This is a very easy class 1 & 2 rafting trip. This is perfect for beginners or family that doesn’t want anything too rough. Kaelin, our guide, was sweet, informative and engaged with all the kids. She was knowledgeable and don’t let her size fool you, she can do her job. I would definitely do it again.
What a fabulous way to spend a morning. Was our first time rafting and our tour guide Kahlee (?) was excellent!!! Was sorry to see this tour end. The other guide (I'm so bad at names) was awesome too, and he shared informative stories with the entire group. Would recommend this for anyone. Thanks for the beautiful morning rafting trip in such beautiful country!!! Is definitely a must do if in the area.
My son and I had SO MUCH FUN on this rafting trip. We stopped at a natural hot spring and went cliff jumping (optional of course!). Our guide Johnny was awesome. We would absolutely book with this company again!
Downstream Adventures has a couple engaging, professional, entertaining guides. We went on a pretty calm float trip with a few rapids. We did stop near a cliff where we were invited to climb and then jump into the river. Watching was fun.
Earlier this month my family went on the 1/2 day Upper Colorado rafting trip. We had a large group, 11 people, ranging in age from 5 to 77. Everyone had a blast! Our guide Ody was phenomenal, helping make sure we all had a good time and made it safely down the river. Because we had some kids in our group they were able to fit us all in one boat, although we didn't all have paddles. The scenery was top notch, and it was just the right level of excitement. For those ready for a little more thrill, there is an optional cliff jump! Everyone was ready to go back another time and try the full day trip. If you're looking for a rafting experience, I'd highly encourage you to book with this family run business, and ask for Ody! (Another highlight from our trip, on the drive back to the shop, the driver spotted a black bear close to the road in the trees. We pulled over for a few minutes and everyone had a chance to spot the bear and watch it run through a meadow.)
Fun trip down river. Pretty calm water most of the way except for a couple small rapids. Would recommend if in area.
This was great trip for family! Ody’s an incredible guide who was knowledgeable, kept us safe, and made sure we had a ton of fun!
Our group did the afternoon Upper Colorado, which combines chill floating through gorgeous scenery and a handful of low-level Class III rapids. Dez was friendly and efficient checking us in, and our guide Ody was very knowledgeable about the wildlife, history, and surroundings of the river. We stopped at a cliff jumping spot and many people had a blast jumping off! Highly recommend for a relaxing but fun raft trip.
Great first time rafting a river trip! The Colorado River is beautiful! The guide was fun, lots of stories, was very good at being a guide! We loved this adventure! Can’t wait to do intermediate next time!
Amazing experience! The crew was top notch, the scenery gorgeous. Great experience for all ages. We will be back!!
