My family had an awesome time. This was our first time rafting. Our group had 4 adults and one 9 year old. The water was cold but tolerable. Initially, I was worried about my 9 yr old participating but Axel was great; very personable, he gave thorough and concise instructions. Throughout our trip he was very knowledgeable about local history and the environment. I felt comfortable with his level expertise and competence. I would absolutely recommend Axel as your guide. I don’t remember the other guides names in the safety raft but they were great as well; the “twins” were entertaining.

Our family friendly trip is truly the gateway rafting experience to a life long addiction to whitewater! Glad y'all had a great experience with Axel, thank you for the review and recommendation!

The guides were great to hang out with and kept us safe. The money was definitely worth the two hours of fun we had in Durango. Our guide, David, was great!

Everybody is talking about inflation, but who is doing anything about it? Mountain Waters is according to Marisa, thank you Marisa!
