We booked a tour of Mesa Verde for a full day. Arrived at 8:00; returned at 4:30. The day was not a blue bird sky day - we had clouds, drizzle, rain and grey but the experience was surreal. Overlooks of amazing architecture in the cliffs, pit adobes in the corn fields, storage of grain in the cliffs - all viewed easily from the road and overlooks. Easily seen but not easily understood. That’s where our tour guide, Jay was an incredible asset. He added so much to our viewing of these spaces that we will take away incredible knowledge of the Pueblan People. And then the tour of the Palace. WOW! In fact, WOW was the word of the day! Jay was the best of the best. I have gone with Viator before and have not been disappointed. They pick the best tour companies in the area. Thanks Jay for a wonderful experience.

Tips for Your tubing Adventure

  • Behind the Recreation Center
  • 29th Street Memorial Park
  • 9th Street Bridge
  • Santa Rite Park

WHAT TO WEAR & BRING

  • Swimsuit/Quick drying clothing
  • Water shoes or secure sandals with heel straps
  • Hat
  • Waterproof bag
  • Sunscreen

Important Considerations

  • Tubing can be hard work especially at lower water levels. There can be a lot of rocks to avoid and difficulties in finding the deepest channels.
  • The lower the water is, the more challenging it is. A better option is often a guided inflatable kayak trip. The guide will navigate you through the passable channels and your shuttle is taken care of!
  • No open containers of alcohol are allowed on the river.
  • No glass containers.
  • Pack out all trash and dispose of it in the proper receptacle.
  • Dogs must be on a leash on shore and dog waste must be cleaned up.
  • Respect private property and do not trespass.
  • Be polite and courteous to others on and near the river.
  • When approaching anglers, move away to the opposite side of the river to pass.
