Wonderful family rafting fun for all ages! TLAU was the best guide. He worked great with ALL ages of our group of 8 people from teenagers to the adults. TLAU helped to make it an enjoyable trip for everyone. The staff was great to work with and very organized through all aspects!

The Animas River was high and fast for early June. We all got real wet in the rapids and managed to have a few water fights with other rafts. Our guide Dillion was Great! He prepared us for the challenges and knew his way around this river! He's a real Pro! When we come back to Durango Colorado we're doing it again!!
