Whitewater Rafting

Whether you’re looking for a bucket-list experience or a full summer of adventure sports, RIVERSPORT delivers! Now’s your chance to experience the same rapids that will be the featured venue for Olympic canoe slalom events during the LA28 Games – right here in OKC.

RIVERSPORT Rapids is one of the world’s top whitewater rafting and kayaking centers and offers Class II-IV whitewater rafting in the heart of Oklahoma City. Raft with our experienced guides, then experience the rapids in a whole new way with family-style tubing. Ready to kick it up a notch? Learn to whitewater kayak down the rapids.

Rafting, tubing and whitewater kayaking (for experienced paddlers) are included in your RIVERSPORT or RIVERSPORT+ pass. Raft trips are scheduled throughout the day. You can reserve your raft trip time when you purchase a pass online, or our guest services staff will book you into a raft trip when you purchase a pass on site.

Meet Your Raft Guide

Your adventure starts when you meet your raft guide for the “trip talk.” You’ll learn what to expect on the water and how to paddle your raft, plus safety information to ensure you have a great experience. Your guide will help you properly fit your helmet and PFD, then it’s off to the raft for your adventure. A conveyor belt will take you to the top of the rapids where your guide will take you on an exciting, authentic whitewater rafting experience!
