Excellent fun and wonderful guides - Our group of 13 had two rafts, guided by Jordan and Emma, who were not only expert rowers but highly informative on the river and surrounding areas, as well as being funny. They gave a good safety talk ahead of time and were always cognizant of everyone’s security. Excellent group to be with!

Relaxing Paddle - It was a great short trip, but it was too bad that the river was too cold for a dip. I request a warmer river next time. Our guide James is a lovely human. . .. .

Great family activity - Not as scary as they make it sound. They make sure to cover all eventualities if someone should fall in, but the rapids are pretty tame. Scenery is gorgeous and the guides try very hard to make it fun, especially for kids.

Fantastic float with bighorn sheep sighting - Absolutely fantastic. It was late in the season and the river was low, so the trip was not about the thrill of rapids -- though there were some very small ones -- but about the glory of the landscape and its wildlife. Our guide/pilot was quite knowledgeable and very funny, and his obvious love for the area made us love it as well. He was very excited to spot bighorn sheep far above the river, within Arches National Park; a glimpse of them was a treat for us all. Well worth it.

Rafting with Ben - Had a really wonderful experience today rafting with Ben as our guide. The scenery and water were beautiful. Ben was personable, knowledgeable, lighthearted, and made our experience exactly what we needed it to be. Should I have the chance to enjoy another raft trip in Moab, I am certain I want Ben as my guide.

Nice afternoon on (and in) the Colorado river. - We had a great time rafting on the Colorado River. Our guide, Dean was very knowledgeable about the area, pointing out movie locations and birds; bald eagle, great blue heron. He even pointed out a nice area to jump in and float alongside the boat. Lots of fun.

Fun time on the Colorado - Ashley was our guide and was very personable and knowledgeable about the float down the river. All the other employees were great and helpful. Rapids not too much because of the time of year. Just enough to get splashed a little. We enjoyed it.
