Peaceful and cooling… - We opted for the super chill flat water paddle experience after lots of hiking. It was not challenging but very relaxing which was great after all the hiking and hot sun. Ramie is darling and has a nice way of chatting and sharing about Moab. It is apparent she enjoys her job. I so appreciate these young entrepreneurs who bring enthusiasm and skill every day! There are more challenging options so call to find out if that is more of what you are seeking. The team is friendly, enthusiastic and well equipped to create the best experience possible. Truly one of the highlights of our trip to Moab.

Jonah made my day! - Fantastic day! The communication before the trip was great - very quick, friendly and informative. Very cool business. They are not a big company and it felt like I was in the river with my friends from back home. Jonah's knowledge/skills, authentic personality and welcoming personality made the day not just a day on the river, but an experience of the beauty of Arches, the Colorado River and meeting new friends.

Can't miss this excursion! - We had an amazing paddle board excursion with Paddle Moab! We did the morning tour, which was perfect. Beautiful scenery, calm and peaceful excursion with an awesome guide. Ramie was the best!!! We loved her! We had 2 adults and 3 teenagers (2 boys and a girl) and we ALL loved it. It felt like we were immersed in the scenery and seemed like we were all alone. We even saw some bighorn sheep on the cliff side! 100% recommend.

SUP Moab on the Colorado - Leonard was our river guide and was awesome from taking photos, giving us a safety review pre paddle and providing insights into the local history and geography, the experience was amazing. My son even pulled of a headstand on his SUP with Leonard first having demonstrated the technique. He also was patient with our group and let everyone go at their own pace. Swimming down the river for a while was refreshing as well.

Paddle boarding down the Colorado River - Ramie was our guide and she was amazing! She immediately put me at ease as I was a little nervous for my first time paddle boarding on a river. She was knowledgeable and fun and knew the route along with currents and wind patterns to a “T”! My husband and I would definitely do this again when returning to Moab again next spring! Thank you for a great time! We loved it!

We had the best time on the Colorado River - We went on the flatwater SUP tour in the morning and we loved it! Both of us were beginners but our guides Ramie and Shayan were very helpful, gave great instructions about safety and made us feel very safe on the water. The tour itself was perfect. We were lucky with the weather and our guides gave us interesting information and stories about the area and surrounding nature. And since we went down the river following the stream it was not very demanding in terms of strength, so it is definitely suitable for beginners. While we were on the water there was another big group of people on the water who were there with another company (not to say the name, but they work worldwide…) and they were jumping head first in shallow water which our guides warned us about, but their guides were not in sight nor seemed to care. I am very glad that we chose this tour and had a smaller group with two guides present who valued quality and safety over quantity. Especially both of our guides made this experience very special for us and we loved talking to them! If we ever get the chance to come back to Moab from Germany, we will definitely book another trip with Paddle Moab!

Great Views and a Relaxing Experience Down the River - I highly recommend Paddle Moab! The staff of this mom-and-pop business was helpful and kind- all the way from check-in and transporting us up river through helping us load back up to go to the storefront. The views were spectacular, weather was great, water was cold and refreshing, we learned some cool information about Moab, and our guide Ramie was so much fun to talk to as she guided us down the Colorado River! I recommend bringing a waterproof phone holder that allows you easy access to take photos along the way!
