“The helicopter tour blew my mind. Seeing the Royal Gorge from 2,500 feet up is something I'll never forget. The pilot was fantastic: pointed out everything and made us feel completely safe.”
Derek M.
Helicopter Tour
“We did the Royal Gorge raft trip for our anniversary and it was the highlight of our entire Colorado vacation. The rapids were intense but the guides made it feel safe and fun. 10/10 would do again!”
Amanda & Chris
Royal Gorge Rafting
“Sky Trek was so fun for the whole family! My 8-year-old conquered every obstacle and my teenager actually put her phone away for two hours. That alone is worth 5 stars.”
Jessica P.
Sky Trek
“Did the 11-line extreme zipline course and hit 60 mph on the final line. Absolutely insane. The crew was professional and hyped us up the whole time. Best adrenaline rush of my life.”
Brandon W.
Ziplining - Extreme
“Stayed in the glamping yurts right on the river: woke up to the sound of rapids every morning. Did Bighorn Canyon rafting with our kids (ages 7 and 10) and they LOVED it. Already booked again for next summer.”
The Martinez Family
Glamping + Rafting
“Whitewater Bar & Grill is the real deal. Brisket was incredible, live music on the patio, sand volleyball. We ended up staying way longer than planned. Best restaurant in Cañon City, hands down.”
Tyler K.
Whitewater Bar & Grill
“My husband proposed during the helicopter tour and the pilot helped coordinate the whole thing. I said yes at 2,500 feet above the gorge! The most magical moment of our lives. Thank you, Royal Gorge Heli!”
Rachel & Mike
Helicopter Tour
“I've rafted all over the country and the Royal Gorge section is elite. 15 rapids in 6 miles with 1,000-foot walls on each side: nothing else compares. Guides were top-notch professionals.”
Steve D.
Royal Gorge Rafting
“The luxury cabins exceeded every expectation. Hot tub under the stars, fire pit, gorgeous mountain views. After a full day of ziplining and rafting, coming back to that cabin was heaven.”
Lauren H.
Luxury Cabins
“Brought my corporate team of 20 for a group outing. They handled everything: rafting in the morning, BBQ lunch at Whitewater, ziplining after. Best team building event we've ever done.”
Carlos G.
Group Event
“Rooftop Social has the best sunset views in Colorado. Craft cocktails, mountain backdrop, great vibes. We went every single evening of our trip. The staff remembered our names by night two!”
Nikki S.
Rooftop Social
“We did it all in one weekend: rafting, Sky Trek, helicopter tour, glamping, and dinner at Whitewater. This place is unreal. It's like a Colorado adventure resort without the resort prices.”
