Tours include your raft or kayak plus life jackets, paddles, and safety kits. No hidden fees.  

The starting location is at Shouldice Park and ending at the Calgary Zoo West Parking Lot. For your launch, please arrive 30 minutes before your booking time for orientation. We are located down at the end of the Shouldice Park parking lot - just look for our signs and the big containers. 

Basic paddling knowledge is required. If you've never paddled before just let us know and we will teach you! You can also hire a guide to go with you if you're not feeling comfortable. 

Please note that transportation is not included - rafters are responsible for organizing their own way back to the launch site. Most people bring two cars, or book an Uber / Taxi to take them back to the start.

An Uber or Taxi is
cheaper than a shuttle in most cases as a shuttle costs $8 per person and an Uber is $20. It's also way more convenient as you can leave as soon as you get off the raft. Once again, hassle free for your benefit!

We recommend bringing a dry bag or resealable bag to protect your valuables. You just never know how wet you'll get!

Children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
