Glenwood Canyon Half-Day Raft Trip in Colorado in Glenwood Springs booking from $70.00

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.

These guys really do know how to give you a good time. My wife was extremely nervous getting on the raft but our guides confidence and sensitivity towards her anxiety got her in the boat and from that moment on she was hooked. Ben, our guide, was totally in control of the raft and his crew (the guests) and with his commands and steering through the rapids gave us the tie of out lives. And when he saw my wife enjoying herself so much he even hit the rapids so she got soaked! He even made it look accidental! A very funny guy with a great sense of humour and superb knowledge of the canyon. This trip is a show! I'm not saying any more about him as his ego is quite large enough! Thanks Ben, great trip.

That's a great story! Thank you so much for this feedback. We're pretty keen on taking what we do seriously but never ourselves. Ben's a great example of this. And we're glad it showed for you and your wife. Take care! – Gregory

We thoroughly enjoyed our rafting trip. Our guide was friendly, funny, experienced and professional. It was a good first go for us as a family at white water rafting. We felt safe and we all agreed we want to go again when we get the opportunity.

Had loads of fun rafting with wife and three sons ages 9, 12, 17. The guides are extremely friendly and outgoing and good-spirited, making it all the more fun from start to finish (including the bus ride). They also do a lot of the heavy duty paddling. The only thing I would point out is that they request all their guests to keep their public conversations suitable to the ages of all guests. There was a group of rowdy young women in our group on the bus who held loud very inappropriate conversations including graphic descriptions and explicit language that made me cringe.

Thank you for the feedback, Daniel! It's great to hear you had a wonderful time out there on the river. And as the father of an eight-year-old, I can relate to the cringe. I appreciate you sharing that experience. We're always trying to find ways to improve the guest experience; families with young children being comfortably included is among our greatest priorities. Thanks again for circling back. Take care. And hopefully, we get to see you and the crew again before too long! – Gregory
