Joe Kowalski and Joanne Clifford started WildernessTours in 1975
A shared appreciation for whitewater rafting and the limitless beauty of the Ottawa River has allowed them to develop one of the finest adventure resorts in the world.
Our mission since 1975 has been to provide you the finest whitewater rafting experiences in Canada. You have been telling us we have succeeded and more. As we enter our 34th year, we recommit ourselves to providing you the finest 4-season adventure experience anywhere. Daunting, but we are up to the task. Now as in 1975, we look forward to sharing the magic found in whitewater.
YOUR SAFETY IS PARAMOUNT TO ENJOYING THE OTTAWA RIVER IN BEAUTIFUL ONTARIO
As Canada’s top river company and rafting pioneer, WT’s over three decades of experience is your guarantee of a quality and professional experience. WT is a founding member of the Canada River Council, dedicated to safe, professional rafting. You’ll find the best equipment including self-bailing MARAVIA rafts, chosen to supply the famous river movie, RIVER WILD. We use professional river running helmets and comfortable harness type life jackets. Our guides are simply the best in the business. They are First Aid, CPR and SRT (Swiftwater Rescue Technician) qualified. Equally important, WT guides are friendly, informative and live our mission of "SHARING THE MAGIC FOUND IN WHITEWATER" through teamwork and team building with our guests.
Finally, we are committed to the preservation of the last wild section of the Ottawa River, the Rocher-Fendu. To date we have singlehandedly placed almost 4,000 acres into the WT LAND TRUST. We call it "Living with Champlain’s Ghost". Every spare dollar we make adds to the Land Trust. Thank you for your support.
