★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 291 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $123

Spend about four hours rafting 20 km of British Columbia’s Kicking Horse River with Hydra River Guides. You start on calm class-one water, practice paddling, then tackle class-four rapids. Guides such as Jaro, Kyle, Bill, and Hennessy are known for clear safety advice and good humor.

“Brilliant! Our guide (Kyle) has was superb - made sure everyone had a great time and never felt anything other than safe. Our family of 5 had an awesome trip down the river - hit some really decent rapids and got soaked! Set up at base camp is great - plenty of parking, places to change, hot showers and snacks. Don’t be put off by the necessary safety briefing - at no point on the trip did we feel unsafe or concerned. Fully recommend the trip and Hydra - thanks team👍”
