The absolute best time rafting Toby Creek! - We had an excellent time rafting Toby Creek with Kootenay River Rafters. The staff were fantastic and made sure everyone had a great time while also being safe. Our guide Rory was an absolute gem! He was knowledgeable about the area so shared some great info with us while we were out on the water. I’ve been out rafting a few times in different places in Canada and Rory and this group were the best! We will be back and will definitely bring the kids next time! Huge thanks to Rory and the crew for making our experience so memorable!

Great for beginners and families with young kids - Excellent beginner intro to whitewater rafting. Great for kids in terms of both length and size of rapids. Works really well especially if staying up at Panorama because it departs right from the resort - so easy. Our guide Mason was great - friendly with the kids and made it fun.

An absolute must-do experience - Absolutely incredible experience. The guides were hilarious and great people to be around but still very professional. We had a group of 16 most of us never done rafting and it was fun for everybody, not to challenging to the point where you couldn’t enjoy the experience and scenery

An awesome “refreshing” morning rafting on Toby Creek - We had a great morning rafting on Toby Creek. All the crew were awesome, especially Mason who was our fantastic raft guide. We loved the double spin and felt right at home with Mason’s instruction to “Give it some welly!”. It was lots of fun and we could have stayed on the river all day. Thanks guys. The Buchanan Clan

Excellent experience-top rate guides! - We had a great day on Toby Creek. The crew were exceptional! Our raft guide, Tyler, was knowledgeable and so much fun. We were in good hands as this was our first time rafting. Our daughters 19 and 16 couldn’t say enough about how happy they were that we were able to enjoy this experience.

Da Best...and I'm 52 - Seriously, probably the most fun you're going to have and well worth the spend. The staff is absolutely amazing, funny, interactive, and most importantly take the safety of everybody on board very serious. The most fun you're going to have when you have 2 hours at panorama. Great for all ages. Just remember one thing, give these guys a tip when you're done they work their butts off.

Ride with these guys! - Great day! A super first whitewater trip with just enough rapids to give you an adrenaline rush, but any newbie can manage it. Our guide had awful humor to spare, but absolutely was in control of the raft, and we felt we were in good hands. The whole company was well organized and had good equipment. 11/10 recommend to friends. I'm the dork standing up; you can't hear the Chewbacca roar I'm letting out!
