When you book with Durango Rivertrippers, you gain exclusive access to private areas that no other company can reach. We’ll take you to our secluded 25-foot waterfall, located on a historic mining claim from the early 1900s. Our Jeep trail tours are unmatched in the area! Keep in mind this is a "Jeep Tour", it is bumpy, bouncy and you can get dirty. Climb aboard our “open-air” vehicle, or a Jeep Wrangler if conditions require, and set off into the breathtaking 'crown jewel' of the San Juan Mountains. Expect a thrilling ride as we navigate rugged terrain to showcase the most stunning landscapes Durango has to offer. Our 4-hour Jeep tours are designed to maximize your adventure while leaving you plenty of time to explore more of our many other activities. Please note that the terrain can be bumpy, adding to the excitement of the journey. If you prefer a smoother experience, we recommend checking out our alternative tours.
