I took five of my kids (ages 21 down to 11) on the half day Browns Canyon trip while my wife took our two youngest daughters (ages 5 & 2) on the Milk Run. The Browns Canyon run was good for some of us beginners as it starts off in calmer waters but also get variety of different rapids later. The Milk Run was perfect for the little girls as it was calmer and just fun for them! Everyone had a GREAT time! Our guides (Ross & Paige) were AWESOME! Thank you to them and the rest of The Adventure Company crew for a great time and for the memories made. read less

Also very experienced and knowledgeable on the area. Our party was small compared to others but we felt comfortable with her guidance as we journeyed down the river. The water is shockingly cold but that made the splashing even more fun! Highly recommend this smaller outfitter - they were very personable and friendly from the first phone call to the goodbyes. Call early to get the tour you want. Reservations fill fast during the summer. So fun!! read less

However Swany did a great job of helping us feel safe and prepared for what was in store for us. Not only that he knew a lot about the terrain and the history of the area, he was a great, personable guide. I would recommend using The ADventure Company in the future if you're looking for a way to enjoy the beautiful landscape and have a little fun at the same time! I also want to mention that they were very Covid careful and made sure everything was clean and safe! read less

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. read less

We started out with them when my boys were 7 and 8 Years old on the upper Colorado. Then we did Browns Canyon 1/2 day last year. Today we did Browns Canyon full day. Our guide was Alex Wilson, and we had an absolutely amazing time. TAC did a great job with making us feel comfortable during this difficult time with Covid-19. Our driver was Ginger, and he had a funny sense of humor. The most important part of the equation is the river guide. You should look for several things in your guide. For example, you hope they truly love their job; because if they do, then you cannot help but smile and laugh the whole way down the river. Also, you hope that the guide is knowledgeable of the area and has interesting stories and history to share with you. Most importantly, you have to have a guide that makes you and your family feel safe. Without, this aspect, the earlier points are irrelevant. Wilson made me feel safe, but more important I knew he was making sure my boys were safe. This made it so I didn’t have to focus the whole time on my boys; and instead, I was able to enjoy the water, the amazing views, and the fun stories. On top of that, for as well as you can get to know someone in a day on the river, Wilson struck me as a good person you just enjoyed hanging out with. Thank you TAC. Cannot wait to see everyone next year. read less

Katie, who helped me book my trip, was so sweet and patient while I asked tons of questions and changed my mind a bunch of times. They also accommodated several time changes because we had car trouble along the way. The facility itself was super clean and organized. Our equipment was clean and in good shape. Most importantly our guide, Swany, was wonderful! We had a great conversation during the tame parts of the trip and he was full of interesting info about the surrounding area. He was fun, funny, and informative. He kept us safe and entertained us at the same time. We will definitely book our next trip with the Adventure Company and we will request Swany as our guide. Can't wait till next year! read less

What FUN we had on the Arkansas River in the Browns Canyon! Our party of 7 (2 adults, 3 college students, and 2 high schoolers) opted for the full day rafting adventure with lunch. We were split into two boats as one boat was carrying a cooler for our lunch stop. Only one person had ever white water rafted before, so this was a new experience for most! We had two AMAZING guides ... Swanee and Shana. Not only do they have years of river guide experience, but they provided a lot of history of the area. The rapids were a blast ... a little bit of everything from leisurely floating to 3+ class rapids! The smiles on everyone’s faces said it all. Lunch was yummy ... chicken and steak fajitas with salad, fruit, and brownies (oh, and PB&J for starters!). And the photos were awesome ... captured the “moments”! Honestly, we called several places before deciding to go with TAC ... they took the time to provide a lot of information to help us decide which trip was best for us, they were super accommodating, and they were incredibly friendly. We will definitely recommend TAC to others and will definitely book with them again! read less

The weather was fabulous, but the water cold. We opted for renting wetsuits and booties. I am a large woman. I was self conscious that they would not have a wetsuit my size. I was assured on the phone that they've never had a problem fitting anyone. When we arrived and they handed out wetsuits, no commentary, and mine fit just fine.

Our guide, Wilson (like the volleyball), was awesome. He made us feel comfortable in all ways. He made sure to accommodate for my weak knees. Our youngest daughter had just turned 12 a couple of days earlier. He made sure she was in the front of the boat, and coordinated the singing of Happy Birthday with another boat.

We learned so much about the history and nature of Browns Canyon and the area surrounding surrounding Buena Vista.

The trip was a great balance of Class 1 and 2 rapids so we could talk and learn and Class 3 for excitement.

Wilson has such a passion for his job and life in general. It was infectious. His life story was great for later conversations with our teenagers about life choices and appreciating what you have.

From employees answering phone questions to all the guides to the owner to the bus driver, the level of customer service was unparalleled. We were even spared the traditional suggestion of tipping. We hope others that day had they same level of appreciation and tipped accordingly.

An awesome experience that exceeded expectations. Can't wait to see pics! read less

They were especially accommodating by offering to pick us up in Breckenridge and drive us to the location! Upon arrival, hot lunch was waiting for us... delicious fajitas! Nate was our guide, who was a great leader, and made everyone feel comfortable with friendly conversation and great coaching style! You could tell he was very passionate as a rafter and director. We WILL be using adventure company again for other upcoming trips, and would recommend everyone to do the same! read less

We had an amazing day on our rafting experience. Our guide, Josh, was absolutely outstanding. From his friendly calm demeanor to his expertise on the water and the fabulous lunch it was an excellent day. My husband and I are in our mid fifites, our three kids range from 18-21. We were both challenged and had time to take in the beautiful scenery. Josh knew a lot of interesting facts about the area he shared with us was a great instructor for us "newbies". Instead of lunching at a crowded place we stopped along the route and picniced on a large boulder with a great view. He pulled out a small grill and in no time we had a lunch of fajitas, fresh fruit, chips and salsa, salad, and even brownies. There was enough excitement on the trip for my 19 year old son and at the same time I always felt safe under Josh's guidance. I can't say enough about what a great guide Josh was and all that it added to our experience. The Adventure Co. has very helpful people and the equipment all looked sate and in good condition. I would highly recommend booking your experience with this company. If we go back, I will go there and request the same guide as well! read less

He gave it a 4/10 for how hard it was, and a 10/10 for how fun it was. He’s ready to go back for a full day trip next time. Our guide, Denison, was extremely prepared, knowledgeable and entertaining. Safety was a high priority, which was very important to me. Everything was so professional, from beginning to end. The staff inside were super friendly and we just felt overall that they appreciated our business and took it seriously. Highly recommend and we will definitely go back again. read less

Anxiety easily could have sneaked in but the competence of everyone at The Adventure Company set us at ease. From the person who answered the phone to all of the guides and bus driver, The Adventure Company staff seemed genuinely intent on making sure we had a great time while ensuring our safety. Our guide, Drew, was awesome. He knew exactly what he was doing, instructed us clearly, and provided history of the area as we passed through. read less
