We are very happy with our decision to go with Lost Paddle for our rafting trip. Staff were fun and professional, and the lunch provided exceeded our expectations. The only sort-of negative is that the first half of the day was a little too low-key (lots of flat water) for my family, but my kids were too young to do the Royal Gorge. Still, lots of good times, and good memories. If we happen to vacation here again in a few years, we will certainly look up Lost Paddle for their Royal Gorge tour.

I highly recommend this rafting outfitter. The guide “Frank” was fun, entertaining and shared local history alone the way. I will back next season.
