This was our 3rd time rafting but first in CO. My wife and two young teenage daughters and myself were the only ones in the raft with Amanda. I was a bit unsure how well we would do but Amanda was fantastic. She was a great guide and keep the conversation appropriate for the trip. Controlled guidance when we needed it and good humor when she wasn't making us paddle "Together". Highly recommend this trip and this group of guides. We had a good conversation with many of the guides on the bus trip and they were all fantastic. Don't waste time looking for a trip, book ART.

Our guide Jack was great!! We were beginners and we felt safe and well directed the whole time! Jack was funny, engaging and the scenery was amazing! He left quite the impression on my oldest daughter. If we ever visit Colorado again, we will definitely be back!
