Half of our group had not been rafting, half had, yet we all had a great experience and highly recommend this trip and would go again. We enjoyed the Wild and Scenic Trip experience, but would have happily handled more rapids and action easily. It was summer but I would advise people to rent a wetsuit to go over your... More

One of the best whitewater rafting trips we've ever had. The Poudre River is a fun time with lots of big waves and technical sections. Not for the faint of heart during high water. The guides at A1 were knowledgeable and entertaining, always making sure everyone felt safe and comfortable in the raft. More

We go with A1 every year or two and bring a friend or family member with us to enjoy the great ride right here in our back yard. We live in Fort Collins and are amazed that the "locals" know less about rafting the Poudre River than the out of state folks who are in our boat each time we... More

We did the "Scenic and Wild" trip which was just right for us. It was a few hours on the river and though driving down the mountain from Estes Park to Fort Collins just to get started, adds a few hours to your day. The staff was helpful, they gave a good instructional introduction to the group, and they made... More

The first leg of the trip was great.  Class II and one class III rapids.  We were two famlies with two kids each.  Three kids were under ten and one 14 yr old.  A bad judgement call by the guide under pressure from one of the wives to sit in the front was a dangerous call. I told the guide... More

We went on the wild and scenic tour and it was both. What a great time and the guides are so much fun. The trip from Estes Park to Fort Collins is beautiful. More

My wife and I went on the #2 A-1 Wildwater Rafting tour (it includes a couple of a Class IV rapids, which can be a little tricky) during a recent trip to Estes Park. The actual launching point is in Fort Collins, CO - about an hour and a half drive from Estes Park. We were a bit mislead by... More

I am a local and have gone with three companies down the river. Mountain white water descents was the first and the one I would give the lowest rating to. A-1 wildwater was the second and I would say they were at best mediocre. The guides were not professional and the service was not friendly but the river was fun... More

13 of us from four states, ranging from 10 year old little ones to grandmothers had a great time. We took the "Wet and Wild" trip and had a blast rolling through white water ranging from Class II through Class IV rapids. The 20-something guides where positive and outgoing. We went on July 4th, and they were yelling all types... More
