- Colorado Riverway Recreation Area - Marvel at the golden light and dynamic hues on the canyon walls along the boundary of Arches National Park. Conclude your day with the “river magic” experience. After check-in, your group will be transported in air-conditioned comfort along the picturesque Highway 128 en route to the river. This section offers a gentler experience than our AM Raft Trip, featuring calmer floats with occasional splashes; the renowned Whites Rapid (Class II or III depending on the season) provides a refreshing cool down on a hot summer afternoon. Allow us to row you into the sunset as you unwind and reflect on the journey. It’s the ideal way to end your day’s adventures.
- Fisher Towers - Capture breathtaking views of the magnificent Fisher Towers, which overlook the valley where your river adventure begins.
- Moab - Join us at our downtown Moab location, and enjoy historical insights and local stories as we travel through the town on our way to the Colorado River.

Absolutely Unforgettable Rafting Adventure with Wild West Voyages! - If you're in Moab and looking for an unforgettable experience on the river, look no further than Wild West Voyages! Our rafting trip was the highlight of our entire vacation, and we owe a huge thanks to our incredible guide, Jay.
Jay was not only a total pro on the water, but he was also an absolute blast. His deep knowledge of the area's geology and history brought the stunning red rock canyons to life—every bend in the river had a story, and he told them with enthusiasm and humor that kept us smiling the whole way. You could tell he genuinely loves what he does, and it made the trip feel personal and special.
The scenery was breathtaking, the rapids were just the right mix of fun and excitement, and the whole team at Wild West Voyages made us feel safe, welcome, and ready for adventure. Whether you're a seasoned rafter or a first-timer, this is an experience not to miss.
Five stars all the way—thank you, Wild West Voyages and Jay, for an epic day on the water! We’ll be back!

A wonderful Moab river adventure - We had an amazing time. The team at WWV are incredibly friendly and kind. Jay who took us down the river is a deeply experienced and knowledgeable river man. In addition to being avuncular and charming he knows so much about the surrounding geology, flora and fauna. So the trips are both breathtakingly beautiful and fun but also properly informative.

AWESOME afternoon rafting excursion! Lots of wildlife - We had the most wonderful rafting trip with Jonah this afternoon, it was honestly one of the coolest experiences we’ve ever done! The ride itself was chill, with fun, easy rapids and even some swims, and the views were so incredible. The highlight was Jonah’s deep and engaging knowledge of the area, and in particular local wildlife. With his assistance we spotted everything from otter dens to a family of bald eagles! I could not recommend this experience more highly. Thanks Wild West Voyages and Jonah!

Moab Raft Trip - Our family of four had a wonderful time on our guided rafting tour down the Colorado River! Our guide Jonah did a wonderful job of both keeping us safe and providing us with a wealth of information about the wildlife, plants, river, and rock formations. We saw a fox, bald eagles, herons, a lizard, and many other birds. Jonah showed us quicksand, foraged some edible berries, and found us some fun rapids on a mild river. The kids especially loved hopping out of the boat to swim (and the snacks & lemonade!). The cold river water and breeze from the raft provided great relief from the mid-summer heat. Thank you!

Great trip! - We had a family member who has compromised health issues. When I shared these issues with the "intake" person (Jonah), he was attentive and thoughtful. The notes for the guide accurately described our situation and requests for special attention. Alison, our guide, and Mike, our driver were super attentive and accommodating. Highly recommend this outstanding outfit.
