View on Google MapsGillian! She was a fantastic guide. We had laughs, fun and a lot of great stories. It is a small family owed company and every decision is very thoughtful and intentional. Thank you
First of all outstanding staff in accommodating my needs and explaining the different trips to match my expectations. The guide, Mark, was so awesome in preparing us for the trip and how to handle any situation. Once on the river he guided us perfectly through a lot of big water so professionally. Everyone in the raft worked so well together under his leadership and instructions. He also was a well informed person of the history of the river and sites we passed olong the way. I gave been whiterwater rafting for over 20 years and this was one of my best experiences. Can’t wait till next year. Will definitely use Journey Wiest exclusively for my whitewater rafting on the Arkansas River.
We loved our trip! We have been rafting for several years and this is the first time with this company and they were terrific! Mark, our guide, did tell a couple corny jokes (dead dog tree, no bark) but we managed to live through it!

Great experience, friendly, professional and helpful staff who are very safety conscious and determined to provide a an awesome time.
Mark and Chris were wonderful guides. They told stories, jokes, and what we saw as we moved down the river. They made sure to help us feel comfortable and encouraged us all along the way. The whole group had a great day.
Our trip was Epic! Luke was a terrific guide and very knowledgeable about the History of the Royal Gorge and how to navigate the rapids. I was cold during the morning half of trip and at lunch Luke called in for a dry jacket and a fleece to add warmth. I had no idea that Journey Quest was part of a Christian Wilderness Ministry when I booked, but there really isn’t any religious components to the trip except for a quick safety prayer at the beginning of the trip- which I think was an added bonus. Luke kept us safe- and it was an beautiful adventure!
Outstanding day rafting trip through the gorge with 3 class 5 and multiple class 4 rapids. Mark and his team are amazing. Best place to raft the Arkansas River. This was our third family trip and it only gets better each time.
The entire experience was amazing from a quick and easy check in, to equipment fitting, safety talk, to the actual rafting. We did the half day kayaking trip with Chris and then the next day we did the full day Royal Gorge rafting trip with Emmaline. Both are phenomenal guides and just great people to get to know and hang out with as well. After, we were able to see and purchase about 50 pictures of us for each day, which was really cool. I would highly recommend Journey Quest. I chose them over the larger commercial rafting companies because they allow less people in the rafts and are definitely more personalized. The next time we will be in the area (hopefully next year) I will be booking another trip with them.
The entire trip was fantastic, but rafting through the gorge was breathtaking! Mark (owner and our guide) was a highly skilled, informative and wonderful host!
We absolutely loved our full day on the River with Journey Quest!! My first rafting experience, my husbands 3rd. Mark, the owner and our guide was exceptional! Professional, personable, knowledgeable and could be somewhat funny at times. We also met his wife Sara and the whole staff. All were very kind and helpful. We started the day with a group prayer on the boat and from there it was nothing but an awesome experience, both challenging and fun!! The Royal Gorge was absolutely stunning and full of history! My husband and I are retired from the Navy, we’ve been around the world and done a lot! I can honestly say this was one of the BEST adventures we’ve ever had! We highly recommend Journey Quest & already discussing what our next adventure with them will be! Thank you Mark, Sara & the whole team! P.S. the pictures that were taken along the River are outstanding! That was a nice surprise to have this rememberable moment captured so well! God bless you and may He continue to bless Journey Quest.
