What a great experience. Chicken was a Great guide who shared a wealth of local knowledge. If you have young children this is the trip to take, our 2 year old granddaughter had a blast, Chicken knew just how to navigate the river to allow her a great experience. And thank you to the owner Thomas for allowing us this experience and getting us in this week. This will be on our list when we return again.

This is a perfect trip for anyone with small children or your first time. My 8 year old wanted more but it was just right for my 4 year old. Our guide Dutch was great with the kids making it a fun experience.

Scenic stretch of wide river. Hit a few sets of rapids that were very maneuverable, especially with the guide’s assistance. The trip was just long enough to experience rafting while still able to enjoy other activities the same day.

We had an awesome time on the Colorado River with Whitewater rafting, LLC. Not knowing how our 8 year old daughter would like it, we had booked a short, mild float. We all loved it so much that we extended our time to a half day trip while still on the river. Our guide, Larry, was absolutely amazing. He was great with everyone on the raft and very knowledgeable of the river and the Glendwood Springs area in general. Everyone in the office and all of the guides that we interacted with were extremely friendly and a pleasure to chat with. We had purchased the photo package in advance and the pictures did not disappoint. If we are ever in the Glenwood area again we will most definitely be taking another rafting trip with Whitewater rafting.

This was 2+ hours on a gentle trip down the river. There were a few rapids for some fun and excitement, but mostly we went downstream and admired the majestic canyon while the guide pointed out some points of historical and geologic interest. There was a 4-year-old in our raft who had a great time. Check-in was very easy - you just go to their site, park your car, lock your phone etc. and give them the keys. You are bussed to the put-in spot and bussed back after. They have a staff photographer who takes some shots that are available for purchase later. The staff were all friendly, helpful and enthusiastic. I really don't have any suggestions for improvement for the company.
