Excellent half day rafting the river today. guides did a good job of making it fun and exciting even though the water levels are low. Great Safety awareness. Thank you, we are contemplating doing it in kayaks before we leave the area for another year... hard to fit all the fun into one holiday!

Awesome time kayak rafting! Great people and awesome experience. Will definitely do this again!
Fun, friendly, knowledgeable staff. It was my first time rafting so I wasn't really sure what to expect. However from my first encounter with the staff everything was upbeat and professional. They gave me a life jacket and helmet within 2 minutes of check in, told me which raft I was in and introduced me to the guide. On the surface everything looked like bedlam yet it was actually very well organized. We hopped on the old school bus and headed for the river. I was fortunate to get the seat behind the one open window. (Oops, I mean air conditioner). At the river if you stand too close to the trailer you may get volunteered to help unload the rafts & kayaks. This is where the rubber meets the road. Although everything was still upbeat we now had a thorough safety lesson about what could go wrong and how to help get ourselves or anyone else out of any trouble we may encounter. After the safety lesson, the offer was made to anyone that was now feeling apprehensive about going down the river to return back to the base and without judgement their money would be fully refunded. Cudos to the company for doing that. So, onto the river. Travis was our guide and somewhat arranged the paddlers so there was equal strength on each side. This was a great theory until TRAVIS BROKE HIS PADDLE and borrowed one from one of the other paddlers. He taught us when to paddle, when to stop, when to get in the boat, and when to get back on the sides. There were stops so people could swim and water cannons to engage in battles with other rafts throughout the trip. I was there to have fun and from the screams and laughter it appeared like everyone else was as well. Thanks for the adventure guys. See you next year.
Awesome shop with fishing and rafting gear. Also went rafting on the St. Mary River, had a brilliant experiance, was very fun.
We do two trips a year with Kootenay Rafting Company for our students here at the College of the Rockies. Every trip down the river is an amazing experience for the students. We recently did a trip on the St Mary's and it was an awesome day! Lots of fun and laughs had by all. Ben, Alonso, Jess, Mason and Riley are great and offered lots of interesting information throughout the trip. Looking forward to our trip in September down the Elk River.
Superb service with consistently friendly and professional guides. We've gone 4 years in a row. Ben (lead guide) always provides a great experience. Riley gets hung up on fewer rocks though . PS: Riley encouraged me to post that comment after my girls made it. They're 9 & 12 and loved rafting with a female guide. Girl power!
