I organized a rafting trip and camping retreat for a corporate group of 30 people and was blown away by the organization, knowledge of the guides, team building activities, and professionalism of the group! The entire adventure exceeded my expectations and my group absolutely loved the experience. The memories created on our trip are priceless. Thank you Garth (and your... More

Thanks Garth for a great day on the Grand River! Thanks Dale for hanging out with us when you could have been enjoying the day on your own. You really made us comfortable in the Kayaks and showed us some great spots to stop and enjoy what the river has to offer. Megan passed out on the way home and... More

My husband and I took a 1 hour kayaking lesson with Garth and then went on a 14 k paddle on our own. Garth was a great source of information on the area and kayaking. He showed us the correct way to paddle (something other out fitters had not) and what to look for in purchasing a kayak in the... More

This is the second time I've taken a group of International English students to travel the Grand with Garth and his team. What a spectacular time we had! The guides with GRR make sure that the needs of their clients come first. We paddled, we played, and we were educated. The knowledgeable staff know exactly what each group needs, from... More

Garth is the consummate host- meticulous in taking proper care of his guests and very patient and accomodatiing. Dale, our very pleasant guide, shared substantial knowledge about the flora... More

Kayaking is my favourite, but we did a family group trip with some members who are a little uncomfortable on the water. So we... More

With Garth at the helm and a full moon, we couldn't have pick a better choice to enjoy our summer evening by rafting down mild rapids and meandering through the river in twilight and cozy darkness. The constellation gazing, fresh spring water tasting (ahhhhhh), night sounds and the professional, knowledgeable and personable guide made this a thoroughly positive escape! More

What a perfect day! Our group consisted of 3 kids (ages 7, 7, and 9), and 3 adults. Barry was our guide - full of knowledge and a terrific rafting companion. The kids loved body surfing, and are asking if we can do it again! More
