Since 1980, New Wave Rafting Company is one of New Mexico's premier river outfitters. Located on the Rio Grande River between Santa Fe and Taos, New Wave guides family-friendly trips from the mildest to the wildest in spectacular settings.

Exciting whitewater river trips include

The Taos Box of the Rio Grande - This full-day trip traverses 16 miles of wilderness gorge, encountering demanding rapids guaranteed to get you wet. This is our most exciting trip and is NOT for the timid.

The Rio Grande Racecourse - This half-day trip features an action-packed five miles of moderate whitewater perfect for beginners.

The Rio Grande Gorge - This full-day trip combines a morning scenic float with an exciting afternoon of whitewater on the Racecourse. This trip is ideal for families.

The New Wave 'No Wave' Family Float - For those with young children or aged family members, this morning half-day float (with lunch) is just the ticket. Since it accompanies the above full-day trip, some family members can go the whole way, with the floaters getting off after lunch.

... and more.
