This rafting trip was awesome! Trey made the experience that much more enjoyable with his jokes and his knowledge about the river and the town of Durango. I’ve been on other rafting trips years ago and none of them compared to this one! I will for sure come back to Mild To Wild if I’m ever back in the Durango area.

Emma was the bomb as a guide. She made it enjoyable and gave us great history facts. Would take the 3 hour trip down the river next time as long as she could be our guide.
