Had a wonderful day on the Arkansas river with our guide Dan. Fun family day from ages 11 to 66 smiles from everyone. Everyone we spoke to at River Runners was kind, informative, and funny too. Can't wait to come back next year.

My family and friends booked on overnight with Brown Canyon Rafting. What an amazing experience and worth every penny. Amy was our guide and Tim was our cook. Not only our cook but hauled our gear to a great camping site. We were served appetizers, dinner and breakfast the next morning. Such friendly people. They made our mini vacation very relaxing. Amy guided us through the rapids and was a great teacher! She was very patient with us. We are already looking to next year and will request both Amy and Tim. Tip your guides, they work hard and deserve it.

I must be honest, I was very nervous leading up to this trip, as I've heard so much about the high levels and record river conditions. Once I got there the staff was so professional and geared us up and put my mind right at ease. Dan was our guide and I couldn't have been happier about it - he was hilarious, informative, and above-all a professional. I never felt unsafe while he was calling the shots, which allowed me to have the time of my life. The views of the Browns Canyon are amazing, and the full day was exactly the right amount of time to be on it. The lunch break was essential, and quite tasty. Can't wait to hit them back up next year!
