Here's to Hunter! - We had an incredible time - it was our first time in Utah and our first paddle boarding experience! Thanks to our tour guide, Hunter, who made us feel safe and secured but also fun, professional and knowledgeable with the history of the area. Thanks, brother! Ramon & Cassie

Highlight of Trip to Utah - We went on the Splish n Splash tour with Santos and Hunter in June. The weather started out crummy with high winds but both guides were well prepared with tips and tricks for getting down the river. They were focused on customer safety and enjoyment of the trip. We spent a week hiking in Utah and this was our last adventure of the trip. It was the highlight-such a beautiful view and amazing experience. The rapids were fun for all ability levels and Santos and Hunter made sure everyone had a successful trip. Highly recommend!

Two great tours - We took two tours with Paddle Moab during our vacation to Utah. We did the splish and splash SUP tour on the Colorado River. The scenery through the river gorge was amazing. The water was running at moderate levels and it was difficult to stand on the boards through the rapids, but it was easy to sit down and get through. The water was cold and refreshing after several hot days in Southern Utah. The Medieval Chamber canyoneering tour with Nate was the highlight of our entire trip. The tour starts up in the Sand Flats Recreation Area where we hiked to the first of two rappels, the first into Medieval Chamber, and the second at Morning Glory Bridge. Then we hiked the Grandstaff Trail (downhill) to the parking lot at the Colorado River. The rappels were thrilling and the hike was beautiful and relatively cool from the shade and the creek running through the canyon.

A unique way to experience Moab! - Super fun! Teal, our guide, was friendly, informative and genuine. We learned lots about the ecology and history of the area. That is, when we weren't in the Colorado River!! Be prepared to get wet. Turns out that the Colorado River is cold in April (even for Canadians)!

A Moab must! - We had a great time on the river. What an amazing way to take in the beautiful landscape of the Moab area and the Colorado River. The Splish and Splash tour was the perfect combo of flatwater for me and rapids for the teens. Cole was professional and knowledgeable (about flora, fauna and local history of the canyon). I appreciated how he let the boys have fun while maintaining safety on the water. Would 100% recommend a tour with Paddle Moab.

What an amazing experience! - Had a wonderful paddle board experience with Paddle Moab! Santo was our guide for the day. We also had a bonus guide Juan (Santo’s Chihuahua) for the day as well. My husband is at times uncomfortable with water and Juan did a great job of keeping him calm and at ease. Juan also took some amazing photos of us and airdropped them to my phone when we were done for the day. He definitely went above and beyond! Could not recommend this company more! When we travel back to Moab we plan to do their all day white water rafting trip. Definitely book with this company, you won’t be disappointed!

Best part of our Moab trip - My kids all agreed this was the best part of our Moab vacation and we did A LOT...including rafting and canyoneering. I have a 21, 13, and twin 10 year olds and I was a little nervous the splish and splash would be a little too much for the 10 year olds. Our guide was great in teaching us all how to navigate through the rapids and made sure we had fun even in the calm parts of the river, teaching the kids tricks on the paddle boards. This was so much fun and I'm so glad we decided to do it!
