Oh my goodness!! Where do I start? My family of 5 (ages 17 to 50) had a fantastic time rafting! Everyone was so kind from the moment we arrived to the time we left. The guides were welcoming, funny, informative and made the trip so much fun! Sarah, our guide, and Noah (the guide for another raft at the same time) made our rafting trip a blast!! Also-a bonus is that the owner takes photos of you along the route and you can purchase all photos at the end for just $20 (all of them airdropped right to your phone!). This trip was more than we could have asked for!! Thank you Red Canyon rafting trips! If you are considering a rafting trip— just book it! It was awesome!

Beautiful canyon!! Great experience from start to finish! Warm weather and cold water, yes you will get wet! Rapids weren’t too rough, but enough to be fun. We had a wonderful guide named Noah. Purchased a great set of photos taken from above the canyon by the other team members. $20, a must have because it’s hard to take pictures when you are on the water.

The staff is super personable and knowledgeable. Our guide was very nice and knew where to guide the boat so we got the best rapids.

Really good fun! Capable and safety conscious guide. Created a relaxed and friendly atmosphere amongst the group. Beautiful views and a great way to enjoy the scenery. Thoroughly enjoyed the 4hr trip and would definitely recommend jumping in the river for a swim! Go on do it!😀 it's not THAT cold!

Sara was a great guide! It was our 1st time water raft and my daughter is 11. They taught us the basics and we made it through a level 3 without incident. Highly recommended this tour

A very nice trip down the river with Noah as our guide. He was very informative and had funny stories. Mike also shared a lot of information in the van on our way to the launching area. A great adventure.

Fun way to spend the morning. A very relaxed and smooth check in process. Our guides should have side gigs as comedians, they were hilarious. Doesn't take long to go 7 miles with the river running full with snow melt.

We booked a white water rafting experience months in advance only to find out when we arrived for the tour that their system over booked and they did not have the staff to complete the tour. I was told I would be reimbursed on my credit card.
