Relax as you cruise along the calm parts of the river, taking in the scenery of craggy mountains and verdant trees. Keep an eye out for wildlife like eagles and other birds soaring overhead and bears or deer walking along the banks of the river. But don’t relax for too long — this is still an adventurous river.

Traveler Reviews

Our guide Paz was amazing!!! It was the first time we did Rafting and we enjoy it so much!!!! Highly recommended this experience if you are visiting Banff National Park

This rafting trip was amazing and we had a great time! Our tour guide David was awesome and told us some great stories and was a great leader too! I would highly recommend this tour company and rafting experience.

A wonderful time! was quite worried about the weather during august as there was a forecast of rain however the sunshine and tour guides pulled through. The rafting itself was fun- might go up the next level for a bit more of an adventure but definitely family friendly. The photos were such a nice touch- high quality and easily available, perfect way to capture everything. Pas our tour guide was wonderful, she kept conversation going, engaged in some water fights with us and really taught us everything we needed to enjoy our ride. The whole thing was well organised, would have preferred better place to change/ more available places once back to the river base. The snacks and refreshments that are included were only a few things although it sounds like there would be more- still good nonetheless. Would definitely go again!

Was a great time!! Tadhg, our guide, did a tremendous job not only navigating the rapids but entertaining the entire boat full of people with stories and his humorous way. Great adventure I would recommend this to any one with a family looking for and afternoon adventure.

Excellent tour! Had a blast rafting down the river with our Irish guide Ty. Next time we will try the class 4 rapids.
