The water was a little low (late in season) but our guide did a great job of getting us through it and making it fun.

We had a great time rafting with our guide Don! He was the best! He engaged with the kids and gave them a great first rafting experience! They can’t wait to go again. He was very knowledgeable about Durango and shared information about landmarks along the river.
