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.

Radd Brad was an entertaining and skilled guide. The canyon is scenic and beautiful. the first half of the ride is intense and fun. The second half is relaxing pleasant. When we go back I want to take the ride again but I think we'll take the Shoshone x2 run.

Thanks for circling back! B-Rad is as solid as they get; glad to hear you think so too. And yes, the Double Shoshone would be an excellent choice for the next round! Thanks again! Take care ā€“ Gregory

Thanks for circling back, Foran and Fabiano crew! It's awesome to hear you had a great time out there on Defiance's Glenwood Canyon Half-Day with Ben. But being who he is, we're not at all surprised. Thanks for joining us and hopefully we get to see you again before too long! Take care ā€“ Gregory

We had a great time rafting in Glenwood Canyon with Defiance Rafting!! Our guide, Taylor, was awesome! She knew the river as well as lots of local history and information. The views of Glenwood Canyon were breathtaking - it was a great way to see the river. We would highly recommend rafting with Defiance!! šŸ’§ā˜€ļø
