We had a fabulous time canyoneering with my family (8/9 year old kids). Sam and Mary were our guides for the Bow and Arrow 1/2 day hike. They pointed us to nearby attractions, discussed safety but most importantly showed us a great time! We appreciate their patience (even in the heat!). Thank you

Our guide Mary was excellent! Very knowledgeable, kind, and easy to get along with. It felt just like another day hanging out at the crag in a surreal environment. Mary was so thoughtful in her instruction to newbies and seasoned climbers in the group. Gave 1:1 attention to everyone and helped us stay curious throughout the process! 10/10 would crag with Red River again!

Great experience! The team was very nice and helped our group get to know each other and get over that initial awkwardness. Our guide was Emily and she was phenomenal, super fun, and made the trip more fun with raft activities while also keeping us safe. I’d definitely book another trip with red river!

Guides were great and the bus driver dave was super cool! Only note, would recommend going on a year with either more water, or earlier in the season (late spring, early summer) for best results!

We would highly recommend Red River for a Colorado River rafting trip, with family and friends. Erin was a very exciting and fun person to be with on the trip! We will be back! Thanks Red River.

Our family has Savannah as our guide, and she did an excellent job at entertaining us! The rapids were low this time of year, so I'd suggest going earlier in the summer. The boat experience was lax and the staff were great!

Exceptional professionalism. Our guide Nate was fabulous with our family group, including our 8 year old twin girls. He took extended time with each one explaining the operation and safety features for each belay. He spoke softly and patiently with each girl as if her safety and concerns were the most important thing in the world to him. Never rushed. Never impatient. Each girl took more than 10 minutes to take those first few steps backward off the edge of the cliff--and when they did it was because of the confidence he instilled within them. Their beaming faces and sense of accomplishment were unlike anything we could create on our own. Nate helped create for us what will be a fond a life-long memory for our family. Thanks, Red River Adventures !

We had an amazing day rafting with Red River. A big thanks to all of the staff, especially our guide Jonathan. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and extremely accommodating to our family, especially our two kids. We learned fun raft games as well as interesting facts and history about the area, all while enjoying some fun rapids and a lot cooling off in the river.

The Utah School of Deaf and Blind had a wonderful experience Canyoneering with Adam and Rock Climbing with Nate. They were very accommodating to the needs of our students and staff. When the students asked what their favorite activity was during their week long adventure camp in Moab their response was, "Canyoneering!" That was music to my ears. Thank you for a great experience.

We had a wonderful time rafting, so much so that we went back a 2nd time! Our guide Genna was very friendly and knowledgeable of the area. Water was not too crazy, and we were able to get out of the raft and swim. The communication and instructions were clear & the views were spectacular. Would definitely recommend!

We had an excellent time courtesy of Mary, Jonathan, and Adam. We did Long Bow with Mary and we felt extremely safe and left thinking we could repel anywhere. Then we went white water rafting with Jonathan and although there were not a lot of rapids he introduced some games and made it a blast. Last we finished with Chamisa Canyon with Adam and it was amazing. Adam was an amazing photographer and we had a blast. Definitely recommend Red River to anyone traveling to Moab.

We had three awesome adventures with Red River on our trip to Moab. We had Mary for the Bow and Arrow canyoneering experience and it was awesome. She was great teaching skills needed to stay safe and enjoy the morning. We went rafting with Jonathan that afternoon and he made everyone in our boat have a great trip, teaching us about the river and surrounding area and playing games with us throughout the adventure. Our last experience was canyoneering with Adam. We did the Chasima canyon experience which included a lot of fun scrambling and repelling and he made the day fun, exciting and taught us a lot about the area. All three were an amazing experience! Thank you!!!

We had an amazing time on our all-day rafting trip! Our group was two adults and three kids (ages 14, 12, and 7), and it was the perfect mix of excitement and fun for all of us. Our guide, John, was the best—funny, knowledgeable, and made sure everyone felt safe while still keeping the adventure level high! He shared lots of interesting facts about the river and the area, which made the trip even more memorable. The lunch he served us really hit the spot as well! 5 stars would do it all again!
