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.

Our guide Calvin was great! When I have out of town guests in (I live in Co Springs) I usually take them to Browns Canyon. This was way better... and closer. Loved it,

Run very professionally and efficient! Check in was a snap, equipment issued quickly. Guides checked and rechecked the fit of our life vests. Safety briefing covered all bases. Our guide was Austin and he did a fantastic job!! The river was high so it was an adventurous ride, Austin got us through brilliantly. Our group of 6 had a great time. Really enjoyed our trip. Highly recommend!

We could not of had a better experience with A.R.T. We brought 35 total guys, which is a really large group. We camped out at their camping spot along the river & rafted with them for 3 days, including the Royal Gorge. They made us feel like kings, and we have no complaints. Could not recommend them enough. Our guides were absolutely amazing - if you ever have the chance to have Cat, Ron Jon, Austin, or Calvin, we recommend them. They were professional, knowledgeable, & a ton of fun. We have zero complaints, and nothing but praise for the guides and the company. We even picked up their merchandise from their store to support them! Whether you are going for a day of family fun, or you’re bringing a large group for a multi-day stent, Arkansas River Tours is the best way to go. We will be using them from now on every time we return.
