One of the best vacation experiences our family has had. Our guide, Joe, was the absolute best. Just fun to be around, but also very experienced.

Rafting day with Julio - *the* best guide in Colorado. My young son has not had the best experience with water sports, but Julio turned him around so dramatically, he now wants to be a guide when he gets older. We learned a lot about the area and laughed a lot about ourselves. I gotta say it was a good day. @mild2wildraft #AskForJulio
