KOOTENAY RIVER RUNNERS REVIEWS


  • “Worth every penny”

    Was definitely a fun experience! Worth every penny. Our guide, Zach, was also super cool and giving out a lot of fun facts in between paddling. We were nervous at first but it all went away during the activity. Highly recommended to try when you’re in the Panorama, Invermere, Kootenay area

  • “Best whitewater rafting experience”

    Whitewater rafting at its finest. Dean guided us down the river through the rapids with experience and incredible knowledge. The entire team is professional and keeps safety their number one priority. We will return in early summer next year to do another tour down the river. Thank you, Dean, and I hope you have an adventurous and safe Winter. See you next year.

  • “This is my second river rafting tour with this company”

    Great rafting adventure and even better staff. Everyone was great, especially Tyler our river guide and afternoon entertainment. He kept the energy up and everyone entertained. This is my second river rafting tour with this company. Given how the river changes you could go every year and never have the same experience twice.

  • “Safety is a top priority”

    Definitely recommend these guys. Staff were friendly and engaging, safety is obviously a top priority, and the guides and equipment inspire confidence. Dean was a great guide, very personable and thoroughly experienced. I was impressed with how he handled the boat and made sure everyone from front to back got to fully experience the rapids. Some really fun rapids too – I hope to go back in spring sometime when they’re really pumping.

  • “Highly recommend going with Kootenay River Runners”

    We had a fantastic time rafting the Kicking Horse in August. Our guide Dean was super knowledgeable and was a delight to raft with. On a river full of operators, I highly recommend going with Kootenay River Runners if you want an awesome time rafting in Golden.

  • “Exceptional experience for our first time rafting”

    My kids were a little nervous before we started but once we got on the water they felt safe and comfortable. We never once doubted Zach and you could tell he knows that creek like the back of his hand. Exceptional experience for our first time rafting. It won’t be our last!
