Half-Day Family Rafting in Durango, Colorado

Overview

Rafting through Durango is just as popular with the locals as it is the visitors. It’s the perfect mix of excitement for all ages, with the added charm of floating through an impossibly picturesque town. You’ll catch plenty of splashes while getting to sit back and relax on this free-flowing Rocky Mountain river.

Half Day rafting trips on the Lower Animas are incredibly popular for busy schedules. You'll get a couple hours on the water with the best rapid sections.

Plus, our guides are well-trained and absolutely love what they do. You’ll get a hoot out of them as much as they get a hoot out of running this river.

We had an exciting time on our rafting trip with Sam, Connor and Jake. Sam kept things lively with his humor and knowledge. We were in excellent hands.

Thank you so much for the 5 stars!! Sam, Connor, and Jake make a great team. I'm glad you all felt comfortable rafting on the Lower Animas with us :) Next time you come to Durango, we'd love to have you on one of our land tours or even a more intermediate rafting trip!

Body was an incredible guide and rafter. His knowledge of the area, jokes and rafting techniques made the trip most enjoyable and entertaining.
