Kayaking is a family-friendly activity and a great way to get everyone in the water. The inflatable kayak, or what we call a “Duckie” is a great option for guests who want to change up their rafting game.  The duckie tours take place on mellow sections of river, generally in Class II whitewater, and can be a great way to up your adventure level by manning your own water vessel while the little ones float along in a guided raft – truly fun for everyone in the family.

If you are in Colorado and are searching for “kayaking near me” options, look no further! KODI Rafting offers the best adventure trips for an exciting day outdoors that will boost your energy and get your adrenaline going!
