The overall service, photos and adventure was amazing. We went in May 2022, there was no option for that above. It was an amazing experience rafting the Animas river with y’all. Thank you. Darugars.

We were in town with a group of 9. Steve and Keena were our guides. They were great. If you have two rafts worth of family , Steve is an expert at splashing the other raft! Perfect when you are divided with teens in one raft and adults in the other. For some of us it was our first rafting trip. We had a great time. There were a few nice rapids for the beginners and the river was not crowded. Our guides were fun a pointed out things along the way. It was nice 2 hour excursion.
