What a great time. Very concerned with safety, Mike was our guide he did a awesome job very friendly. We did the six mile intro trip. That was class two and three rapids. Would definitely do it again at the end we wished we were on a longer run, wasn’t ready for it to end!

Great rafting company with friendly and very knowledgeable staff. Booked a intro level afternoon trip, and although it was overcast and sprinkling, was a great trip down the Poudre River. Glad we paid for wet suits and booties since the river was a chilly 38 degrees. Our guide Mike was awesome and made our trip on the to-do-again list.

What an amazing adventure! We did the afternoon blast trip on June 20th. The water was really flowing but our guide, Derek, did an amazing job at getting us through the rapids. There was one section of the trip that we were not able to do and we had to be shuttled around this area but the entire trip was great! If you are in the area and looking to do some rafting, I would recommend this place. Check-in was pretty smooth. They have all the equipment needed for a pleasant day on the water. The water temperature was 36 degrees so we did opt to get wetsuits. The air temperature was great so we did not get the splash jackets. They also provide booties, helmets and life jackets. They provided a lot of information prior to departing about what to expect on the water and what to do in specific situations. I was glad they spent the time going through all of this as it did come in handy during our trip. The bus ride to the put in point was uneventful. Once in the water, our guide spoke to us again about safety on the water and the commands he would be using as well as worked with us to get in some practice strokes. The trip was exciting and lived up to it’s name«Blast»! In one sections of Rapids, three people fell out of our raft. Our guide kept us on track and we had everyone back in the raft without issue. Our guide was great and we wouldn’t hesitate to choose him again.

Without having any knowledge of what white water rafting company to use in Colorado, we turned to Unilocal for help. After reading wanderlust adventure’s customer reviews, we decided to try them out. The staff was super friendly, well organized and very experienced guides. Everything the reviews have said is true! We will definitely use them again when we come back to Colorado!

We had about 20 people in our group in town for our wedding. Everyone LOVED the rafting! The guides were all friendly and engaging. We booked the Blast but ended up being downgraded to the Taste because the water levels were too dangerous(and given a refund for the difference). Even with the downgrade, it was an adventure and we will be back next time to try the next level up!

Visit — July 17, 2011 Told to arrive at 2:15pm — no need to arrive earlier than that per the person on the phone. We did but then had to wait to check in, which wasn’t a big deal. Printed and pre-filled out the form from the website. Return time — 5:30pm. Water temp — 38 degrees Husband said the water is a shock but within 5 minutes of paddling you get used to it and don’t notice it. Paddling — You don’t stroke, rather you use your entire body to paddle. Stick your arms out in front of you and then pull your entire body backwards in a single motion — ab work. Gift for the husband’s birthday. Scheduled the first timer’s trip, «A Taste,» but since the water is higher than normal and the group my husband was with happened to have been on that one before, the guide upgraded them. Basically they got the step up but for the same price and the same amount of time as the original trip. I believe the step up is a two hour trip as opposed to a one hour jaunt. I believe she was being nice so don’t expect it. But points to her. Be careful when you go to pull around to the back of the building or you might run into someone who is using a gas pump. The place isn’t fancy, but it is rafting so who cares. There is a unisex bathroom in their area but there are split bathrooms in Vern’s upstairs. There are no lockers so you have to lock your things in your car. Apparently the bus driver holds onto your keys for you once you get to your starting point. Bus ride into the mountains was 45 minutes. There are six people per boat, including the guide I believe. My husband loved it. He was placed as the«captain». He says you go for a while, stop and get out of the boat and people can switch positions, and then you start off again. CD with videos and photos was $ 38 — $ 44. Really good shots, but we passed. Vern’s cinnamon buns upstairs are gooood and HUGE.

Awesome ride and very professional everything from the equipment to the awesome guides and the whole experience! We had Jackson as our guide and he was basically a stand up comedian the whole time, and made the most out of all the rapids spinning the boat every which way to give us the most fun for our time. Wuld highly recommend and this year the water will be very very high in early to mid June — I’ll be back again then!

Merrily, merrily, down… OMG a class 4 rapid! This was a great place for whitewater rafting, our first time, but hopefully not our last. Our guide, Lucas, was super knowledgeable and put us in a good path down the Poudre River. The only thing we were disappointed in is that we didn’t do a full day. We did the Blast trip. It’s recommended that you hit the river in the early summer months May-June, but the river was 3′ over in early July.

Great place to go for whitewater rafting! They have multiple levels of rapids you can try — we were on the beginner but i have heard they go up to class 4 and up. Our guide Lucas was a lot of fun and very knowledgeable. Definitely recommend going to these guys if you are in Fort Collins and want to try rafting.
