    We had a great time in the Salt River. We always use Wilderness Aware and brought new friends with us this time. One person had some issues with balance and they were able to work with him and put him in the middle. The waters were flowing great. Our staff person was amazing! Making the reservations and getting ready couldn’t be any easier. We can’t wait to go again. Next time will be a full day adventure!

    I'm adventurous and well traveled... always looking for and making the best of every situation. But, with rapids, especially for first timers, safety is vital and the guide we were assigned (she will remain anonymous here, reach out to me if you want her name, so you can request another) did not communicate well; not enough volume or clarity with rowing, and more importantly not much focus on the vital techniques to not get dumped in the water when it gets rough (tucking your feet under holds, etc...) and seemed generally distracted. She was very pleasant, a real sweetheart, actually. But, I didn't feel entirely safe in her hands... and if we go again with this outfitter I would not ride with her. Given that the founder is so experienced, I was surprised she was on the team. Maybe she was having an off day... The weather was gorgeous, the river was roaring, and the day spent with my friends was wonderful.

    We had a GREAT day rafting the Salt River. We did the half day Sprint!! It was perfect! We had the best guide ever!! He was very knowledgeable and tons of fun! We would definitely go again! The rapids were perfect with the water level being higher than usual. We highly recommend this outfitter!

    We were looking for a fun experience to do with our boys ages 15, 14 and 11 while on Spring Break in AZ and this was perfect! We did the half day trip on April 3rd. The drive from Tempe was beautiful - worth the early morning wake-up. We left around 6:30 am, stopped in Globe for a quick breakfast and arrived right at 9:15. The weather was in the mid 70's, but the water temp was around 45. Wilderness Aware provides everything you need - wet suits, water boots, splash jackets, life vests and helmets. We just showed up with swimsuits and long sleeve quick dry shirts. Our guide Tony was great and knew a lot about the river and area. Because of the high water levels this year, we were lucky to have some bonus rapids that normally aren't flowing. There were plenty of class II and III rapids as well as calm waters for taking in the amazing beauty all around. If you don't have a waterproof camera, you can purchase a flash drive of photos that they take of all the rafts along the route. Ben captured a ton of amazing shots of our group! On the way back to Tempe, we took the advice of the guides and stopped for lunch at Los Robertos in Globe (right next to McD's). It was so good! Overall, this was an awesome experience that we will never forget. I can't recommend it enough!

    It was my first time whitewater rafting, so I did the Salt River half day. Beautiful scenery, the water level was high. Our guide was Flocks, who was super cool. Everyone was friendly and things went off without a hitch.
