We will even pick you up at your hotel. Conveniently located opposite Princes Island Park, you can choose from a 2 hour float to 4 hours. Bring a snack and sit back and enjoy. This is fun for the whole family.

Great value for the price, which included a parking spot while we were rafting and the raft was already inflated at the starting point (Baker Park). At the end of rafting down the Bow River (Calgary, Alberta), staff met us at the river. Helped us dock the raft. Then they took the raft out of the river and back to the rental office. The raft, oars and pump were of very good quality.

We have taken both the kayaks and the raft - both are great options. The raft is relaxing and the kayak is a bit more active. This is a great way to see the city and some wildlife. The Paddle Station crew is really professional at both the entry and exit points. Both times we took an Uber to the start and then walked through the East Village for a beer at the end. It's an easy walk from the exit point to the East Village. If you have 2-4 hours to do a cool activity in Calgary - I would highly recommend a trip on the river with the Paddle Station.

I rented a 1200 sportster for 4 days to take in some of the amazing Alberta and BC scenery. The late model bike I rented was in excellent condition and Marion, the rental Manager, looked after me extremely well right from my first telephone contact until the return of the bike: excellent advice on routes; very clear and agreeable Ts &Cs; discounted rate for 3+ days; free use of (effective!) wet-weather gear. Highly recommended.
