Advanced Royal Gorge Whitewater Rafting Trip

Overview
Royal Gorge whitewater rafting is the ultimate half/full day rafting adventure trip in Colorado. Huge waves, steep technical drops, and almost continuous whitewater rapids in a narrow canyon await you with rapids like Sledgehammer, Wallslammer, the Narrows, Boateater and the infamous Sunshine Falls. The Royal Gorge may demand so much attention you don't even notice the world famous Royal Gorge Bridge 1053 feet above the river. This exhilarating trip is recommended for rafters or adventurers in good physical shape who are ready for aggressive paddling. Our Royal Gorge whitewater rafting trips are our most popular advanced trips! If you are seeking lots of excitement, this trip is for you and your group. Lunch will be served at a stop on the river.

Arkansas River Tours are professional! We had a mixed family group of thrill seekers and a hesitant and scared family member. Our guide Zach Otte provided a trip which covered all the bases. Unparalleled thrills for all and yet also being so attentive that the hesitant member now can’t wait to go back again!

The guides were great. The food was good. The equipment was good . The company, however, will overbook. They will put 7 people and a guide on a 6 person boat with a guide. I have near had a company do that in my 30 years of white water rafting. Also, the company was deceitful in its ads and discussion of the two-day trip. They take you out of the river the first day and take you to a campground. They pick you up the second day and take you to a different point of the river. It was not a continuous trip as other multi-day trips have been done that camp out of the boat.
