Our Family of 6 just got back from Colorado and we had a full day of river rafting! We had such an amazing time and I can not say enough good things about River Runners! Our guide John was amazing! We had some difficult situations because of the river being so low and he handle it like a pro! Our 18 yr old kids had an absolute blast! We will definitely be using River Runners again on our next trip and can’t wait to request John! Thank you John was giving us the info on Skyline Drive...you were right, it was an amazing view!!

We went on the full day with the family of four (10&12 boys) and they loved it. We all loved it. We had Mikey as our guide and he was full of wit and banter along with some words of wisdom for the boys. Highly recommend from some of the other rafting tours I have been on.

This was an awesome experience. They gave us a safety briefing & provided life jacket, raincoat & helmet. Our guide for the day was Dan K. I’m so happy we had Dan. He really seemed to know a lot about the river, the area & he was an excellent guide. There was a stop along the river where you could jump off a high rock into the river & cool off. Almost everyone did that. The next stop was for lunch, which was provided. Going down the rapids there was a photographer taking our pictures as we were smiling and laughing & getting wet! I was extremely happy to see that that were taking Covid 19 pandemic seriously. We had to wear masks in their buildings & on the bus ride back to the home point. I highly recommend River Rafters to everyone!
