About Us

"ESCAPE TO ADVENTURE"

Nestled in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains of Alberta, Mukwah Tours has been providing exciting adventures through the true Canadian Wilderness since 1982. 

Mukwah represents a strong belief in providing the highest standard of safety and comfort to our clients. Our guides have been fully trained in First Aid and CPR, as well as Swiftwater Rescue. Most importantly, our guides are familiar with the Upper Red Deer, its many moods and its many challenges.

The professional guiding staff bring with them years of experience. They are knowledgeable and willing to share their rafting experiences with you. An easily understood paddling and safety session before each trip is given by your qualified guide. They will teach you everything you need to know.

All our equipment is designed with your safety in mind, from high buoyancy life jackets to adjustable helmets. We also provide wet suits and booties to keep your muscles warm. Any way you want it, Mukwah has you covered.

Meet one of our summer 2024 guides, Jackson! Jacko is cool, calm, collected and crazy about whitewater 🌊 When he’s not casually defying death on the rapids, he’s shredding the slopes as a snowboard instructor and studying adventure tourism 🏂🏕️ He also enjoys climbing, backpacking but most of all, cooking up Michelin star meals in the basecamp kitchen 🧀 Head down to Mukwah this summer and say hello to Jackson!

Meet our Trip Leader, Captain Mitch, the mastermind behind all of our adventures! Mitch took over Mukwah in 2022 after a decade of Sea Kayaking around Vancouver Island and never looked back.

I would strongly recommend Mukwah Rafting to anyone looking for a lot of fun, excitement and laughs from a crew that really cares about your safety. Everyone at Mukwah was fantastic and provided a terrific customer experience. Special shoutout to Jocelyn who was incredible - funny, knowledgeable, caring, professional and an all-around great person. Looking forward to coming back in June 2022 to do it again but this time with the spring runoff!

Friendly and professional. No access to Internet (both an advantage and disadvantage depending on your circumstances).

A well run operation with staff that were engaged. We had 49 year olds to 10 year olds and everyone enjoyed the fun and excitement.

Whitewater rafting was the highlight of our family vacation. The guides were a perfect balance of knowledge, professionalism, humour, and fun. The value for the money spent is great as well. Highly recommend this experience for anyone, even for families with young children, as our 8 year old even participated with us.
