We made the decision to go rafting kind of last minute while on vacay in the Durango area. And we are so glad we did! The Mild to Wild group was awesome. All steps and employees were very professional and helpful. And our guide, Dylan, was super awesome! My family of three (me, my husband & our 11 yr old son had never rafted before so we had a little apprehension going into it. But Dylan calmed any concerns and made the whole experience so fun. Our son said after all the other activities we did on this trip, the white water rafting was his ultimate favorite! We all came away wanting to do it again right away. You'll have a gear experience if you go with Mild to Wild!
