Booked a half day trip with Mild to Wild for us and our friends. We all had a great time! Vinny was our guide and he did an awesome job! He gave us a little history of Durango, told some jokes, and of course guided us through the fun rapids with precision. We’ll be sure to book with Mild to Wild and Vinny when we come visit again!

John was our guide! And he was great in every way… fun, social, knowledgeable and passionate about the river. There were only three of us on his trip and he had a genuine ease about himself with good sense of humor.

We had a blast! Caleb was our guide and he really made the experience for us. My 6 year old loved it. Caleb read the boat, the terrain, and our capabilities impeccably. His jokes were awesome too!
