DIY options

Grab these neatly packed items from the Lazy Day Shop and go wherever you want!

DIYs are back!

We’re thrilled to again offer DIY options for those who wish to travel and explore the waterways of our incredible part of the world.

All DIYs are neatly rolled and packed and will fit into standard-sized trunks.

All DIYs include:

  • PFDs
  • Safety kit (rafts and kayaks only)
  • Paddle(s)
Attention

PLEASE READ

DIYs are quite different from our regular full-service options. To avoid disappointment, please note the following important points:

Location

Do-It-Yourself options are picked up from (and returned to) our Downtown Lazy Day Shop. They are not available at West Baker Park.

No Shuttle Access

Unfortunately, DIY rentals are not permitted on the shuttle bus, as they’re too large and bulky to transport that way.

We appreciate your understanding and can’t wait to see you out on the river!

The original Lazy Day experience! Grab your family and friends and escape to glorious nature in our rugged and comfortable rafts.

From CA$98

Lazy Day  now carries two different types of kayaks:

 

Memba Pro Kayaks

The Aqua Marine Mamba Professional inflatable kayak is available in solo and dual options, offering smooth, stable, and effortless paddling for mid-distance recreational adventures such as those offered on the Bow River.

Ultra-durable and fit for multiple types of water exploring, these kayaks are perfect for travelers who enjoy mid-distance recreational adventures, and are constructed with an innovative, custom-made rigid drop-stitched DWF floor and inflatable air chamber, alongside extra-strong polyester for optimum strength, stability, and UV protection.

Benefits:

  • Extended water splash guard bow with cargo bungee cord design
  • Durable high-back seat(s) with comfortable spongy cushion and multiple storage pockets
  • Multiple heavy-duty strap buckles for easy seat positioning
  • Drop-stitch double-wall fabric made floor with a superfast drain system

 

MRS Packrafts

We’re excited to introduce our new 2-person packraft, the MRS Nomad S1, to our fleet—a lightweight, durable packraft designed for adventure and comfort. This sleek 2-person raft is perfect for mellow river floats, offering both performance and comfort.

Perfect for laid-back river floats or sneaky escapes into Packraftthe wild, the Nomad S1 blends durability, comfort, and just the right splash of fun. It’s great for solo paddlers who love extra space—or two light travelers ready for a cozy cruise down the Bow.

Is it a kayak? Is it a raft? Who knows!  The fleet of new BowYaks has arrived, and we can’t wait to try them ourselves!

Discover Calgary’s beauty like never before! Lazy Day Raft Rentals and Toonie Tours have teamed up to bring you the ultimate Bike & Raft Tour—combining city sights, fresh air, and effortless adventure into one seamless, unforgettable day.

Rent it. Float it. Own it! The new Packrafts are one of our hottest rental items, and are increasingly difficult to keep in stock!

If you’re visiting from out of town (or don’t have your own cooler), rent one of our sturdy coolers to keep your drinks and snacks ice cold!
