About this tour

Spend a full day on the Arkansas River, where Bighorn Sheep Canyon pairs whitewater adventure with time to enjoy the Colorado scenery. This family-friendly rafting trip leaves room to take a plunge, play games, watch for wildlife, and make the most of a day outdoors with friends or family.

Wetsuits, splash jackets, and river shoes are provided, so you can focus on the water and the canyon around you. The trip is led by Journey Quest, a nonprofit Christ-centered rafting ministry whose guides bring an intentional ministry to the adventure.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 5.00 from 4 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Colorado Springs
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 7.3. Top 43% in Colorado Springs means it ranks in the top 43% of tours in Colorado Springs by this score.
