Group white water rafting vacations in Colorado & Utah

Specialty Group White Water Rafting Trips in Colorado and Utah

At River Runners and Adrift Adventures our main objective is to make every rafting trip safe and memorable, but we also understand that sometimes you want something that caters specifically to the needs of your group. This is why we have created a range of specialty group rafting trips that go above and beyond our regular trip offerings. These programs include Boy Scout White Water Merit Badge Clinics, rafting for college credit, corporate retreats, exclusive fundraisers, family reunions and bachelor and bachelorette parties. If you have a specialty group rafting trip idea that does not fit into one of these categories, just let us know and we’ll do our best to make it happen.

River Runners – The White Water Professionals Since 1972

Join us for our 40th year rafting on the Arkansas River. Choose from our Canon City or Buena Vista, Colorado locations. The River Runners Riverside Rafting Resort is a great place to host a weekend event and the River Runners Royal Gorge Rafting Center is just one hour from Colorado Springs. Both locations are perfect for large groups and are on or near the Arkansas River.

One-day Arkansas River Rafting Trips

River Runners offers family, intermediate and advanced level Arkansas River trips daily from May 1 through Labor Day. Choose from half day or full day trips on The Numbers (class IV-V), Browns Canyon (class III-IV), Bighorn Sheep Canyon (class III-IV) and the Royal Gorge (class IV-V). If you are timid or have young children then get your feet wet with a one-hour scenic Family Float (class II). Don’t forget to ask about our group discounts, exclusive rafting trips and thrill rafts.
