WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS SAY
- We have partnered with AWR for our annual nonprofit trip for the past four years, and it’s always a great experience! Many of the same guides return each year, which makes it even more fun as we’ve gotten to know them. The crew is knowledgeable and makes sure everyone has a great time, especially with their jokes. Looking forward to next July!read moreread lessAshlee Kratovhil8/26/2025

- Talk about an epic trip! When in CO just go with AWR! Class act. River guide Sam was a blast. While professional and giving clear instructions, Sam felt like our friend by the end of the trip. She was wonderful and just what you want in a River guide. Jim was awesome! Thanks for making sure we had all the equipment we needed and the amazing Sammies! We will be back next season. Maybe with kids next time. Thank you.read moreread lessJennifer Verna8/16/2025

From pickup to drop off the excursion was fun and seamless. Our guide, Marina, was terrific! She was upbeat and enthusiastic the whole trip, but she clearly took our safety very seriously and made sure we were prepared. All in all a wonderful family outing. We look forward to going again soon,read moreread less
