I just moved to colorado 6 months ago and this was my first time rafting. My family and I had an absolutely wonderful time. I couldn't have asked for a better company to go rafting with. The trip was fun and the guides were wonderful. We personally got Drew as our guide and he was great. He was very up... More

Let me first start off by saying I love rafting... My husband and I have been several times in many different places. This trip was something special I planned to do with my parents and I have to say that although it was fun I was really offended and disappointed with the attitude of our guide. I understand that safety... More

We thoroughly enjoyed the rafting trip that we had with Mountain Whitewater Descents. My first concern was safety for our kids 10 and 12. We did the rapids 1-3 and there was a 4 in there also! I was impressed with the emphasis on safety throughout the trip. Our route was even changed due to high waters and they changed... More

I actually went on two rafting trips, one with a company near Denver and one with Mountain Whitewater Descents. MWD was by far the better rafting service. They both charged the same price, but MWD was over two hours of rafting while the other was only 45 minutes. MWD's the Plunge takes you to a class 4+ level. That's the... More

My husband, 7 year old son and I did the Splash trip down the Cache la Poudre river in late July 2011. Water levels were high for the time of year due to the amount of snow that winter. Our guide was incredibly nice, and great at his job. We had a flawless run and great conversation. The company compound... More

Excellent.....describes our experience with this company from start to finish. Very knowledgeable and professional staff. We all felt safe and secure riding in Tracey's boat. She knew the river well, side crew were visible and ready with ropes at crucial points on the river banks for those "just in case scenarios". They even have kennels available for those traveling with... More

We had a great time taking the afternoon plunge trip. Trevor, our raft guide, was awesome. The guides were playing games between boats and they tailored the trip to the skills of those in the boat. Will definitely come back. More

My daughter and I took a raft ride on July 25, 2011 with Mountain Whitewater Descents. We had a blast on our ride. Our guide Casey made the ride very fun and focused on safety throughout the experience. We would suggest that you take the plunge tour and we would recommend this company to anyone. More
