Echo Canyon rafting is the way to go. Josh was behind the counter this season (we truly believe that he has found his new calling in life, he might argue to get back on the river). He is very knowledgeable and explained both trips we were going to take that day. Trinity was our morning guide through Big horn sheep canyon. This was the more family friendly but also not your typical stroll down the river. She did a great job explaining exactly what we would need to know to have a great time. Grant was our guide for the second part of our day down the Royal Gorge. This was a beautiful trip with stunning views. It also came with some adventure as we made our way down through the challenges of the river! I would highly recommend the royal gorge if you don't mind some bumps, fast action and putting in the work to keep yourself and others in the raft. Make sure you ask for Grant if you decide this route is best for you. He won't steer you wrong. (Literally). A couple tipsBring cash to tip your guides (they have an ATM if you forget like us)Good food and beverage on site. they do have some quick options if you are in a hurry. It was well worth the price of admission and we would love to do it again in the future.

Great time on our whitewater rafting adventure with Pam! We had four people in our boat (not counting Pam), including a 14 and 9 year old. It was just enough adventure without being terrifying, and everyone had an amazing time. We were surprised to see that they had free wet suits and water shoes to use. Easy parking and a nice changing area. Would definitely recommend this excursion when you are visiting the area.

We had a wonderful time river rafting! It is expensive, but well worth it. They provide all the equipment you need, included in the price. Luke from Mississippi was a great guide! We were very inexperienced and he did a great job making sure we knew what we were doing! Enjoyed the whole thing! I don't think we'll ever raft anywhere else besides Echo Canyon River Expedition! They're awesome!!

I had an excellent rafting expedition down the Royal Gorge with Echo Canyon River Expedition. We had a wonderful guide named Audrey who was very competent and sure-handed while directing the rest of us newbies down some occasionally hairy white-water rapids. I was also impressed with their facilities and equipment, everything was modern, clean, and new-looking, from the bathrooms/changing rooms to the adjacent bar and grill (which is owned by the same company). Would highly recommend this company for a river rafting trip.

We did the half day trip through the Royal Gorge in mid-September. Alfredo was our guide, and he was awesome! He shared lots of history of the area and was super skilled for our first time rafters. Echo Canyon is a great outfitter; they were easy to book with, easy to find, provided wetsuits/booties/splash guards/helmets at no extra charge, and were very professional with great customer service. The gorge was beautiful, and the river was amazing It was lower and not as fast since it was the end of the season, but it was still a great rafting experience. Lots of rocks and technical parts of the river to raft through. I would highly recommend going any time of the season. We'll be back in June when the river is high!

Needless to say I am a first timer !!The expedition starting with some great information delivered by Jeff. Clear instructions on what was to come and what they needed you to do next. My boyfriend and I had our 10 year old son with us and Wyatt was our guide. He gave clear instructions, practice time, made my son comfortable on where he wanted to sit on the boat. Our boat was off to a rocky start but we got it together real quick and Wyatt gave great positive feedback so we could keep going. Great part was no one fell out the boat !! awesome day and possible I may be open to doing it again.
