I need to preface my review by saying I was extremely nervous—while I hike, bike and kayak regularly, I tend to shy away from more extreme activities. While Adam was not my guide (he was in the other raft), he provided the safety briefing for the group, and he knew I was nervous. But his instructions were clear and very reassuring and he made sure I felt comfortable. In the middle of the trip, he even checked to make sure I was doing ok and having fun! My actual guide, Drew, was amazing. He mixed his dry humor with interesting facts and stories about the local area, the wildlife, landscape etc. But most importantly, he was an expert guide, and after the first section of rapids, I was relaxed and had complete trust in him. The whole trip was outstanding—I laughed so much and had a total blast! If I can work it into my schedule, I plan on returning in June when the high water is running and I will definitely request Adam and Drew! 1000% recommend this rafting company!

We rafted at Royal Gorge in Canon City and had Jeff as our guide. Needless to say, having 5 women on their annual girls trip was a handful , but Jeff handled it like a PRO!! We gave him a few laughs, but he gave us the raft trip of a lifetime!! If you are thinking of rafting the Royal Gorge I definitely recommend Royal Gorge Rafting and ask for Jeff!! So fun!!!!

We had a great time on this trip. The river is a blast, lots of twists and turns as well as rocks to navigate. Challenging but fun. Our guide Andrew was excellent, both in trip guidance and information about the river and surrounding areas. We will be back next year for the high water June trip!
