Kokopelli Rafting Adventures has been guiding trips on the Rio Grande in Northern New Mexico since 1983 and is proud to be a long standing New Mexican outfitter. Based in Taos and part of the Rivertrippers family, we offer professionally guided rafting experiences for both locals and visitors who want to experience this river the right way.

Our half day trips run through the Rio Grande Racecourse, featuring exciting whitewater, scenic canyon walls, and classic Southwest river views. For those looking to spend more time on the water, our full day trips add additional river miles and include a riverside lunch, creating a relaxed and immersive day in the canyon.

Our guides are local, highly trained, and deeply knowledgeable about the Rio Grande and the surrounding landscape. Many have been part of our team for years, continuing a tradition of safety, professionalism, and authentic river culture that has defined Kokopelli for decades.

Whether you are visiting Taos or have lived here your whole life, we are proud to serve our community and share one of New Mexico’s most iconic river experiences with generations of guests.
