We had Evan as a guide and he was an awesome guide! Very knowledgeable and easy to work with paired with a great sense of humor. He had us entertained the entire time. His ability to give steer us into having a rougher or easier time was perfect. If he is working that day....request him as a guide

Our hotel recommended Mild to Wild and we're glad they did! Olivia was wonderful and we all had a great time! Olivia handled every obstacle like a pro, she was friendly, knowledgeable and I'd definitely book another trip with Mild to Wild and with Olivia! All of the guides were friendly, informed us about all safety measures to help us all stay safe and they even offered some tips on local things to see or places to eat. Stop light joke: how do you get a rafting guide off your front step? Answer: tip them for the pizza. Back to the review...the scenery was fantastic, the gear was in great shape and they have every detail worked out so it's no stress for us vacationers!
