Warm sun on cool waters

Our guide Migs showed us a pleasant time as he lead us down the river. My family of 3 was paired up with a lovely couple from Boulder. We all enjoyed the scenic views in canyon along with some wildlife along the way. We all enjoyed the cool water on a nice warm Summer day. Migs guided us through the rapids with lower flow than normal and made my family want to do again on future trips to the area.

Best day!!!

Grace was our guide and she was fabulous! She was easily the hardest working girl on the river that day. She was strong and very personable, which made me feel like we were in good hands. Super knowledgeable and easy going. And props to our bus driver and all the other guides! Everyone was friendly and professional. Big love to American Adventure Expeditions!!

Good trip thru Brown's Canyon

The water level was lower than normal, but it was still a good trip. Our guide, Natalie, knew her way around the river and took good care of us. She was also friendly and upbeat.

Best Rafting Company - Hands Down!!

I’m sad that I can only give this trip a 5 bc it deserves so much more!! Jamo was our guide and if you are lucky enough to get him, just know you are in for a great time. My 8 y/o grandson was an “honorary guide” by the end of the trip. You have several choices of rafting companies in the area, but American Adventure Expeditions is the best!!

Operator response

WOW!! 🤩🌊 This review deserves more than 5 stars too! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We’re so grateful for your amazing words! 💙 Jamo will be absolutely thrilled to hear he helped make the trip unforgettable! 🚣‍♂️😎 We LOVE that your grandson became an honorary guide—sounds like we may have a future river pro on our hands! 😄🙌 Thank you for choosing AAE and for trusting us with such special family memories. We can’t wait to have you back for another adventure! 🌊🎉
