Great views away from the crowds - The views from the river were awesome. You don’t want to miss out on this experience if you stay in Moab area. Water was cool, but a great way to cool off. Lunch was provided to eat picnic style on the side of the river. The guide Dean was very easy going and great with the 100 questions we had about the canyon. The trip is definitely on the milder side for rapids, but makes up for it with the view! Would recommend full day to see the deeper side of the canyon.

Awesome day on the river! - We had such a great time! We did the full day rafting trip with my wife, my 2 kids, and my in-laws. Gavin was our guide at Mild to Wild and he made the experience so memorable. Gavin told us stories and jokes and has a ton of river rafting experience. He is very knowledge about MOAB and the surrounding areas. During the trip we rafted through rapids, swam in the river, stopped for lunch, saw spectacular views, and also saw a bald eagle and even dinosaur foot prints. We would go back on this excursion again and I recommend requesting Gavin as your tour guide!

Life changing Adventure! - What an amazing trip! Mild to Wild made booking easy. The guides made 4 days of camping very enjoyable (I'm not a big camper). They really worked well as a team preparing us for the adventure, cooking great food and really taking care of all our needs on the trip. They do so many little things to make a family trip of 7 seem almost effortless. I can't do justice to the beauty of the Ladore Canyon. You have to see it for yourself. Life changing adventure that all kids (and adults) should experience! Thank you Jackson and team.

Rafting on the Colorado - Our family had a wonderful time on this raft ride along the Colorado River with Ashley. This was our 1st raft ride along this stretch of the River - east of Moab. What a BLAST!! Our guide was great with directing our raft through the rapids. Spectacular views and scenery. We would definitely choose this ride again with 'Mild to Wild.

Amazing Views and Great Guide (Sean) - We rafted with Sean. He was an awesome guide - very knowledgeable / shared a lot of interesting information along the way. We are two adult couples but it would also be fun as a family. The shuttle drivers and whole staff in Moab very great. Don’t miss it.
