin and Ashley were personable and extremely well-informed and entertaining. Having Ashley as our boat guide was like listening to a teacher who is really passionate about her subject matter. Her explanation of the area’s history and geology truly made the trip.
