This was our first time rafting along with children from ages of 5 to 13. We were concerned it would be too rough or not rough enough. The kids had a blast. It was a perfect mix of activity intermixed with rest. The guides are friendly and helpful. We took a private boat and it was a perfect experience for us. The photo package captured how much fun we had on the trip. There's many selections out there - but Wild West is the one to choose.
