This Fell Short of White Water Rafting

I have been white water rafting before and this was not white water rafting, it was a floating trip down the river in a raft. Our guide did her best but there was nothing to get excited about here. I was disappointed.

Great experience

Santo was our guide and he was fantastic! He was full of fun facts along the land and was so great about getting pics of us and scenery. He shared them with us when we got back from the trip.

Guides were friendly and informative. An enjoyable trip down the river. At a specific area along our way, they encouraged us to get out and swim in the river, which we did. The river was cold and I would encourage quick dry clothes.

10/10 experience!

We had so much fun!!! This was a very very easy ride down the river. It was nice to just float down and learn more about Moab. Lauri, was our guide and he was awesome. Very knowledgeable, super cool guy. Had great conversations. Our fav part was jumping out and riding through the rapids with our life vest.

Great time. River was low but we knew that going into it. Jayden kept us entertained the entire time. We had fun, learned some and stayed cool. Give that girl the parking spot!

Experience of a lifetime, and YES there are Black Bears in the desert 😉

Shawn was an excellent guide!! We had an amazing time and actually saw a Black Bear, two Bald Eagles a Magpie and Herons. It was also pointed out to us the area that many westerns were filed including Horizon One. Then we laid eyes on the Butte that Blaze of Glory video by Bon Jovi was filmed on for the movie Young Guns 2. All in all I rate the experience as a top notch adventure that everyone should experience. Oh ya and ask for the Navy Vet, Shawn for your guide-class act

Amazing! River was rocky,...

Amazing! River was rocky, but calm, a lot of history & site seeing from the river was better than being on top of the world! Shayan was great! A lot of funny stories but still a lot of historical stories!

Wonderful experience on...

Wonderful experience on the Colorado River! Our guides Kenny and Shaun were very personable and excellent at navigating the water. We were able to swim at various points and also float the rapids at a safely designated spot. Truly enjoyed and would highly recommend to all families looking for a great time rafting on the river in Moab!
