My mom and I wanted to do a white water rafting trip, but her tennis elbow made her nervous to do an intense trip that required her to paddle all the time. I'm a little more adventurous and wanted something more than floating, so we did a half day trip with class I and II rapids. The trip was easy... More

We had an awesome time. Our family of four all enjoyed the entire experience. We completed the day-long trip. It was my husband and I as well as our children, daughter (10) and son (7). Since the river was at a record level, and running very fast, AVA added a couple of miles so as not to "short change" our... More

We booked in advance of arriving in Colorado. This was our first rafting experience. We have a 5 and 7 year old and they both had a great time. My husband is loving sharing with everyone how he jumped off a 20ft. rock into the chilly water. The Upper Colorado River 1/2 day trip was just right for our first... More

We booked the night before and was just over an hour drive from Breckenridge.... Gorgeous drive. Our tour guide Ken as well as all the other... More

We wound up on a full day trip with the guide all to ourselves. The water was very high from snow melt but sights unmatched. The guide was very friendly and great interaction geared to younger kids (7 & 10). Can't say enough good. Scenic views - beautiful mountains - bald eagles- what else is there to say?

My teenage son and i just returned from our Colorado vacation and I wanted to write and say that i was glad I choose AVA. I didnt want crazy rapids, but to make it more exciting for my son, we decided to get rent our own inflatable kayaks and join the after rafters. Forrest , Michele and Matt were knowledgeable... More

We chose AVA for our family's first rafting trip ever for two reasons; 1) their family float fit well for our 5-year-old daughter's anticipation and skill and 2) they appeared most capable of showing us a good time. Forrest Kirk and his Kremmling outpost did not disappoint. They delivered as promised online and more! We had a great time, especially... More
