Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for kids to go on this rafting trip?

A: No age limit! Kids as young as 6 can join the rafting trip. It's a great family activity! Just make sure they can fit in the life jackets provided. The gentle Class I–II rapids are perfect for little ones, and the guides are super experienced with children.

Q: How should I dress for the rafting trip? Is it chilly in the morning?

A: Dress in layers! Mornings can be a bit chilly, especially if you're paddling. Quick-dry shorts and a moisture-wicking shirt work great. Don't forget a hat and sunglasses, and water shoes are a must for the river. You'll probably get splashed a bit, so be prepared!

Q: What if the weather's bad on the day of the trip? Can we reschedule?

A: If the weather is unsafe, the guides will cancel the trip and you can reschedule for another date. They prioritize safety. Just be sure to check the weather forecast ahead of time, and they'll keep you updated if anything changes.

Thinking of gifting the half-day rafting trip in Moab!

I'm looking at this Castle Valley rafting trip as a gift for my sister's family. They love the outdoors but have never rafted before. It sounds amazing to float on the Colorado River and see all those red rocks! I’m a bit worried about how young her kids are (8 and 10). Can anyone share their experiences with this? Was it easy for kids? Also, what are the views like? Are they as epic as the photos?

Just got back from the rafting trip in Moab!

OMG, this rafting trip was incredible! We did the half-day Castle Valley float, and the scenery was just stunning. The guides were super knowledgeable about everything, from the geology to local wildlife. We even saw some eagles! I went with my partner and it was worth every penny. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a fun outdoor experience.
