Moab Splash & Dash Rafting Trip

Colorado River in Moab Utah

About This Trip

The Moab Splash and Dash rafting trip offers a quick, refreshing introduction to rafting on the Colorado River. This short float through the Castle Valley section is designed for guests who want to experience the river without committing to a longer excursion. It delivers calm water, a few playful splashes, and outstanding red rock scenery just outside Moab.

This late afternoon trip lasts approximately three hours from start to finish, with about one hour spent on the water. Guests float past some of the most recognizable canyon views along the Colorado River while enjoying a relaxed pace and a couple of well timed splashes along the way. Splash and Dash trips on the Colorado River start at $129 per person and require a minimum of four guests to operate.

He was knowledgeable and a skilled driver, we were in good hands. The scenery was gorgeous and we enjoyed seeing this beautiful place. Thanks Jared!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We did the Silverton Jeep Tour Package on 9/28/26 and it was a once in a lifetime experience. Our guide, Tim, took us to picturesque landscapes while giving us knowledge of the history surrounding the mountains of Silverton, all while it was raining I should say. Plus we were able to see and experience first hand snow falling at a higher altitude. We were given ample time to shop around town before departing on the train back to Durango. Only minor thing I would critique was that the roof cover, for the 6 seats in back, was not 99.9% waterproof because their were water drops falling from the cover while it was raining but it was no biggie for us and part of the adventure to be honest (we were given waterproof blankets to cover our bodies from the beginning). PLEASE BRING LAYERS AS MENTIONED ON THEIR WEBSITE (YOU'RE GOING TO NEED THEM)!

She was so knowledgeable, answered questions and gave us so much to think about regarding Mesa Verde. The lunch provided was filling and there were plenty of refreshments offered throughout the day.
I highly recommend the full day tour! Visiting Cliff Palace is so worth it!
