Since 1973, Arkansas River Tours has been offering exceptional whitewater rafting and guided float fishing on the Arkansas River. We offer ¼ day Cottonwood Family Floats for families with kids 5 years old and up. Choose ½ day or full day adventures in Bighorn Sheep Canyon or a full day trip in Brown’s Canyon for groups wanting the exhilaration of Class III-IV whitewater. Minimum age is 8. The most challenging rapids await those experienced rafters or adventurous first-timers ready for the Class IV+ whitewater of the Royal Gorge. We also offer Mini-Vacation trips combining 2 or 3 river sections with all of your meals and riverside camping at our base in Cotopaxi, CO. just 25 minutes from Salida. We are the only Salida area outfitter offering exclusive packages with the Royal Gorge Scenic Railway. This trip combines a morning ½ day Bighorn Sheep Canyon trip, a riverside BBQ steak or chicken lunch and an afternoon train ride through the Royal Gorge. Anglers will enjoy our fly fishing float trips for Brown and Rainbow trout on this productive Gold Medal river.
