River Day Trips - Moab - Colorado River

Day River Trips
Near Moab, enjoy a river day trip or a half-day river trip. A stretch of the Colorado River wanders through some of the most spectacular landscape (Fisher Towers State Park, Professor Valley and Scenic Byway 128) in America. The canyon borders on Arches National Park and the rapids are splashy and fun. This little stretch of river is poetry, Dr. Seuss style!

Rather come-as-you-are? Have a dry river tour and an ingenious Canyonlands experience -- choose a jet boat cruise upon the Colorado River. On the other end of the river spectrum is whitewater to be found in Westwater or Cataract Canyons.

Colorado River Whitewater Splash (DRO)
This is fun without fear and the BEST whitewater trip for people wanting moderate rapids without breaking the family budget! The rapids are big enough to make you howl, and the scenery is the best in the West! When Walt Disney came to photograph whitewater rafting, they asked Tag-A-Long to guide them through this very section of the Colorado River!
