We had a fabulous time rafting with our guide Ryan from Ottawa. Weather was great, water was cold, laughter was plentiful, and we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. I would recommend this team and the experience to anyone seeking a fun day in the Rockies.

The rafting guide, Ben, was very professional and witty to help my family enjoy the rafting. The rafting itself suited well the level of my family including one minor.

Thank you for this awesome review! We are so glad that your family enjoyed whitewater rafting with our company and staff! We hope to see your family back again sometime soon!
Our guide Ben was super helpful and informative although he scared the crap out of us during the safety briefing! Rapids we were told we’re really low for the the time of year- pretty sure at least one of us would have fallen out if it had been high.

Hi Tracy,
Thanks so much for your review. That safety briefing is definitely thorough and it is totally normal to feel nervous before the trip. Glad you had an awesome time with Ben ... and yes in higher water comes more adventure, but also more risk. However our guides are professionals and highly trained to provide safe, fun trips in all conditions.
Thanks again for joining us!
Great rafting trip with a very nice guide who was friendly and knowledgeable. Beautiful scenery an awesome way to spend an afternoon.
Great family fun. Guides very easy going and very professional. Food was delicious. Highly recommended for first timers.

Hey there! Happy to hear you not only enjoyed the class 3/4 rapids that the Kicking Horse River has to offer, but also that our BBQ masters (guides) did a great job on and off the water. Keeping you safe, having fun and well fed!
