Testimonials


We could write about how good we are at what we do, but wouldn't you prefer to hear it directly from our guests? Terms like "above and beyond", "awesome", "professional" and "friendly" are used over and over again by our guests to describe what we call customer service!

We love your feedback!

If you would like to add your testimonial please email us and we will endeavor to add it to our list.


 

I'd like to thank our stars of the summer season Casey Vandenbroek and Ben Whitaker. These two were nominated for the Faces of Aspen/Snowmass Stars of the Summer season award. As you can guess by the photo, they won too! Of course it comes as no surprise to us that guests would rave about our guides.

Please visit www.FacesofAspenSnowmass.com to learn more about this community-wide rewards and recognition progam.

Here's just a few more things that people have said.



We would like to congratulate you for your awesome job guiding us this week!! We had the time of our lives and you made the experience unforgetable! We hope to share time with you again!

Hello all. I just wanted to send my deepest thanks to all of you at Blazing. I had an eight day visit with you this summer and wish it was longer. All of the staff that I met were so professional, kind and very giving. It made for what I think is one of the best times I have ever had.I hope to return next summer for a longer stay. I wish you all the best and good health.

Thanks again,

Dear Blazing Adventures,

I just wanted to write to let you know how much fun we had on your Brown's Canyon Rafting Trip last Friday, July 20th. Ronnie and Casey were our guides and because of them, this trip was the highlight of our entire vacation.... The minute we were picked up we knew we were going to be in for a great time! The car ride to the canyon through Independence Pass was as much fun as the rafting itself. They made sure to include everyone in conversation, and had us laughing the entire time.


Sincerely,
Kelly Komar



 

My wife and I just (11:45 am) returned from your Aspen Mountain tour. Lucas was our driver and he was great; knowledgable, articulate, extraordinarily personable -- and deeply concerned with our comfort and enjoyment. He is a gem!

Took the Jeep tour (Gold Hill tour) on 6/9/07 with my husband. Amazing! Diane was the best. She made the tour very interesting, loved hearing the history of Aspen and Ashcroft. We saw a black bear while up in the mountains. Wow! We definitely want to come back next summer with the kids for this same tour. Thanks!

Thank you for a fabulous day on the river. In short, it was a blast. Even this timid novice got over it! Everything was perfect starting with two great guides and continuing on with delicious food and raging water.

You do such a great job helping people enjoy the mountains!

Blazing Adventures has been a truly amazing partner with Grace Place Retreat Ministries in providing extraordinary adventure opportunities to our retreat participants.  Most of our attendees have read about but never experienced mountain biking, jeeping in the high country or white water rafting...they approach these events with trepidation, to say the least.  From the moment of registration to the end of the "ride", Blazing Adventures creates memorable, safe and, dare I say, life-changing fun that our retreatants hold in their spirits, even as they return to the flatlands.  Thanks for the memories, Blazing Adventures!!!

I'm so glad that a friend referred me to you to arrange a sunset dinner. A fun time was had by all. Please accept and pass on to the rest of the Blazing Adventures staff our sincere thanks for a very enjoyable and memorable evening. The guitar player was the undisputed star. Everyone was singing and dancing until 10:00pm and the food was delicious. I will certainly recommend this outing to others and will look forward to visiting again.

Kind Regards,

Thank you for making our day on the Colorado River so extra special. All the students who returned had huge smiles and nothing but fabulous compliments for your river guides.

One in particular was the river guide for a blind student, went above and beyond to make her day fun and safe. He offered detailed descriptions of the beauty of the landscapes in the Glenwood Canyon so she could get a mental vision of what her eyes could not see. He also provided excellent supervision while on the river and even went as far to give her piggy back rides to and from the picnic area.

We are very thankful to your entire staff for providing our students with such a great day and wonderful memories of Colorado. Thanks to all of you!

In Appreciation,

Your company is the epitome of the spirit of service! We will let everyone know that doing business with your company is nothing less than RAD.

Wow! Every person in our group had such a good time, whether it was fishing, rafting, jeeping or biking. All of the Blazing Adventures staff are so professional and wonderful to work with - thank you again for giving us really cool memories.

Thanks!

I would like to thank you for the wonderful job you did coordinating our rafting trip in August! Your staff were a great help to me. I have heard nothing but positive remarks from everyone who went on the trip. We all had a fantastic time and look forward to coming again next year! I also wanted to thank our guides, they did an outstanding job and were great fun to "ride the river" with. In fact, one of my friends commented that. " he has been on rafting trips numerous times and he has never had guides that were so friendly and entertaining".

Sincerely,

My family and I really enjoyed ourselves rafting and horseback riding. A huge thank you to our rafting guide, who absolutely made our trip so awesome! Thanks again for all your help.

As a guest of a group, I thought you might like to hear a compliment about one of your guides. Our raft of eight or so enjoyed the trip so much that we all commented on how wonderful your guide made the experience. So, I took it upon myself to write you a note, particularly since I have gone on a number of rafting trips throughout the US and the world for that matter and never really experienced this quality of service and river guiding as  I experienced on this trip. I expected a rather touristy experience, what I received was somewhat the opposite. The explanations he gave demonstrated his obvious passion for his job and the local area. His commentary made the trip quite unique. We all felt like we were on an adventure. I just felt like dropping you and your guides a well deserved compliment for a job well done!

With Regards,

William Lese

I wanted to compliment you on your extraordinary staff. All of your employees were competent, friendly and did a super job in every aspect. The activities were a huge success and a great time was had by all. Thanks for making it happen!

I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed ourselves in Aspen. We had a wonderful time. Blazing Adventures was a big part of that. The rafting trip was exciting and loads of fun. The sunset dinner was great, fun and great tasting! You all helped us feel special. Thank you once again for helping us have a great vacation.

This is just a quick note to thank you for our beautiful day on the Upper Roaring Fork. Our guide was fun, upbeat and knowledgeable about the river. I would recommend you again to anyone.

Thanks,

Dear Blazing Adventures,
In early June, we were visiting Aspen for the first time and we arranged for a jeep tour with your company. Our guide was terrific and he brought us to some of the most memorable heights as we toured beautiful Aspen. You are fortunate to have such knowledgable guides working for you. Our teenage sons thought our jeep tour was one of the highlights of our vacation.

Most Sincerely,

L.Mulkeen

The person that referred us was right! You all do a terrific job. We loved our day biking down form the Maroon Bells. Our only disappointment was that we couldn't do more with you. The day we were left to hike on our own, we first started on a trail that was more appropropriate for horses (smell wise) and never seemed to get where we wanted to go! We appreciated the care given by your staff the prior day much more!

Again, my sincere thanks
C.Bluestone

"Blazing Adventures was recommended to us and we found them highly professional, providing quality equipment and a well run tour".... "Having our ride planned not only saved us time but also allowed us to completely focus on the pleasures of the ride. Chief among them were the fresh, cool air scented with sage and the delicate columbines marking our way as we sped alongside the swiflty flowing Maroon Creek
