Reviews
This was our first experience, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. We checked off a bucket list item as we admired the beautiful Colorado River and stunning scenery. Our guide, Aubrey, was fantastic; she shared ample information, including safety procedures, and kept us informed throughout the 10-mile stretch. We felt very secure in the raft. I highly recommend Blue Sky Tours, as everything was perfect from beginning to end. Thank you, Jackie & Andy.
This experience was so enjoyable and perfect for families. Our guide Mike was fantastic, providing valuable information and ensuring that everyone felt at ease. An adventure filled with fun for all!
Max was the perfect guide for riding on this river. I highly recommend booking your tour here—aim for the 11:30 AM time slot, as it's the best. Make sure to reserve your tour in advance.
Aubrey was our guide, and she was fantastic. Her knowledge and confidence made us feel safe, and we had an excellent time. She’s a really cool person, and I was pleased to have her lead our group. My husband and two sons enjoyed it as much as I did. Blue Sky is fortunate to have her.
Blue Sky Adventures is an exceptional outfitter that delivers a fantastic overall experience. They are very well-organized and ensure a safe, thrilling trip suitable for the whole family. Floating down the Colorado River in Glenwood Springs is a must-do for everyone.
We had an incredible family adventure during our vacation. Our kids, aged 7, 8, 11, and 12, thoroughly enjoyed it. Allen was an outstanding guide who ensured we all had a great time. The highlight was definitely the first 15-20 minutes navigating the Shoshone rapids, followed by a more relaxed stretch of the river, which is just how it flows. I recommend this for the excitement, stunning scenery, and refreshing swimming opportunities in the river at certain spots.
Our half-day tour with Allen was wonderful. It combined excitement and relaxation perfectly. We felt secure the entire time, and everything was well-organized and handled professionally. We would love to experience it again.
This was an incredible experience with Allen! Perfect for our family of five, with kids aged 5 and older. The three-hour excursion featured just the right level of rapids to be enjoyable without being frightening. We would definitely do it again.
The adventure was well-organized with excellent rafting guides. Our family had a delightful afternoon filled with fun. It was truly an amazing experience.
My wife and I have rafted with Blue Sky Adventures three times now, the last being eight years ago. They have moved to a new facility since our last visit, but they continue to provide the same blend of fun, excitement, and safety as before. They offer a wide range of experiences, and we chose the half-day trip on the Colorado River. Our guide, “Mudflap,” led our group of seven, which included participants from age 5 to 70, with different levels of rafting experience. “Mudflap” ensured everyone felt safe while making sure we all enjoyed ourselves. I highly recommend including a Blue Sky Adventure rafting trip in your Glenwood Springs itinerary.
