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.

This is a must do for all of my visiting guests. I did a trip in July and then again in September. The river is always changing and having the experienced guides at Defiance takes out the worry and puts in the fun! Best rafting company in Glenwood!

Thank you for circling back, Ava. And for double-dipping with us! We don't take for granted that you entrusted us with your river experience as you show-and-shared the Valley with your visiting guests; we appreciate the privilege! Take care and hopefully, we get to see you (and maybe some more visitors?) soon! ā€“ Gregory

Our trip being in the slower part of the season, we were treated amazing by all of the Defiance Rafting staff. One of us was a first time rafter and the staff did a great job to ease the jitters. Our guide was Ben who was absolutely awesome and made sure there is never a dull moment. I would strongly recommend going rafting with Defiance to anyone and everyone and have memories for a lifetime! 5stars hands down!

Thank you for the feedback on your late-season raft trip with Ben! Glad to hear the first-timer was made comfortable; it's an excellent stretch of whitewater for the newly initiated. Take care and we hope to see you again! ā€“ Gregory
