Reviews for Guided Rafting Trips Near Vail: Chill or Rowdy, Choose Your Adventure

Our group of 8 was scammed by Turtle Tubing, and Sage hooked us up day-of with a raft and shuttle service. We had a fantastic float on the river and will definitely be booking with them in the future. Thank you!

My family and I had an absolutely unforgettable experience whitewater rafting with Sage Outdoor Adventures. From start to finish, everything was seamless and well organized. We were picked up right on time at our hotel by the friendly Sage staff, which made things so easy and stress-free. Once we arrived at the river, we were impressed with how professional and knowledgeable our guide was—he truly made the day exceptional. His enthusiasm, expertise, and even the occasional joke helped us feel safe while still keeping the ride exciting and fun. The rafting itself was an incredible adventure, the rapids were thrilling combined with moments of calm that let us soak in the breathtaking scenery. One of the most memorable highlights of the trip was spotting a bear along the shoreline! It felt like something out of a nature documentary. There were quite a few boats on the river that day, but the whole operation was run so smoothly that it never felt crowded or chaotic. Everyone in our group had a blast. This was, without a doubt, one of the best outdoor experiences we’ve ever had as a family. Our son is already talking about coming back again next year!

We had an amazing experience with Wes at Sage Outdoor! My family elected to do the Shoshone Triple Thriller rafting trip, and it was an absolute blast. From start to finish, Wes brought the best energy and made us feel totally safe. The rapids were class 3 which was the perfect degree of thrilling and fun for my family of various ages. The scenery through the Glenwood Canyon was also beautiful. We can't wait to book another excursion with Wes at Sage Outdoor!

From the white waters of Colorado to the mountain trails on ATVs Colton with Sage was an AWESOME guide!!! We got to spend an entire day with Colton he picked us up Saturday morning from the hotel & greeted us with a big smile & great conversation on the drive to Sage. Then we got with our rafting group & hit the water- we had a blast! The rapids were great the scenery was just beautiful & Colton was full of so much knowledge about the area we were rafting which was so cool to be able to learn some history about an area we have driven through so many times. Next we changed clothes then Colton drove us to the ranch for the ATV tour in the mountain- 2 hours of FUN! Colton loves his job that is so obvious from how he handles himself with the clients & while he is working. What a great company & what an awesome guide! We are planning to bring our kids back in December to snowmobile with Sage & hoping we can link back up with Colton! Thanks Sage & Colton for an awesome adventure!!

We took a Class II rafting experience. Everything was on time and we had a wonderful experience. Our guide, Jessie, was so patient with our kid who had lots of questions. She even went the extra mile and swam out with her for the cannonball island fun. You can tell the guides are very empathetic and intuitive with not just nature but every person on the boat. Would highly recommend!
