Rock Town River Outfitters was established in 2017 by owner and founder Samuel Ellis. What started as a few kayaks on the Arkansas River grew into a multi-location operation in different parts of Little Rock.
Our goal is to get people outside and safely enjoy all of the activities central Arkansas has to offer. We offer kayak and bicycle rentals as well as kayak and bicycle tours for those wanting to experience Little Rock in a unique way.
We look forward to guiding you on your next adventure!

Grizzly Bear
Security/(Dog)Paddling Instructor
Grizzly Bear joined the RTRO team in 2016. He is an expert SUP boarder and takes his security duties seriously by performing regular perimeter checks while at the marina. Most days, you can find Grizz riding on the front of Samuel’s boat, rounding up stray kayaks, or lounging on the dock. He is an energetic Leo with a heart of gold, a love for smelly socks, and will gladly accept generous tips in the form of Milk-Bones.
