Overview

Cool off during the warmest part of the day on a relaxed Colorado River rafting adventure near Moab. Travel through the scenic “Moab Daily,” surrounded by red-rock cliffs, Professor Valley and the formations near Fisher Towers.

This beginner-friendly trip generally includes mild Class I–II rapids, calm stretches of river and opportunities for swimming, water games and peaceful floating. Depending on river conditions and availability, guests may also have the chance to try inflatable kayaks or tubes.

Way to Moab is a small, owner-operated company offering personal attention and a flexible, less-rushed experience. Your trip includes a professional guide, rafting equipment, personal flotation devices, transportation from our downtown shop, drinking water, snacks, cold beverages and water guns.

It is an ideal afternoon activity after visiting Arches or Canyonlands in the morning.

Meet your guide at the Way to Moab shop and travel along scenic Highway 128 to the Colorado River. After a safety briefing, launch onto the Moab Daily for a relaxing afternoon through Professor Valley.

Float beneath towering red-rock cliffs and desert formations while your guide shares stories about the area's geology, history, wildlife, and landmarks. Enjoy calm stretches between several fun, beginner-friendly whitewater rapids.

The afternoon pace allows time to cool off, swim, play in the water, and enjoy the scenery when conditions allow. After several hours on the river, reach the take-out and ride back to Moab.

A great choice for families, first-time rafters, and anyone looking to cool off during a Moab afternoon. Ages 5+ or minimum 50 lbs.
