Family fun - Great day on the river. Only a few class 3’s due to late in the season, but still very fun and our guide, Michael, was fantastic.

Wonderful experience for a family! - Excellent ! We had kids from age 8 to 13 on this trip. Everyone had a great time! Our guide, Jack, was wonderful ! He took photos of our family, stopped to let us swim along the way, and kept us entertained with bits of information and fun stories! Glenwood canyon is one of the most beautiful canyons in the country. I would highly recommend experiencing it while rafting down the Colorado River with Glenwood Adventure CO.

- Great way to celebrate our daughter's 30th birthday! Glenwood Adventures made the rafting trip easy to book and the electronic communication was fantastic. When we arrived at the rafting company we received a warm welcome and were immediately impressed by the cleanliness of the facility and the equipment (helmets, life vests and booties). The team were focused on safety and educated us with humor. Elaine, our guide, was fantastic! She was knowledgeable, personable, and made our trip down the Colorado memorable and fun. I highly recommend Glenwood Adventure Company!

Great white water rafting experience! - Great time on the Colorado River with our expert and friendly guide Kahti. After getting all the necessary equipment provided by the outfit, we rode a bus up to the Shoshone area and launched from there. After about 20 minutes of rapids, the rest of the trip was more relaxed with time to take in the beautiful scenery. Kahti shared some interesting history and information about the area. Would definitely do it again!

Loved it, we will be back! - This was our second outing with this company and have had fantastic experiences both times. They are great to work with, respond immediately, are extremely organized and safety conscious and have a GREAT friendly staff. We did the Shoshone class 2/3 float and absolutely loved it! Becca was our guide and we highly recommend her, she made sure we had a great float, thank you Becca! The scenery was beautiful and it was an amazing day! We will return again.
