Great experience! From the first call to book to the end, customer service was top notch. All the guides were fun, funny and friendly. From age 6 to 70 everyone enjoyed the rapids. Our guide Sam was a true professional, knowledgeable and very interesting.

We just finished our amazing trip with Mild to Wild! We purchased the economy trip since we were all first timers and were shown an epic time with our awesome guide Trudy. She was informative, caring, and fun! You could tell that all the guides were experienced, but I am especially grateful for getting Trudy, who saw to it that we all had a great time, even my father-n-law who was crossing it off his bucket list. This is a must do adventure for anyone in the Durango area, or any of the additional trip locations offered. We will definitely recommend them to others and hope to return for a longer adventure soon. Very affordable and a great escape!!!
