Our ART Bighorn Sheep Canyon Whitewater Rafting Trip was the highlight of our trip to Colorado! Booking was super easy through their website for a raft and rail package and their info on what to expect/what to bring was spot on. Paula and the other nice lady at the front desk were super helpful with places to visit and eat I. The area. Our biggest highlight was our guide, Ron Jon, he was AWESOME!!!! He is super knowledgeable about rafting and the area, has a great sense of humor, made a great lunch, and was great about making this a super fun trip for my kids. We will definitely be back!!

We had a fantastic time with Arkansas River Tours: 1/2 day Bighorn Sheep Canyon with our river guide, Ethan. It was a beautiful day, the water was cold but we were thankful for the wetsuit rentals. Ethan was knowledge and fun, pointing out the rock formations in the beautiful mountains along the river. Fun for the whole family!
