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.

The river was running a bit higher and faster than last year, but that only added to the enjoyment. Our guide, Taylor, was incredibly knowledgeable about everything from the river and all of it's highlights and features and well as the rock formations and springs as well as local history and truly kept us engaged when we weren't paddling our best. My second trip and I'll be back. Defiance Rafting rocks (and I am a local).

Thank you, David! Hearing from locals is always appreciated. And hearing that we hit the mark for you and the crew is never taken for granted. Thank you for sharing. We look forward to seeing you at the Defiance Boathouse again soon! Take care and see you then ā€“ Gregory
