Arkansas River Tours did an amazing job making us feel safe and comfortable during our rafting adventure. Zack was a great guide and we clear on his directions/coaching on when and how to paddle. We felt he was in control the entire time and also did a great job watching out for the other boats that were part of our tour. I highly recommend ART to anyone that is interested in white water rafting with children. If your a beekeeper, bring Zack some honey.

Great people to get our times set up to compliment our trip to Colorado. Arrived to find everything as planned. Our guide, Calvin, was super! We got to know everyone on our raft, had a great ride, and look forward to coming back again along with recommending it to our friends. You will love it!

Our party of five completed our trip on July 7th. Our guide was Danny, and he was fun to work with. We paddled most of the trip, and all felt it was well worth it. We stayed safe by following Danny's instructions, but had some intense moments. Most of us felt this adventure was one of our top 2 of our whole vacation. Arkansas River Tours was a great choice!
