Just did the Browns Canyon rafting and it was epic!

I took my family rafting on the Arkansas River last week. We did the Browns Canyon half-day trip and it was a blast! The rapids were exciting, but not too intense, which was perfect for my kids (ages 8 and 10). The scenery was gorgeous too—lush greenery everywhere! Definitely worth the price, and we got to use their wetsuits and jackets which made it comfortable. We’re thinking of going again next summer!

Considering Browns Canyon for a gift—any thoughts?

I’m looking to buy the Browns Canyon rafting experience as a gift for my cousin's family. They’ve never been rafting before, and I think this would be a perfect introduction! Has anyone done it recently? How was the experience and logistics for parking? Just want to make sure it’s a good idea!
