This was my 8th rafting trip in Colorado since 1995. I’ve also done 3 in New Mexico in that time. This was by far the best rafting adventure I’ve had.
I can’t recommend Arkansas River Tours (ART) enough. It starts with location. Just minutes outside Canon City with easy access off HHWY 50. Friendly staff greet you as you enter the clean facility. Rafts and equipment were the best I’ve been offered too.
Best part of rafting with ART is the guides. They’re funny, energetic, and lead the rafters in silly chants to get everyone amped up.
Our guide, Amanda, was awesome. The BEST guide I’ve had in ALL my trips. She’s funny - corny jokes and all. Amanda’s also a knowledgeable and skilled guide.
Had a blast and my 17 year old son smiled the whole time. Thanks Amanda and ART. We will be back.
Trust me, choose Arkansas River Tours. You will be stoked you did.
