My guide was knowledgeable and told me where to keep my feet so I deserved when I fell overboard lol. I’ve been rafting before, but you can tell everyone that works here. Loves their job and that’s what made my experience. This was a date idea I had gotten from TikTok and it was totally worth it! If you haven’t done it, make sure you doPosted on Bradley (BradleyG)May 28, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve been rafting quite a few times in multiple countries, but my 19 year old son had never been before and while in Colorado I booked us a last minute trip down Browns Canyon. We had a great time! It was a little slow for me, but it was perfect for my son’s first whitewater rafting experience … not too slow and not too fast, and trust me when I say I’ve been too fast once or twice 😉 Our guide Fin was awesome. Besides being very knowledgeable about every rapid we were about to hit, he was just a good spirited, fun young man to travel down the river with. We also really enjoyed the beach on the river afterwards… very nice beach! The restaurant had very good food, and it made for just an all around excellent experience. It was a great way to end the day. Hey Fin, next time we’re doin’ Numbers together! BradleyGPosted on Sarah RobertsMay 25, 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
