Matthew Martin

Thank you Adventure Company you provided us with amazing service and memories for a lifetime!!! Thank you Adventure Company you provided us with amazing service and memories for a lifetime!!! Your facilities were super clean with a place to change and go to the restroom. Most importantly your staff members were so nice, patient and helpful. Our guide Mike Talent was superb at his job. He guided us down The Numbers and through our full day excursion with great care. He also answered my 1,000 questions without getting annoyed. Your team in the retail shop and office were also very helpful. Molly might be the nicest person we have met on our vacation. I will recommend you to all of my friends who come out. FYI we floated Flathead in Glacier last year and the Arkansas float is better-faster, more rapids and maneuvers to make but much more rewarding. - 7/12/2022

Amazing experience This was our first ever white water rafting and it was an amazing experience! We had the best guides, Corey and Collin, they made the trip fun and memorable. They were very professional and knew the ends and outs of the river. I highly recommend this to anyone and hope to come back to do it again. Thank you The Adventure Company for a great time!!! - 7/07/2022

Best experience for a family! Our rafting trip down Browns Canyon was an excellent experience for our family. Our children, (13 and 9) loved the trip! The rapids were the perfect level for our new to rafting family. Our 9-year-old daughter was leery of the trip but Brody, one of our guides, was excellent and really helped her feel comfortable during the experience. The adventure company is well organized and friendly and took the time to answer all our questions. Our whole group, of 10 people, ranging in age from 9-65, loved the experience. Excellent work Brody and Wilson! Thank you for a fun day! - 7/06/2022

White water rafting Brody was the absolute best guide, could not have asked for more. He cooked us lunch by the river and took us on an amazing little hike with breath taking views. - 7/05/2022

I highly recommend The Adventure Co. If you are wanting to book a trip rafting on the Arkansas River, I highly recommend The Adventure Co. We did the full day Brown's Canyon run. What an amazing experience. Our guide Collin went above and beyond to make sure we had an awesome experience. Lunch was great! And our hat's off to Wilson for having our back as safety captain on the trip. Can't say enough. You have to try it. - 6/13/2022

Excellent Summer Adventure for All Ages My family and i just returned from Breckenridge and had a lovely experience with the Adventure Company. My 7 and 9 year olds loved it and our guide, Paige, was knowledgeable, friendly, and safe. We were fortunate enough to have our own raft and felt very comfortable doing this outdoor activity. The company provided clean masks, helmets, and life vests. We had an amazing time and hope to be back soon. You can definitely tell that the employees genuinely enjoy what they do. - 8/14/2020

Super first trip! Great value! More fun than you can imagine! This is a great trip for first-timers with a little courage. My kids (ages 16, 13, and 10) and I all had more fun than we ever could have dreamed. Brody, Kotty, and Page were the guides for our pod. Brody was a riot! Kotty was full of energy and good information about the Arkansas River and the mountain ranges surrounding the valley. The lunch, cooked right there on the bank of the river, was REALLY delicious. As my ten-year-old said, "Their fajitas are better than Chipotle!" For non-rafters, the price might initially seem a little high, but for a full day of fun, it's a great value. Really. (And if you shop around, you'll see that The Adventure Company's prices are actually cheaper than most competitors.) We are already planning our next trip. - 8/07/2020

Exceptional We did this trip with our grandchildren ages 14, 11, and 6. The contactless registration and the friendly staff, all wearing !, made us feel very safe to do this activity in the middle of a pandemic. Our guide was very thorough in training us in how to paddle and the safety guidelines before we started rafting. He was also very good with the kids and made them feel involved; even the 6 year old. He also pointed out points of interest along the way, explaining the history of the nearby mountains, as well as of the local community. We had never been rafting before, and it was a great experience. I highly recommend them and would do it again on a return visit. Exceptional! - 7/22/2020

Great Rafting in Browns Canyon with TAC Really fun family raft trip in Browns Canyon, Class 2-3 rapids that provided plenty of excitement without getting too crazy. Browns Canyon is beautiful with other worldly rock formations. Guide Patty B. was great, experienced, made the trip fun. We felt safe with the COVID-19 precautions taken. Everything was well organized and on-time, and the staff was knowledgeable and personable. This outdoor adventure was well worth it. We'll use TAC again on our next trip. - 7/09/2020

Numbers Whitewater Rafting We went on the Numbers half day with Jessie as our guide. He and the other guides who joined us on the trip took extra care to keep us safe and followed procedures to help follow Covid protocol. The trip was VERY exciting and Jessie provided us with details about the river, what to expect at each #area, and proved to be an expert guide. I was initially nervous as this was only my third whitewater experience, but I soon felt very capable and ready for adventure. Jessie also went above and beyond by telling us geographic information about the area as well as about the wonderful town of Buena Vista. We had lunch at a local restaurant and followed it with yummy ice cream at a local creamery. We had a memorable fun day thanks to Jessie and the rest of the crew at The Adventure Company. You can't go wrong with an adventure with them! - 7/05/2020

Perfect hour float for young families; very pandemic proactive We did the milk run in mid-June, so it was more of a “milkshake run,” but it was a perfectly acceptable flow for a 4yo and 7yo’s first whitewater trip. We got outfitted with PFDs and hopped in the van for a 5 minute trip to the drop-in point. Our guide, Swany, provided a very thorough safety overview before we got in. He and the rest of the folks we met were lovely, had a great sense of humor, and shared expansive knowledge of the natural history of the area. The kids had a blast. Most importantly to the times we live in, this outfitter took every precaution to prevent COVID19 spread, including providing gator masks and regularly disinfecting the vans, boats, and equipment. Two thumbs way up. A must-do on a trip to BV/Salida. - 6/19/2020
