What you can expect

Embark on a full-day adventure on the Rio Grande River. Take in the scenic views as you float through the epic canyons of the Rio Grande on a fully guided and equipped trip. Learn or work on your boating skills as you navigate the river's class I rapids.

Meet your guide at the Big Bend Boating & Hiking Company office and drive down to the river. Choose between a raft, canoe, or kayak, depending on the water levels. Rafts are perfect for first-timers, while canoes and kayaks are great for those who want to paddle.

At lower water levels, paddle a canoe or kayak. Canoes are 2-seaters with the option to ride smaller kids in the middle. The kayaks are single or tandem sit-in or sit-on-top and are lots of fun.

Enjoy the scenic views as you float down the river. Take some fun pictures with your friends and family as you make your way through the epic canyons of the Rio Grande.
