A fantastic 9 rapid experience. Keep paddling!!! The weather wasn't great but what better place to spend it than on a river squealing with delight!!

Fantastic experience! Our guide Cade was exceptional! Not only a pro guide but also gave details about our surroundings and its history. Although it rained, it did not put a damper on our parade!! This is a “must do” in Revelstoke!

This year we made a trip thru Canada with our family because of our 25th anniversary. One of the things we wanted to do was wild water rafting trip. We had to re-book this event because of the fires in Jasper. The alternative location was Revelstoke. And we are happy we had this experience here. Together with our tour guides Jay and Graham our bucketlist dream was fullfilled: besides the great ride and fun down the river, those guys told so much nice fact and stories of the places we passed by. The peanut butter passing unfortunatelly was too sweet for us: we end up in the water. The short training instructions helped us to get back in the raft in no time. This experience has been filmed and photo’s were taken. This is a great memory of one of the best experience we’ve ever had. Jay and Graham: Thank you!

The river is no very spicy but the whole team is making this adventure really nice and fun. Enjoy it!!

Excellent trip. We really enjoyed this and had a great guide with Jason who was really interesting and funny. The right amount of adrenaline and chill as you float down the rapids. The only downside was the grumpy young girl who checked us in when we arrived. She wasn't very helpful and we felt like we were interrupting her day by being there. Once you get past that it's well worth it.

Great day wonderful scenery, our guide ( originally from Texas) was a blast. Worth every cent. Highly recommend.

This rafting experience was great for my family of beginners. Rafting guides were friendly, organized, informative and made the trip a blast. I appreciated all the gear to keep us warm and safe, and I loved the snacks on the bus ride home. I would definitely recommend Apex Rafting for your next adventure.

Would totally recommend this trip! It was super fun and we were given the photos without any additional cost!
Ellen_L, Aug 2024
We had an amazing time and Devon was the best guide. So informative and helpful which ensured we had so much fun on the rapids. We can definitely recommend this company for white water rafting.

What a ride! Being a 66 year old with hip arthritis who has kayaked white water in the past I was blown away by the professional yet totally fun way the team looked after us and especially me. You need to be able to bend more than 90 degrees at the waist and maybe don’t have too much weight round the belly as I had trouble. In the end I was a non-paddler but still loved the trip. Graham took care of us and Mark was very knowledgeable about the river and mountains. It’s a long trip with great rapids and amazing views. The dips into the glacial water were a welcome relief in hot weather. I’ll do it again when I’ve lost some weight and had my hip replacement. Highly recommended activity and family company. Free photos are a boon!

Fantastic morning - well organised with excellent guides who kept everything fun but also covered all the safety aspects and checked everything. Never done this before and was a little apprehensive but they were excellent and had all the kit you needed as well as a warming drink and snacks when we got back in the bus. Photos arrived later that day.
Theresa_H, Jul 2024
Well organised, lots of fun, great guides. We had Jason who was brilliant & made whole morning fun & interesting. It’s a 26km ride & there is time to find out more about the area you are rafting in. 100% recommend.
Donna_F, Jul 2024
The trip was absolutely fantastic! Our guide Jason was amazing…full of local
knowledge and lots of jokes. We felt totally safe but had the best time ever….wish we had the time to do the whole trip again!
