Best Rafting Value in Colorado -
More Rapids for Your Money!
The Arkansas River has the best whitewater rafting in Colorado and Acquired Tastes offers you the best rafting value on the Arkansas River! Acquired Tastes rafts all four major sections of the Arkansas River, including Brown's Canyon, Numbers & Narrows, Royal Gorge, and Bighorn Sheep Canyon.
Brown's Canyon is our most popular whitewater rafting adventure. Brown's Canyon is so exciting that many of our customers return to raft it with us year after year. However, it is suitable for beginning rafters because it starts with easy whitewater, giving beginners enough experience in the first part of the trip so they can enjoy the eight big rapids in Brown's Canyon. We offer two great Brown's Canyon whitewater rafting trips - our Brown's Canyon Bonus Half-Day Rafting Trip and our Brown's Canyon One-Day Rafting Trip.
On our Brown's Canyon Bonus Half-Day Trip, we do two more rapids than other rafting companies on the Arkansas River. Other rafting companies only do six of the major rapids in Brown's Canyon on their half-day trips. They miss the last two big rapids, Seidel's Suckhole and Twin Falls, because they use the public takeout at Hecla Junction. We share a private takeout with one other rafting company so we raft all eight of the major rapids in Brown's Canyon.
On our Brown's Canyon One-Day Trip, we offer you a great one-day rafting trip at a very economical price. We have a put-in at our office in Johnson Village, two miles south of Buena Vista, Colorado. We give you a better price on a great one-day rafting trip since we do not have to shuttle our customers to a public put-in.
On our multi-day rafting adventures, we give you the most whitewater possible in a two- or three-day rafting trip. On our deluxe overnighters, we camp on private land in a beautiful, secluded spot adjoining our takeout for our Brown's Canyon trips. We offer you a better camping experience for less money than companies that carry their camping gear on their rafts and camp on public land in Brown's Canyon. Rather than taking a one-day trip and stretching it into two days by camping in Brown's Canyon, we raft all of Brown's Canyon on the first day of your trip and give you a choice of three other great sections of whitewater for your second and third days of rafting.
Acquired Tastes has provided safe, fun, exciting whitewater adventures on the Arkansas River under the same ownership since 1986. Most rafting companies have changed ownership at least once and some have changed ownership multiple times. When you choose Acquired Tastes for your rafting adventure, you are choosing an experienced company with one of the best safety records on the river.
Acquired Tastes is the Best Rafting Value in Colorado because we offer you high quality whitewater rafting adventures at very reasonable prices. All of our boats are state-of-the-art self-bailing rafts with foot cones glued to the floor for added safety and security. Our guide training far exceeds the standards set by the State of Colorado. Our customers not only come back to raft with us year after year but they also recommend us to their friends, relatives, and co-workers.
Our friendly, well-trained guides and staff take pride in making each trip a quality experience. You get a better rafting trip for less money when you choose Acquired Tastes for your Colorado rafting adventure!
