Reviewed By 331darwinh - Calgary, Canada

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.

Calgary River Experience

Embark on Calgary’s only guided river experience, view downtown Calgary from the original highway, The Bow River. There are lots of amazing architecture in Calgary, old and new bridges, as well as new and historic office and residential high-rises which we have the opportunity to see as we float down the river. It is a view of the inner city that even long-time residents of Calgary have never expeineced.
