Worth it and a great group! - The water was high in May so a little calmer than other times a year (so we were told). This was a fun and amazing part of our trip to Moab. We did not want to have a crazy amount of white water and this was perfect, some calm beauty yet enough rapids to add excitement. Annie was a fabulous guide! She shared local knowledge of area and pointed out the sites to see including a bald eagle's nest (the eagle was perched on a branch watching us too). She gave huge value to our experience. Great company, easy to work with, provides all you need for a fun and safe time.

Great family fun! - This trip was great for our family! Claudia was our guide and she was very knowledgeable about the history and beautiful scenery of the area. The float was easy and relaxing with a few exciting moments of mild rapids, not too wild, just enough! Thanks to the great team at Mild to Wild, we had a great day on the river!

Family adventure on the Colorado River - We got caught in a freak storm but our guide, Claudia, kept calm and focused and delivered safely through to the end. The entire team of guides was amazing to help get everyone warmed up and taken care of. Would it even be fair to review the actual trip, nope, because no one else is ever going to have one like ours. Would I go again? Yep! We would go tomorrow!

Highly recommend! - We did a kayaking tour with Sam, who was an awesome guide. Sam coached us on how to handle the rapids (which were mild) and taught us a lot about the geology and history of the area along the way. Views were incredible, and we saw blue herons and a bald eagle. Our driver Miles was also a great source of information. I would highly recommend this activity, especially for families!
