Great experience with The Adventure Company in Browns Canyon with Jake as our guide. - We had a great time with Jake as our guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and personable. The entire staff were great to work with. We did the full day float in August and there was plenty of water, rapids, and fun. The lunch fajitas were great and we would definitely raft with them again.

Great Day on the River! - Had a great day with our group on the Arkansas River with The Adventure Company and our guide Kara. Kara made sure we had safe and fun day on the river. Kara was very personal and it was a pleasure to be in her raft. There were a lot of companies on the river, but I would definitely go back to The Adventure Company and ask for Kara.

Best white water rafting experience for our family of 4! - Jake and Simon helped us with our first white water rafting adventure and it did not disappoint! They were so helpful with great instructions and then cooked us a great fajita lunch! The rapids were just enough adventure for our first time and we will definitely be back!

An enjoyable adventure! - We had an entire family on our Colorado trip and rafting was the highlight! All the guides were wonderful to work with and especially ours, Brody. He gave us an adventure to remember but was always safe and considerate of our group. He also provided many stories and humor along the way. He even sang us a song! Thank you Brody for showing us a great time!!

The BEST experience! - This past weekend, my husband and I rafted through Browns Canyon on the Arkansas River with The Adventure Company and had an AMAZING time. If you’re in the Buena Vista area or are planning a trip to CO, I highly recommend checking them out! Their guides were knowledgeable, we had an awesome lunch on the river, and they had all the equipment we needed for a great day. Thanks, Kotty, Brodie, and Shayna!

Adventure in beautiful place with great rapids! - Our family, of 5- boys ages 10, 12 & 14 had a wonderful experience with our guide, Shayna. Despite one scary incident, where my 10-year-old leaned out of the boat and fell into the water, we all had a wonderful time. Wile the fiasco could’ve easily been avoided, they were able to retrieve him quickly and avoid any issues. Needless to say… We all remembered to lean into the boat from that moment forward. The shore-side lunch was great! The guides were all super experienced and professional, but really made it a ton of fun! This was our second white water trip this year, our other was in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, and while they were both amazing, this one seemed to be even more technical and beautiful. I highly recommend! This is a smaller outfitter and their crew is super passionate about their trade. Great adventure! And…for any mother reading this, our dicey chapter was totally my son’s fault. Great way to learn to follow the guide’s instructions! 😳
