Glenwood Canyon Half-Day Raft Trip in Colorado

Overview
If we only had two to three hours to spend on the water and wanted show our friends or family what it's like to experience the thrill of Class III Colorado whitewater rafting and the beauty of Glenwood Canyon, this would be the trip we'd take them on. And if we only had two hours because everyone had plans after the trip, well, we'd probably cancel them so we could all go rafting.

It's perfect for first-timers, families, and people who like experiencing life rather than Snapchatting it.

I have white water rafted for over 40 years but my wife had never been. The guides did a fantastic job of easing her mind and helping her have the best experience possible. The water was high and the river moving extremely fast. Our guide, Steve, did a great job of navigating through exciting rapids while missing some that were clearly a danger to the raft. We highly recommend Defiance for experienced, and beginner, rafters!

Fun for the whole family and an absolute amazing time on the river. We rafted with Jeremy our favorite guide but everyone that works at Defiance is so friendly and makes you feel like family. The owners have done a great job ensuring a memorable trip from the time you check in at the boathouse to the drive home on the bus. We come from southern cali every summer just to raft with Defiance because they are hands down the best! My teenage son and 4 year old daughter had a blast and we'll be back next year to raft like a local with Defiance.
