Most of the pictures you see will be at the beginning of the rafting where you hit a few rapids and where their camera guy takes the pics. Did we have fun? We did but a good half of the time is spent in boredom where you literally float down calm sections of the river. As we passed Glenwood we wanted to jump out and swim to shore because we felt totally done with it. This trip is great for little kids and the elderly. The reason for 3 stars is that I was informed this trip would be an intermediate level rafting trip. FAR FROM IT. I was told we would experience level 4 rapids. Not even close. And I was told a "half day adventure." Not much adventure. In addition, you are bussed about 15 minutes away to the starting point and prior to boarding the bus you are forced to wear your life jacket which they tighten to a point where you can barely breathe. I didn't like the bus ride with the life jacket on. Then you have to help carry the boats and paddles from the trailer to the shore. For the good: Great job to the guides explaining the rules and safety. A big shout out to Cullen our guide on the boat who did an excellent job educating us all about some of the history along the Colorado river. He pointed out many things. He also gave our 2 youngest a chance to Captain the raft using his oars at the back of the boat. He did a great job and received a healthy tip. The business has some improvements to make. I cannot recommend.

We had a great time! Due to a mudslide, our route had to be reworked, and the staff did their best to make sure we understood and they worked hard to ensure a great alternate float!!
