Defining Vail Rafting Since 1971

You'll benefit from one of the oldest and most knowledgeable Vail River Rafting Outfitters in the state if not the country. We pioneered many of the river stretches we run.

Over two thirds of our staff are qualified to guide on our more difficult stretches of river. Timberline Guides average 15 years of experience or more, guiding on rivers all over the world. Therefore, you can be certain we will exceed your expectations in performance, customer service and experience.

The Difference is in the Details

We believe it's the little things that make a good raft trip "great". Our 9,000 square foot Eagle boathouse, our Rustic Arkansas River boathouse, both with a continental breakfast, provide our customers with five star amenities certain to add value to your trip. We also pride ourselves on paying special attention to detail when considering SAFETY.

Timberline Guides are certified in river safety beyond the state requirements, and many of them are instructor-certified. At Timberline Tours, the inclusiveness of our tours ensure that it is not only our goal to take you rafting, (great customer service, focus on safety, transport, river gear-helmet, splash jacket, wetsuit when needed), it is our job to make your rafting experience the highlight of your time in the Vail Valley. Don't forget about our Jeep Tours.
