Surrounded by big mountain views and forested slopes, our scenic nature floats offer guests of all ages and abilities an opportunity to learn about Canmore's storied history, learn about the plants, animals and birds that call the Bow Valley home and the ability to explore an area first settled by the Indigenous people of North America! Proud to be Canmore's first and only locally-owned and family-operated scenic float company, we pride ourselves on hiring folks that are qualified Interpretive Guides, Wilderness First Responders, Swift Water Certified, and above all quality people! We offer guest experiences only river people can offer; with a combined overall experience of over 40 years guiding on the Bow River, no one knows it better than the team at Canmore Raft Tours.

Did a multi day trip with Canmore raft tours and a big group of guys. We were all blown away by the value for the cost. The guides are all great, easy going and super knowledgeable. But the true highlight of the trip was the food! Every meal was so thought out and delicious, I am amazed that food like this could be prepped and cooked at a river camp.
Everyone in the company is so accommodating and they are a true pleasure to deal with.
Thanks Chris, Erin, Gregg & Riley!

Thanks to Ben, Nova and the rest of the team for making our day relaxing and enjoyable. If you're looking to spend about 1 hour just chilling and casually floating down the river whilst being provided information about the area, I highly recommend this tour for you.
Don't worry no white water rapids.
Definitely going to do it again.
