Roberta & Joshua Anderson - Dream Vacations

Tame the waters like a pro when you join the Adventure Company on a white-water rafting trip on the Colorado River. Beginners and experts can choose from more than 25 trips on four rivers like the 2-5 day "wilderness style" raft trip that includes comfortable camping and gourmet outdoor food. It's the ultimate water recreation experience.

Enjoy outdoor beauty as you bask in the mist of cascading waterfalls at The Broadmoor Seven Falls in Colorado Springs. Challenge your physical endurance and climb the 184 steps along the mountainside, up to the magnificent platform to watch the falls tumble 181 feet down its solid granite cliffside. Afterwards treat yourself to the Ponderosa Cafe to refuel and Main Curio Shop for memorable souvenirs.

Jump on the hottest transportation craze by touring Colorado Springs on a Segway with Adventures Out West. You'll speed around on the gravity-defying gizmo at 12 miles per hour in the great outdoors and see the Garden of the Gods like you never seen it before.

The Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center is home to three important cultural institutions: an art museum, a theater company and an art school. Visitors can enjoy seeing permanent and traveling modern art collections, musical and non-musical original plays, and taking community-based art classes.
