43 year old out of shape Aunt conned into riding the (beginner) rapids with my 19 year old niece. Went early in the season, water was low (thankfully)! Had an absolutely awesome time with 2 great guides, Jake and Gary. They know their stuff, safety was priority, but showed us a good time. Marked it off my bucket list, but... More

We did the intermediate trip and loved it so much we went back for the advanced trip a few weeks later. If youre going to go rafting close to Denver...we definately recommend Clear Creek Rafting! More

This was hands down the best part of our week long Colorado adventure! We went on the beginner trip with my mom and kids ages 6 and 8. Our guide Eric (aka ET) was AWESOME! He showed us the proper way to paddle and made sure the kids were situated to where they wouldn't get bumped out the raft. Even... More

We went towards the end of the season & booked an intermediate trip. Since the creek was getting low we were upgraded to the advanced trip which turned out to be amazing! Our guide Kenneth was very professional and talked us brilliantly through each rapid. Would highly recommend this trip to anyone wanting to experience the thril of rafting. More

My hubby and I did the 10am intermediate half day rafting trip the day before my 40th birthday. I hadn't been rafting in almost 20 years and my husband had never done it, so we were a bit nervous going right for an intermediate trip! Upon arriving, we could see what a professional outfit this is. Their building is large,... More

Our family had never been rafting and took the beginner trip in late August of 2011. I was told when I booked our trip that the water level was quite low and as a result there would be far less rapids and may be less thrilling than at another time of year. That was fine by us since we were... More

We took the "beginner" raft trip with my 77 year old mother in law. Our guide decided it wasn't thrilling enough and lodged us on a flat rock. His instruction was to all get to one side of the raft, guaranteeing a flip. We spent the night in the emergency room with my mother in law, with bruised ribs. With... More
