Top Santa Fe Float Trips

It was a great experience breathtaking reviews! Our tour guide was laidback and encouraging. The water was lower this year leading to the rapids not being to challenging… but, definitely worth a visit/trip !

Absolutely incredible experience rafting the Rio Grande! We did the full-day trip and I highly recommend it. Our guides were fantastic, funny, knowledgeable, engaging, and wonderful with the kids. They kept us laughing with their cheesy jokes, taught us about the history of the Rio Grande, Indigenous cultures, and native plants, and even made us a delicious fajita lunch along the way. It was the perfect mix of adventure, scenery, history, and fun. Truly a memorable day and one of the highlights of our trip

Our driver and guide, Cindy, led us on an amazing day. Door to door service in comfort that began with a generous gift bag of yummy snacks to help fuel our adventures. After rafting the river she whisked us to a delicious lunch at a gem of a spot. We felt like were let in on a local’s secret. Then tastings at four different wineries. We were surprised and delighted by the quality of the wines. The charm and character of each was unique but all were beautiful with gracious hosts. A true vip tour without the vip price.

We had a fabulous trip with Cindy - she arrived to pick us up ahead of schedule, provided us with snacks and information about where we were going, and was over all a great hostess. The rafting was well organized and very fun, followed by a delicious lunch and wine tours. We highly recommend this trip!

Very enjoyable, fun,Austin our guide was knowledgeable about the route, history and nature, and knows his craft. Lunch was homemade and very tasty.Rapids and surrounding nature was beautiful and peaceful.

We took a youth group of 20 high school students after a local mission trip as a fun day and we couldn't have been more pleased. Staff was courteous, welcoming, and very knowledgeable. This would be a very good experience as a team building exercise for corporate teammates.

Had a wonderful time on the White Water Rafting and Wine Tour! Cindy was a great guide - providing transportation to and from the river and wineries, setting up lunch and even surprising us with a charcuterie spread at the last winery. It was a blast.

Our tour was expertly guided by Dan on the river and Cindy did our winery tour and was very patient with our time at each winery! It was a long day doing both the wineries and the rafting but very well worth the investment! Highly recommend.

My wife and I did the full day Rio Grande tour. That day we were the only ones doing the full day as two other families were doing the half day. NMRA was very easy to deal with and has very nice facility and equipment and a well-organized operation. Tas was a great guide sharing information about New Mexico and was very knowledgeable about the river and navigating the rapids. Our trip included a fajita lunch and treats. We had a great time and would highly recommend NMRA.

Phenomenal experience with Alfred as our pilot he answered all of our groups questions and loves what he does. Highly recommend!

⸻This ended up being the perfect anniversary treat—just my husband and me on what felt like our own private guided boat trip!From the moment we arrived, Sarah greeted us with her warm, bubbly personality—you can tell she truly loves what she does.Our guide, Jordan, was amazing—so knowledgeable about the area and made the whole experience fun and easy.Do yourself a favor and book a boat ride with this crew—you won’t be disappointed!

My boyfriend and I went on a full day Rio Grande trip with Courtney and it was our first time doing anything like that. It was just us and the amazing guide. She was so knowledgable about the area, the geology, the plants, the history....I was blown away. She showed us petroglyphs and how you can sift for garnets in the river. The rapids were fun and Courtney was such a pro. We had a blast, we felt safe and we learned so much. This was a highlight of our trip and we really appreciated the simplicity of the process, the people who work at NMRA and the entire experience! Highly recommended!

My guide Austin was amazing. This was my first rafting experience and I hope I can do it again next year! All the staff were amazing and friendly.

Cindy was a great host. She picked us up at our Airbnb and took us white water rafting and to four wineries. She had a wonderful lunch planned as well as a fabulous afternoon charcuterie platter. I could not recommend this tour more.

Our guides Kennedy and Ava were awesome and expectations were exceeded. I am an avid kayaker and was initially concerned that being a group tour would not provide enough excitement. However, there was a good balance of relaxation and exhilaration.Bonus points for the Southwestern chicken fajitas our guides cooked onsite for our lunch break. 😋

We had a great day! The rafting was adventurous but not too crazy.Cindy was wonderful. She picked us up at our hotel, took us to the rafting, then took us to lunch and numerous wine tastings.I would definitely recommend.
