Since 1969, Dvorak Raft and Kayaking Expeditions has offered active adventurers and families, top quality river rafting, kayaking, and fly fishing trips on the Arkansas River. From the Arkansas River's source in the snowy peaks of the Saguache Range in Colorado to the bottom of the Royal Gorge near Canon City, the Arkansas River has something for everyone.

We pride ourselves in having helped pioneer western river rafting in America's Rocky Mountains. Our river trips, whitewater skills camp and guide training program are world reknown and have been featured in ESPN, National Geographic, the Chicago Tribune, and several travel books and television specials.

Arkansas River Rafting Trips
whitewater rafting on the Arkansas River Our most important priority is the quality of the experience you have on one of our river itineraries, be that a first-timer whitewater ramble through Browns Canyon, an exhilarating Class III escapade through The Numbers or a rollicking roll down the Class IV-V rapids of the Royal Gorge.


We truly love leading trips which feel like a private expedition into the wilderness, where you can discover the beauty of the West's landscape and wildlife and cook up a little river magic, the special friendships that form between those who join us on one of our whitewater adventures.
Why travel with us?
  • Safety first - Our safety record is unparalleled (just ask the local hospital emergency room folks!). Dvorak Expeditions was selected as the Colorado Regional Training Center for Rescue III in 2003. 65% of our guests every year have been on a trip with us before or were referred to us by someone who has been on a trip with us.
  • World-class guides: Our guides, many of who come to us with international river experience, are dedicated professionals who go through the most extensive training program we know of among rafting companies.
  • Customized Attention: We take smaller groups down the river for a reason; the experience is better when you can really get to know the people you are with. Bill Dvorak, our company founder is likely to be guiding one of your boats. We promise you an adventure of a lifetime...every time.

We have a wide range of Arkansas River trips and combination adventure packages. Whether you seek a family rafting vacation or the rush of Class V whitewater, there's an Arkansas River trip just for you. Groups will enjoy our riverfront location at our spacious Parkdale Center complete with hot showers, a private beach and wonderful camping areas.
