Lots of fun!

This was a great experience! Highly recommend. The guys were very experienced. We even though it was excited and scary, it also was very safe.

Definitely put Rafting...

Definitely put Rafting Montreal on your bucket list if you're visiting Montreal. The Adventurous Rafting experience was incredibly fun. Even as a non-swimmer, I felt incredibly safe. The team and guide go through a whole safety training before you get onto the rapids. Shout out to Marianne who served as our amazing guide?

Operator response

We're happy to hear that you felt safe while having fun on the water with us! We'll definitely let Marianne know, she'll be thrilled to hear your review!

Taking a leap with Rafting Montreal

My sons and I went rafting with Rafting Montreal. First, we were helped by Genevieve. She was so kind. She kept in contact with us, trying to help us complete the waivers. Even when we arrived, she was so helpful. Our guide was Nicholas. He was phenomenal!! We had such a great time. He kept our energy up and motivated us. Nicholas made rafting fun while keeping us safe. The best part was when our entire raft jumped into the Big John Rapid! My sons and I had a great time and can't wait to go rafting again.

Operator response

We're pleased to hear that from the moment you arrived to your time on the water, everything was enjoyable! We'll definitely share your kind words with our team, they'll be thrilled to hear about your experience. Thank you for joining us, and we hope to see you again soon!

Bucket list

Must try. Would try to do again next year . Have been living at the same street as rafting since 30 years never dared to do it. This year I decided to do it before I get too old. It was really a thrilling experience. The guides are very professional and safety minded. Don’t leave nothing to chance.

Operator response

We are so happy that you finally decided to come rafting with us! It is a pleasure and we're looking forward to greeting you again next summer!

Exciting Adventure, with a side of rain

This trip was a lot of fun. I would say this was an easy rafting excursion comparably. The approach was in and out of the rapids rather than one rapid after the other. I found this approach a great way to for someone who hasn’t tried it before. Now that I know what to expect, I’m excited to go again. The lead in our boat was a lot of fun, silly and encouraged safety and adventure. Even though we were pummeled with rain most of the trip, it was a blast. Thank you all for your hospitality!

Operator response

We're so happy to hear about your experience with us Jessie! Rain or shine, we try to make it the outmost special time for everyone. We can't wait to see you on the water again :)

Rafting on the rapids of Lachine

Great experience with my 15 year old son. It's a different way of looking at the river and the city. Our guide Fred gave us confidence and gave us a brief account of the river, its islands and the mountains around it. We loved it!
