Three people, two young women and one man, are dressed in helmets and life jackets, standing on a rocky riverbank. They are smiling and appear to have completed a whitewater rafting trip. The man is holding a yellow paddle, and the background features a calm river with rocky cliffs and green vegetation along the shoreline. The setting suggests an outdoor adventure activity near a natural waterway.

ONE OF THE MOST FUN EXPERIENCES I HAVE EVER DONE!!! Highly recommend for anyone wanting a cool adventure with breathtaking views. Far Flung is an amazing company and had everything set us perfectly for us. I felt safe the entire time. The lunch they made us was also so great!! Evan was one of the BEST guides ever. Can't wait to come back for another trip with him!!

You can't find a better river rafting program in NM. Fair, friendly, customer focused and down right practically family. The guides are more than boatmen, they are leaders. I've done floats since the 80s, but after a several hair raising terrible experiences, I hung my oars up for a while. I decided to try it one more time for my daughters. The guides, Will and Chas, took the best care of us and showed us a fun and safe time. They are class acts. I'll go back to them again for our next trip.

See all

My personal favorite is the whitewater trip on the Taos Box, which has class 4+ rapids and is really a blast.

This was a last minute addition to my recent trip to Taos. I was looking for a short, easier…read moreexcursion on my last day in the area and the half day Orilla Verde raft trip was a perfect choice. This section of the river is calmer so its perfect for a relaxing float where you can spot wildlife and enjoy the grandeur of the gorge. You can opt to paddle a "funyak" on your own rather than go in the group raft. It's basically an inflatable kayak and my boyfriend and I chose that. It worked out well since there was only one other person in our group and they also chose a funyak. Check in is easy at the cafe in Pilar, about 20 minutes south of Taos and then you meet your guide at the gorge's visitor center across the street. Zac was our guide and he was a chill, cool guy but also focused on our safety and helped us navigate some shallow areas and one, small, class two rapids. He shared some stories about the river and its people and plant life. We got to see sheep climbing down the gorge to come drink in the river, a great blue heron and lots of ducks. It was a slow pace but that's what I was looking for. The funyaks were a little more challenging to navigate than regular kayaks (to me anyway.) They were lighter and seemed to spin and meander more. It was still a pleasant journey-just took a bit more concentration to paddle-especially with the two person boat we chose. Safety helmets and life jackets are provided and required. At the end, we shuttled back to the visitor center and our cars and Zac brought some apples, cookies and chips for the group. What a fun and memorable way to end my time in Taos. Los Rios is fun, friendly, easy to work with and I'd absolutely go again! Don't forget to tip your guide and also be ready to get a little wet, even on a more mellow trip. Had an awesome time on the river!

worst river tubing I have done too shallow hit more rocks than water. no rapids…read more should have closed in August or before will never raft with y'all again !!!

Our first encounter with this company was on a trail. We were headed up and saw a Jeep coming the…read moreopposite way. As we got close he decides to stop in the middle of a wide part that we could have easily passed him. He started waving his hands at us to stop and gave us a pissy look. THEN he decides to back up and move over and let us through. We have been Jeeping the trails of NM and CO for almost 20 years so we're not rookies. We had the right of way and he stopped in the middle of a wide spot. We have been offroading in the area for over a month now and this was the only rude person we have passed on the trail. Everyone else has been smiling and accommodating to others as are we. After we were done with that trail we were wanting to do another and I had remembered researching one but didn't bring the info with me. I figured one of the outfitter/tours/adventure stores might have a map. The first place we passed was RR Offroad. Walked into the mess of a front waiting area and he yelled he'd be down. Lo and behold it was the same rude guy. Explained I was looking for a offroad map and he abruptly told me no one in town would have that kind of stuff. That seemed odd. I also asked if anyone in town sold stickers with the passes/trails on them (like they do in Silverton/Ouray so I could add to my collection). He laughed at me and told me just to grab some of the dirt as a souvenir. Which in a national forest I'm pretty sure is illegal. So I said nevermind and walked out. We went down a block to Bighorn Sports & Rentals and I walked into a clean shop with a guy behind the counter with a friendly face that was glad to help me figure out where the trail I wanted was and happily sold me a map. Now I'm not sure if this guy's attitude changes as long as he's getting your money. But after the day's encounters with him there's no way in hell I'd give him one dime of our hard earned money. Buyer beware. And yes this my first ever Yelp review. I was treated THAT bad.

Gary was horrible to me on the phone. He was very rude and would not listen to what I was saying…read more He just talked over me and ended up hanging up on me. I was really hoping to take my family on a Jeep tour.
