Colorado River
About This Trip
Spend the day drifting through the incredible sites of Castle Valley on the Colorado River. This is a very mild, scenic float trip with long flat water sections and a few rapids along the way to cool off. You’ll have plenty of time to admire the scenery, relax, and enjoy your river guide’s knowledge of Moab and the surrounding area.
Those looking to get a great workout in and more splashes in the Class II rapids should consider hopping in an inflatable kayak for this trip! Throughout the drift, we’ll stop for swimming, games, and lunch on the beach.
Full-day trips on the Colorado River start at $88.00.
Boat Options

Important Considerations
Changing rooms and bathrooms are limited at our boatyard, so we encourage guests to come in their river getup beforehand!
While lunch is provided on our full day trips, we do not provide snacks, so bring some along in a small bag along with your water bottle if you think you’d like to have them!
Castle Valley is continuously being sculpted by wind, so expect these desert gales on your trip— particularly in the afternoon.
The rapids in Castle Valley are mild and interspersed between long flat-water sections. If you want level up on the adventure and exercise, consider choosing your own destiny in an inflatable kayak!
There are some logistics for the guides before and after your time on the water, so there’s some waiting involved. We appreciate your understanding in advance!
