Half Day – Royal Gorge Rafting
Do something epic!
Arkansas River
Half-Day
Advanced Class IV-V
Our Royal Gorge white water rafting trips are the ultimate half-day adventure in Colorado. Huge waves, steep technical drops, and almost continuous whitewater rapids in a narrow canyon await you with rapids like Sledgehammer, Wallslammer, the Narrows, Boateater and the infamous Sunshine Falls. Royal Gorge rafting may demand so much attention you don’t even notice the world famous Royal Gorge Bridge 1053′ above the river. This exhilarating trip is recommended for rafters or adventurers in good physical shape who are ready for aggressive paddling, looking for high adventure and able to swim.

Trip Reviews
2 Day Raft Trip Was Unforgettable!
★★★★★
“I went on the 2 day Gunnison Gorge raft trip and had the most incredible time. I've been on a few multi-day trips, but this one takes the cake. The guides were very skilled, knowledgable, and friendly. The views were unforgettable and rapids thrilling. My favorite part was the waterfalls on the second day.”

Can't Recommend This Rafting Trip Enough!
★★★★★
“I've rafted on some rad rivers before, but this was by far my favorite! I did the Browns Canyon full day trip with a couple of buddies and it will be a trip I remember for life. Even though the rapids were pretty intense, our raft always felt in control. The guides are top notch! Great communication, great people, and a great time. I can't recommend Arkansas River Tours enough.”
