So much fun! - Amazing experience! We had a great tour guide (Andy!) but the entire group of leaders were very knowledgeable, friendly, and professional! All equipment is sanitized. The rapids were exhilarating!

Worth every penny💵💵💵💵. What amazing days we had! - Fantastic fun experience, we did the Athabasca river 5 mile the first day and loved it so much we had to come back for more. We booked the Sunwapta tour with pickup from Whistler Campground today and it delivered. But our guides (Liam and Nate) were great fun, skilled and good company. We felt completely safe while still feeling the thrills of all the rapids. Had we had more time, we would most likely do one again

Incredible! - What an amazing experience! Throughout the whole trip, we felt safe as well as entertained. We had great conversations with Jimmy throughout our trip and could tell he loves what he does. They had a great system for distributing/collecting gear that helped to ensure our comfort and convenience. Would definitely recommend (and did to our fellow Chicago friends who were in the area just after us!)

Best team ever! - Absolutely book this adventure! Jordan and company were completely on their game and pumped up to offer the best experience and education in rafting. Also, the view of outdoors and mountaintop line from the middle of the river is a view you just don’t happen upon from roadside. So book your adventure and this team will not only offer you rafting, but good laughs with energetic personalities! Rock on guys! You’re the best👊🏻
