Our group of four had a fun and informative afternoon

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a lovely rafting experience with Max. Everything was well organized although the river was out of low. We still enjoyed the trip out very much. He was very personable and added a lot of information as we floated down the river and was very knowledgeable of the local area and could answer all our questions. We felt very safe excellent afternoon.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had a wonderful time exploring the Silverton area via the Jeep Tour. Larry, our fearless driver, was great. He shared the history of the area and safely led us to an old mining ghost town and cemetery. As an added bonus, when I spotted a moose from the road, he willingly turned around so we could take a closer look!

We had 4 kids in tow, ages 5 to 8, and the Jeep tour was a fun adventure for them. Because we had the kids, we did the Jeep tour first then the train ride down (as opposed to the full train ride), and I'm so glad we did!

Dress in layers, bring your own snacks, and hydration. Blankets were provided which was a pleasant surprise. Be prepared to be jolted, you're on a 4-wheel drive road which makes it more exciting and got some squeals from the kids. There were restroom stops along the way.

Highly recommend if you're open to a morning in the elements and have an adventurous spirit.
