Our family took the 1/2 day Bighorn Sheep Canyon trip for the first time! I can't say enough great things about our FANTASTIC experience with our tour guide, ETHAN! We had such a BLAST!! Our family of four and a couple on their honeymoon made such a great group! From the beginning all the tour guides were so friendly and personable. In regards to safety, ART's well being and care of all their clients' was clearly a top priority. Ethan was such a cool guy to hang out with for a few hours and was very encouraging. He quickly taught us the basics of paddling and demonstrated the importance of working efficiently as a team, He even knew a bit about the river and told us some fun stories about the rock formations. We rode seamlessly through the different styles of rapids with Ethan's' knowledge and experience. He definitely allowed us to appreciate the intense excitement of the rivers' rapids while maintaining safety along the way. We took advantage of a 'safe spot' close to the raft to swim and cool off near the end of the course. Highly recommend this business, check them out!! We had a very memorable day. THANKYOU!!
