Top Ottawa Float Trips

What a great day on the water my friend and I had. Sophie our pickup/ drop off driver and boat Captain was amazing, you knew as soon as you meet her that she loves her job and her main focuse was to ensure everyone had the ultimate best time. The ride down the river was relaxing and fun. We had snacks( supplied) drinks ( personal you brought them and there was a cooler to keep them in) laughs. We could get our of the boat and float down the river in out life jackets, jump of a rope swing or just relax in the boat. What a fabulous day and would highly recommend.

The best day ever!! Fun from start to finish. The prise is very fair and food was excellent. Would go back anytime and for sure will try other tours. 5*

A beautiful August day, spent with friends in a comfy and sturdy raft on calm clear water, a host Brandon who was entertaining, funny and did most of the paddling for us, a bbq when we finished and axe throwing makes for a perfect summer day. Cannot recommend it enough. This is just one of the many experiences you can have with Aventure Outaouais. Check out their website.

This was my first experience rafting and a better company could not have been chosen for this. This will be one of many tours with Aventure Outaouais. Brandon Bolduc is the owner, a great driver, an awesome guide, a good playlist maker and a quick witted funny fellow who entertained us all the 15k way down the Coulonge River. It was a wonderful day of sunshine, beautiful beaches, calm water, bbq and axe throwing. A wonderful day!

The tour was so so much fun. Host and guide were so helpful and informative. The rafting was easy and the river was safe and warm . We just floated down the river to lunch , which was delicious.

Had a great time! Will definitely recommend this tour. Thank you Brandon for the amazing experience!

Brandon is very professional, he gives safety instructions and takes the welfare of the group very seriously. When you say all inclusive, there is NOTHING missing. The descent of the river is beautiful, very easy and I even had the chance to swim. The meal was excellent, followed by good ice cream, what more to ask for! Really perfect day! I'd give more 25/5 than 5/5. I highly recommend this excursion. Have fun!

This was a wonderful way to spend a day out. Everything is run smoothly and easy. The Kayaking was easy and the ice cream was delicious. It was worth going on this trip; a trip away from home for a day to the quiet outdoors.

Three friends and I booked this kayaking and lookout tour for my birthday. The communication leading up to the day was informative and very helpful. The bus was on time and as we drove to the Rivière Picanoc Brandon was great fun and explained everything in detail and what to expect. It was a perfect day to meander slowly down a beautiful quiet river. We had quick swim about halfway along the 5 km. The ride to the Blue Sea lookout was bumpy but the music playlist was awesome. Lunch was very good indeed with an amazing views across the hills. The drive home was just as bumpy - Quebec roads for you!! - we stopped at a wonderful little ice cream stand and had two scoop waffle cones - yummy. To sum up we had a wonderful day out - and would thoroughly recommend this day trip to all in the Ottawa/Gatineau area.

Great day trip and very well organized. Brandon was a great guide. The kayaking was very low effort and relaxing. Lots of food provided including lunch, snacks, and the best ice cream. You will not go hungry!

This was such a great day! Our guide Brandon took care of everything and made sure we had the best time. The kayaking was actually super relaxing. Brandon was very helpful, giving plenty of directions and making sure everyone was comfortable and knew what to do. The river does most of the work, plus we got to stop at a couple beaches and go for a swim. The food in the lunchbox was delicious and on top of that, we got ice cream! The tour company provides pretty much everything you can think of for the day, so there is absolutely zero stress if you forget anything. You really can just hop in the van and enjoy your day. This was a full day and a great idea if you're looking for something fun to do this summer. I cannot recommend enough.

Wow, what a fantastic guided tour! We made great discoveries, accompanied by an exceptional guide, in a festive atmosphere! Thank you for taking care of us like we were your family! See you soon !

We loved our day, we were a small group which gave us proximity to others and especially the guide who gave us lots of relevant information! We returned with a full stomach and a well-rested head, thank you for this adventure!❤️

This company does EVERYTHING for you! You just show up and enjoy the experience! You are provided with travel to and from all visit points, you have free snacks on the tour bus, all the equipment you need and a mini kayaking 101 lesson. The river was peaceful and easy to navigate for any novice kayaker and provided a lot of great photo opportunities. The summit tower was incredible and we enjoyed a great boxed lunch from a local restaurant. But that wasn't it..... the visit to an ice cream shop (with a pig to greet you) and chocolaterie in Wakefield were the cherry on top of a great day! We learned a lot about the area, its history and about all the wonderful local artisan/businesses. Brandon was a great tour guide!!

Would give it 5 stars but unfortunately I never got the chance to experience this tour. They cancelled because of weather (which btw never ended up showing up). I’m not mad at the tour guides because I understand they are liable. Just a bit disappointed. The refund was given within 24 hours so I’m happy with that. The people in charge were really nice, it’s a shame that I wasn’t able to join their adventures. Overall the customer service and kindness was amazing but since I never got the chance to do it I’ll have to keep my stars low. Hopefully someone else will have the opportunity to enjoy this.

I can’t recommend this day trip enough. We had a beautiful day leisurely kayaking along the river, followed by a delicious lunch while enjoying the views on the summit. Our tour was then followed by delicious ice cream and chocolate. The tour was so well coordinated and organized. Brandon was awesome and from the moment he picked us up, went out of his way to ensure that everyone had a memorable day. Thanks for a fantastic day Brandon and we look forward to booking with you again.Tania
