$29 Per Person

A fun-filled and unforgettable introduction to the Grand River Valley. Your guide will introduce you to the Grand River Valley, a real wilderness experience close to home. You can drink from springs, shoot over the famous “Bloop”, visit a gypsum mine circa 1850, learn the native history, pass Great Blue Herons and Painted Turtles, hike to a lookout surveying the valley, experience the coldness of Whiteman’s Creek, watch Osprey circling overhead, swim, and see the remains of an abandoned damn. Our rafts are a great way for groups to spend a day together.

Even though the Grand River is only 3 feet deep on the average, this is a perfect trip for those not comfortable in a canoe or kayak. Our 14 ft rafts are totally stable and require no skills to paddle. These rafts are excellent for family day adventures.

All trips include a trained guide. Late afternoon and evening trips available. $29 a person includes all gear, pfd's, paddle, 3 hour raft tour, and shuttle service from parking to launch point.

There is an additional $5/person Brant Park usage fee.

Raft capacity of 8 adults, or 6 adults and 4 children, there is a 4 person minimum

HOW IT WORKS!
Park your vehicle at the Grand Experience boat landing at the Brant Conservation Area, near Brantford. We pick you up at 11 am and take you upstream to Paris, where you begin your paddle at 11:30am. The raft trip takes about 4 hrs to go downstream back to your vehicle. When you get back you can just hop into your vehicle and go home… or enjoy an evening meal and camp overnight with us.
