Top Calgary Float Trips

Felt extremely safe during entire trip. Every went above and beyond making sure you’re having fun and comfortable. My only suggestion is to add more details to what expect and what to bring.

Great fun. Staff were fun and energetic. Best to wear swim suits under wet suit and change clothes at your car at the end. We paid $20 CAD to get the high resolution photos on a USB drive but low resolution pics are free from their website

Great family or friend group experience for your Banff trip. We had a family group of 4 ages 44-76. But families with children were there too. On a warm sunny day in late August, the water was refreshing. Full wet suit and booties are provided, with a helmet and life jacket. One hour of preparation including check-in, instructions for wetsuit and gear, receive gear and get dressed, 20-minute school bus transport from meeting spot to the rafting start, on-site instructions, and loading into raft. 90 minutes rafting. Then 5-minute bus ride from ending back to meeting spot, change into your dry clothes, return your wetsuit and safety gear, enjoy snacks and free photos . A bit of effort required for paddling, but not difficult. More work in first half of the trip. They will combine parties into groups of 7-9 people in a boat plus the guide, who gives instructions along the entire route. Must leave wallet, phone, jewelry, towels, shoes in your car. Just yourself and your swimsuit. Guide Dani was phenomenal.

This was a great raft trip. Appreciated how close we were and the bus ride wasn’t really long especially after the trip. Our guide Dani is super friendly and entertaining. She even managed her Spanish skills with the Spanish family we had. Our child enjoyed every minute in the front a great trip overall.

Our group of 9 had an absolutely brilliant day! We are all 60 plus in age so we weren’t looking for ‘extreme’ white water rafting. Our excursion today was had the perfect mix of fun and taking in the gorgeous scenery of the Kananaskis. Two in our group were from Ireland that had never done anything like this before., and they loved it! The guides were very good at reviewing all the safety protocols mixed in with some humour as well. Our guide Georgia was very professional. We learned that she took her training in her native New Zealand, and has experience in rafting in many parts of the world. Base camp was easily accessible from Calgary. As well it is a short distance to Canmore where we finished off our day with a lovely dinner. We would highly recommend this experience! Thanks for a day we will all remember!

Entire team was great. It was overall a fun and memorable experience. Our guide Georgia and as very experienced. Felt safe the entire time.

Prami was a great guide and made our trip a lot of fun. This is a very easy ride for most with a bit of thrill added for laughs. We will go again.

Looked after from A to Z really well. Arrival, explanations, use of wet suit, and safety. Really happy to tip the boat captain!

This rafting adventure was outstanding. This company is well organized and employs safety-oriented staff. From beginning to end, our entire family had a memorable excursion. With family members from 7 to 72 years old, we all agreed that this activity was one of our best in Banff region! I highly recommend this trip.

Shac was the best. We had a beautiful day on the river and she was an excellent guide. Definitely worth the value and what beautiful scenery.

My family and I had a fantastic afternoon out with Jeff ( driving our bus) and Joe our brilliant guide. The whole team were encouraging and welcoming but most importantly safe getting us as inexperienced rafters down the river and having a great time. Would highly recommend

We had an amazing experience with Chinook Rafting, and a big part of that was because of our guide, Nicco! He was professional, friendly, knowledgeable, and made the whole rafting experience fun and exciting. Nicco did a great job guiding us through the river while making sure everyone felt safe and comfortable. His positive energy and great sense of humor made the experience even more memorable. Highly recommended—ask for Nicco if you want an unforgettable rafting adventure!

Our guide, Laura, was awesome! She was fun, knowledgeable and entertaining. The rapids were just right for our family.

My family had an absolute blast at this place! The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. A huge thank you to Rachel for making our visit so special. We can’t wait to return!

We had no experience rafting and loved this experience! Family of four with one adult child and one 16 yo. A few were quite nervous but start to finish this outfit does fabulous! Prep email was informational. Instructions and safety briefing were thorough. We loved our guide Jarred! We were paired with a family of 5 so 9 of us plus the guide. There are restrooms and changing rooms at the meeting point but all you need is swimsuit. You leave all clothes, shoes and towels in your car. They provide wet suit and boots and helmet. You take a bus to / from the river, they take photos that they then provide included in your price. You start off practicing with the guide and then hit the water. We felt prepared and safe and had SO much fun! Some rapids to start and then a relaxing float to end the tour. Recommend a change of clothes in your car- you will stink after the experience. They provide drinks and snacks after you get back.

We had an amazing time rafting with Alex and his crew! Our kids are 10 and 14 and loved it. It is cold, and we did get wet, but it was worth all the fun. Alex was especially attuned to a medical condition in our group, and we felt super safe. The photos provided are great.
