Our guides were amazing. We had three kids in our party ages 8-10 as well as some seniors. Everyone had a blast! This is an easy float. No previous rafting experience needed.

This is an amazing thing to go do around Durango. Our tour guide was Emma who was a phenomenal guide she had so many stories to tell. The community over at Mild to Wild is great everyone there was so kind. I definitely recommend this white water rafting tour to everyone.

We had a great time rafting with Dillon! He was fun and entertaining, and very patient with our boat with a lot of kids. We all had a lot of fun and my boys are already asking when we can go again.
