Join us for our Full-Day and Half-Day Fisher Towers rafting — the must-do Moab Colorado River adventure to include in your Utah vacation. Towering red-rock cliffs, the iconic sandstone spires of Moab’s Fisher Towers, fun splashy rapids, and Moab’s most experienced guides make this our most popular run year after year.
Perfect for families, first-timers, and anyone who loves stunning scenery with a side of adventure, this trip blends the best of Moab rafting: lively rapids, calm spots for swimming and water fights, and unbeatable views that have been featured in thousands of productions including films, TV and commercials.
Since 2003, we’ve run only small paddle rafts (maximum 8 guests per raft) — the most engaging, “premium” way to raft the Colorado. Our hand-picked guides combine expert river skills, knowledge of geology and history, and a knack for keeping the fun going all day into one unforgettable experience. Come see why Red River Adventures is Moab’s go-to rafting outfitter.

We did the 1/2 day Fisher’s Towers rafting trip. Erin was our guide and she was FABULOUS! My husband, boys (16 & 14), and I loved it. The 1/2 day was a nice amount of time to enjoy the river and the rapids, and then we still had time to do other things in the afternoon.

We booked the Fisher Towers full day rafting at Red River Adventures. What a great day it was!
After a warm welcome we drove to the launch platform. This bus ride was already amazing. Great scenery and amusing stories from Josh, one of the guides.
We were divided over 4 boats. my wife, 2 daughters and I came in the raft with guide Grace. Great girl, thanks for the nice trip!
The trip was a combination of lazy drifting with the flow and action at the rapids. We got quite wet a few times!
The guides served a great lunch. Highly recommended trip!

My daughter and I spent my 60th birthday with the gang at Red River Adventures. We did the full day rafting trip and had the time of our lives. It was so much fun I highly recommend it to anyone. The staff was phenomenal and the views from the river were unlike anything we’ve ever seen in our lives. However our tour guide Molly really needs to work on her jokes. And you can only believe about 10% of her stories. She made the trip so much fun, I can’t thank her enough. Next time we are in Moab we are going rappelling with them. I believe Molly said I’d get a discount on the next trip. But I’m not sure whether to believe her or not?
Thanks again Molly and the staff for a great time.

We had the best morning on the water with Red River! We did the half day rafting trip on the Colorado through the canyon. The scenery was amazing, our guide Ryan (and all the guides) was great, we had lots of time for swimming, and it was a great intro into whitewater for my younger son. Top-notch organization!
