The half day family rafting was so much fun! Our family worked as a team paddling to guide our raft through the water, around rocks , and the rapids. Our guide Chrispy was funny, informative, and told us where to paddle to guide us safely through the water. The boys said the rapids were the best part of the trip. Highly recommend!

The guides on the river were awesome, Skylord, Sam, Toby, and Jessie were all great to work with! We really enjoyed our time on the water as well and meeting people from all over the US. Started out at the office a little rainy and cool, but stopped raining as soon as we put the rafts in the water. Great learning about some of the history of Durango. Took them up on the suggestion of Fam Burger as well, great burger place!!!
