Summary:
The company is great and our guide Scootie was terrific (loved surfing in the eddie). I had so much fun the week before on a work outing that I took 3 of our kids on July 4th - so much fun and with our guides safe. Another group with a different company in front of us had a medical emergency and those guides didn’t carry cell phones so our crew helped out. 10/10 can’t wait to go back again and thy the advanced trip.

Summary:
My daughter and I took a quick trip to Colorado and found RMWR to be the best choice for us. I am so glad we chose them. We took the intermediate trip and Oliver was our guide. He was absolutely fantastic. He was funny, personable and made our trip memorable. He likes to do extra-curricular(surfing) activities while he is out there, free of charge! We felt safe the entire time and would absolutely recommend rafting with RMWR and seeking Oli as your guide. If we are ever in the area, we will be back. Maybe take on the advanced trip.
