One of the highlights of... - One of the highlights of our trip - we've never done any rafting before, so this was perfect for beginners. It felt like a very easy but fun roller coaster on water with stretches of meditative floating. I went with my parents, who are in their 60s and 70s, and this was doable for them. The water is cold, and at a certain point, they let you go into the water if you want (while holding on). I would recommend a bathing suit as they suggest on their listing - changing while damp and also trying not to expose yourself isn't easy, so I think a one-piece bathing suit would feel less exposing. Molly was a super chill guide with a sense of humour. I want to do Class 3 rapids now! Recommend doing this experience

So much fun! - Such an amazing experience! I was a bit worried about my 9 year old, but he had a blast! He even sat at the front of the raft catching all the waves. Its definitely an experience he will never forget. Seb and Molly were amazingly informative and friendly, not to mention hilarious. They kept us safe and laughing the whole trip. I will definitely be coming back for a more intense run with my husband. And too think I was scared at first. It was truly a wonderful experience. 10 of 10!

Amazing rafting day! - We did this trip during our stay in Jasper and it was one of our favourite days! Will 100% do it again when we’re next in Jasper. Our guides David, Ainsley, Annaja and Eddie were all super lovely people and very engaging and entertaining! They kept the adventure fun, informative and safe. We had great chats with David in our raft while we enjoyed getting soaked in the rapids! All equipment and kit was provided which made it super easy for us as we were travelling from Scotland so couldn’t carry anything with us. Just make sure to bring your trunks! Thank you so much! We will be back!

Refreshing on a hot day - Dave was a great guide, super knowledgeable about the area. Made the experience much more fun with his anecdotes. Would have liked to be on the water a little bit longer given the price.

Such a fun experience - The rapids were very enjoyable! We had Connor and Seb as our guides who were informative, communicated well and we enjoyed their humour. We were on Connor’s boat who was personable and ensured we all had fun. Would recommend this experience.
