KOOTENAY RIVER RUNNERS REVIEWS


  • “Amazing Experience”

    What an amazing experience!! This was my second time rafting with my kids, and it did not disappoint. Our guides Mason and Eric were absolutely amazing… so knowledgeable about the local area, they made the trip so fun. We didn’t want it to end. We will be back for sure and recommend Kootenay River Runners to everyone we come across. Thank-you for the beautiful memories.

  • “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

  • “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.

  • “EPIC!”

    Absolute BEST trip ever! I took my apprehensive 7 year old and thrill seeking 10 year old and they both called it EPIC! The crew and guide were amazing- tons of safety knowledge to keep them at ease all while having a little fun and a guide that was super knowledgeable about the water, the geography…everything! I almost forgot lunch- LOVED that they bought bakery from the local- so fresh! 110% recommendation. And we even got FREE photos on Facebook! Champs indeed

  • “Rafting the Rockies”

    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.
