What an awesome day my husband, my 20 year old son, and I had! We started out at the Adventure Park. My son is an avid climber and I am a fraidy cat when it comes to heights! We both still were able to have an amazing time. Glenn got us started (our Trip Advisor booking for this activity told us it was a 9am start, nope: get there at 8:30) and then we had Scott help us the rest of the morning. They were both so supportive of me, and I really was able to enjoy the many elements of the park. Glen and Scott were also able to give my son and husband extra details on how to make their day the challenge that they were after. There are several different courses and elements that kept us plenty busy for the 3 hours.
Afterwards, we were provided lunch as part of our package. Fresh cooked brats, baked goods, chips, and a drink. Perfect break in our day! Many others were looking at our yummy lunch with jealousy: I recommend this package!
On to the 1/2 day raft trip. Our guide was Brad, and he was extremely knowledgeable of the river, the safety, and the area. He has been with this company for 5 seasons, and I felt very safe, yet still had a great time on the river. We chose the boat that you are more active with the paddling in the river. You also have an option to ask for a boat that is more passive with the paddling.
Both activities had plenty of water available, which is important in Colorado. Make sure to reapply your sunscreen and pay attention to the tips that the company gives you regarding clothing: it makes your day much more comfortable.
Again: this was a perfect summer day in Buena Vista!! I would strongly recommend this Park and Paddle Package!!
