Great Trip, Fun Guides! - I've never been rafting but my daughter had it on her bucket list of things she wanted to try. I was concerned about safety but those concerns were unwarranted. The guides at Monumental Expeditions were professional and placed a priority on safety. Not only did I feel safe but the guides made the experience educational and fun! We plan on returning next Summer.

Best raft trip on the Arkansas! - I may have reviewed this one before but it is so great, I felt the need to review it again. This is a wonderful trip. Small company that does a wonderful job of expediting the management of the raft trip and getting you through the canyon safely. Adam is simply the best. When you are going through the canyon and the other rafting companies are floundering all around you, you will be glad you went with Monumental Expeditions!

Small Rafting Company with more years of experience than most big rafting companies - With so many rafting companies to choose from we chose Monumental because we new the guide (also the owner), has 25 years of rafting experience. Can’t imagine anyone else knows the river as well as he does. Plus he’s knowledgeable and fun! With the water running high you want to be safe so call and ask for Adam. You won’t be disappointed! We had a blast and felt very safe!

The BEST whitewater guides! - Adam and Mike were awesome! I’m so glad we booked our adventure with them - the care we received felt so personal, a one on one type of thing yet the skill level of our guide, Mike, was totally evident - you were great Mike. Thank you for an amazing trip!

Beautiful and Exciting!! - Our family thoroughly enjoyed the float. It was perfect for our two kids, ages 8 and 10, and exciting enough for us parents as well. The scenery was beautiful and getting to jump off the little cliff added some extra fun! The guide was super cool and his knowledge of the surrounding area and nature made the trip more interesting. I definitely recommend rafting with these guys if you're looking for someone to get you onto the water!!

Whitewater trip of a lifetime! - My wife and I took a camping trip out west in Sept of 2023. We were hoping to do some nice whitewater rafting while out west. My wife found Monumental Expeditions on line. We booked a trip with Adam, guide and owner of the company. He and his wife are owners of the company together. They were both very friendly and easy to work with. We had an amazing ride down the Arkansas river with Adam. He was very knowledgeable and in control the whole trip. I would definitely do this trip again and would highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for an amazing whitewater trip with beautiful scenery on both sides.
