My Granddaughter and I have been to class 3 and class 4 rapids so I was expecting a less then exciting run. I was wrong, the San Miguel river is fast and full of twists and turns. The speed and fun was constant! I believe I enjoyed that more than the others. You can also tell your friends” I went 24 miles down a wild river full of mountain snow melt) Worth the drive. And Joe was the best guide on the river. Knew the river better then Jay or Bella.

Our white water rafting experience down the Colorado River in UT was absolutely incredible, thanks to our guide, Nina! Her expertise, enthusiasm, and love for the outdoors made this adventure a blast. Nina's knowledge of the river, her passion for the environment, and her friendly nature created a warm and welcoming atmosphere. She ensured our safety, provided clear instructions, and kept us entertained throughout the trip. We highly recommend Nina as a white water rafting guide for an unforgettable experience!

We did an all-day trip with Hannah and it was just incredible. We did our whole family including a 9, 13, 14 year old and everyone had a blast. Hannah could not have been better. Nothing was too much trouble and she always had a smile on her face. Would definitely recommend the company and Hannah!

What a great experience! This was my kids (10 & 13) first whitewater rafting experience. Luckily the water was just high enough that they were still doing trips. Our Guide, Rio, was fantastic! He was so good with the kids and, because we were a smaller group, even taught our son how to steer the raft from the back. Highly recommend!

Hannah was our guide and she was awesome!! The river was somewhat low, which was expected this time of year, but we had a great time - mostly cat 2's and one or two cat 3s. This was a father son trip for my son that just graduated college. Just my son, Hannah and me in our raft. Hannah did a great job directing and guiding - only got semi stuck once, while the other rafts seemed to be stuck much more often since they had many more people. I would highly recommend doing this again - probably in June or early July - and definitely ask for Hannah!

We had a great time with Abby. She was knowledgeable and fun. Our boat had all the experiences they warn you about prior to going while giving you safety talks but we made it and had a good time through it all. The water is cold so I was certainly thankful for the wetsuit and booties. I would book with these guys again no doubt, they're a fun crew no matter who your guide ends up being.

My wife and I went on the full day rafting trip on the San Miguel River with our guide Rio. He was fun, experienced, and made our trip as fun as possible. We both had a blast! Rio made us feel safe but ensured we had a great experience both in terms of the rafting experience itself as well as the playful banter and conversation when things slowed down, which was not often! We would definitely recommend Mild to Wild, and ask for Rio to be your guide if possible. We have down dozens of trips over the years, and this ranks near the top. Great for first-timers as well as experienced rafters! Do it!

Cody was an amazing guide on our rafting day. The San Miguel was a fun ride thanks to Cody. He has a masterful control of the river and kept us humming along. I’d definitely do this rafting tour again.

This has been on our bucket list for quite some time, and Richard (our guide) made it really special! Fantastic guide!! The whole Mild to Wild team was so helpful answering questions about our options and what would work best for our family as we toured several places in the San Juans. Amazing service!

The whole family had a great day of rafting and swimming. Very family-friendly for kids ranging in age form 4.5-14. Our river guide Dean did an amazing job and offered a lot of great tips and info about the area’s history
