Fun! Nate was an amazing guide! He made me feel at ease with my first repel, since I am afraid of heights. Highly recommend this trip.

Safe and fun Adventures
A friend and I booked this combo canyoneering/paddleboarding adventure on a whim. For the record, we are two women of a certain age who are more used to braving a spreadsheet than a canyon. But, we thought we would be brave. Our guide, Lillian, was amazing. She explained each step of the process and kept us moving the whole time. Becuase she had such a welcoming and confident attitude, we felt completely safe and well prepared for both parts of our adventure. There's about three miles total of hiking, and while it's not difficult, you will need to prepare with water and decent shoes. The wind on the river that day became extremely gusty, but Paddle Moab worked with us and we were able to go the next morning. Over all a great company, guide and experience - totally worth the cost.

Woo!
My brother and I did the rappelling and paddle boarding combo and had a blast. We were the only two in our group. Nate was an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide who kept every second of the experience interesting. We had never rappelled before but felt completely safe with the equipment and Nate’s guidance. The company worked efficiently to coordinate drop off and pick up. Santo drove us up into the canyon and Christian delivered the transport vehicle to the pickup location. The entire day went smoothly and I would recommend either experience, but definitely do the rappelling and paddle boarding combo if you have the time. We rappelled and hiked down to the Colorado river before breaking for a pristine picturesque picnic. A healthy spread of sandwich meat and veggies were provided with cookies and chips as well. After lunch we had a short ride upriver before paddle boarding. We did have experience with this but still received helpful tips from Nate. The river runs adjacent to Arches National Park and views for phenomenal the entire day. All rappelling equipment was provided but bring a backpack or a way to carry water because you do hike a few miles before and after rappelling. Can’t recommend this experience enough!

a MUST DO while in Moab!
WOW! What a fun experience. We had an absolute blast on our canyoneering/paddle combo tour, and it ended up being the highlight of our trip to Moab. And I can not recommend our guide enough - Thank you Collin!!!!! He was incredibly knowledgeable and enthusiastic, and made us feel safe and supported the whole time. What really stood out was how well Collin tailored the experience for beginners such as ourselves. He was patient and did a fantastic job guiding us. The scenery was absolutely stunning and we got to see places I'm sure a lot of other tourist do not get to see. This trip is perfect for anyone looking to try something new, regardless of experience level. The blend of nature, excitement, and camaraderie made for a truly unforgettable day. Thank you again to everyone at Paddle Moab!

Nate is a Legend!
Our guide Nate Greenberg could not have been better. Taking a middle aged mom and a 10- and 11-yr old canyoneering, we were in the best hands. None of us were experienced, but we came with a willing spirit, and we were rewarded with views, new experiences, and left with some self-confidence we earned along the way. Nate was a great navigator, crowd mitigator, and coach through some natural and mental obstacles all morning. All this to say, no matter your ability, this experience made our trip to Moab a unique adventure and is highly recommended.

Why this scores 74
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Rappelling and Stand Up Paddleboarding Combo: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Moab.
How much does Rappelling and Stand Up Paddleboarding Combo cost?
+
Prices start at $217 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Moab usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Rappelling and Stand Up Paddleboarding Combo take?
+
Plan for about 6 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Moab is not rushed.
Is Rappelling and Stand Up Paddleboarding Combo worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 74 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 40 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Moab, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Rappelling and Stand Up Paddleboarding Combo?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Rappelling and Stand Up Paddleboarding Combo suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Rappelling and Stand Up Paddleboarding Combo?
+
Around 14 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Moab can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Moab and add a light layer if any part of the 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Rappelling and Stand Up Paddleboarding Combo start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Moab within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Moab?
+
Moab is the gateway to Arches and Canyonlands: sunrise arch tours, 4x4 runs on Hell's Revenge, Colorado River rafting, canyoneering and dark-sky stargazing. Park entry timing systems change often, so we weight tours that handle reservations for you. On Outty we rank every Moab experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include HIGHLY RATED U-DRIVE Moab Hell’s Revenge UTV Off-Road Adventure, BEST! Hell's Revenge U-Drive 4X4 Tour in Moab +Dinosaur Tracks!, 5-STAR Moab Hell's Revenge UTV U-DRIVE TOUR + DINO TRACKS. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Moab?
+
April to May and September to October, avoiding peak summer heat. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Moab?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
