Whitewater rafting is all about adventure, adrenaline, teamwork, spectacular scenery, relaxation, but most importantly it's about building relationships with family and friends. Vessels For Honor Rafting Co. (VFH) is committed to providing good wholesome family fun and adventure to all that participate in our rafting trips. We started and continue to operate as a family-run business.

The name Vessels For Honor comes from the Biblical passage in 2 Timothy 2:21, "Therefore, if any man cleanses himself from these things he will be a vessels for honor, sanctified, useful to the master, prepared for every good work"(NASB). This reflects the owner's passion for Jesus Christ and a commitment to integrity and excellence in all that we do.

Vessels For Honor Rafting is located at Texas Creek, about 1 1/2 hours from Colorado Springs, and provides whitewater rafting adventures on the Arkansas River through Bighorn Sheep Canyon and the Royal Gorge.

VFH is a smaller whitewater rafting company and is ideally suited to accommodate groups of up to 40 people who are interested in "good wholesome family fun and adventure".

All of our guides adhere to the values of integrity, excellence, hospitality and winsomeness. This is one of the factors that set us apart from other whitewater rafting companies.

Our philosophy is to spend as much time on the river as possible for the best overall value. Most of the rafting adventures begin from our riverside location, reducing bus travel time and adding extra miles of river fun. All of the prices listed include the state user fees; what you see is what you pay.

Vessels For Honor Rafting Company looks forward to serving you, your family and friends with a fun and exciting whitewater rafting adventure this summer.
