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.

We have rafted with several companies over the years in this area. However ART has the best guides and the most consistent service. We would not use anyone else anymore. Ask for Julie!

Booked a trip for the full day Royal Gorge tour but due to the high water and the gorge being closed they took us out on a different part of the river. We still had a blast and our guide Ethan was very professional and knowledgeable but was also a lot of fun and really enhanced the whole experience!

Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!! We are so happy that, even though the Royal Gorge was under the high water advisory, you all still had a fantastic time on other stretch of river--which is still adrenaline-pumping! Also, we are totally going to pass along your very warm kudos to Ethan S! He truly does know how to make a great experience even greater!
