Description
Let us pick you up at Downtown Las Vegas & Strip hotels onboard our air-conditioned motor coach or minibus. Leave Las Vegas behind and head south towards the Grand Canyon!
We'll cross over the Hoover Dam before continuing on to Kingman, Arizona. After driving down historic Route 66, we'll check in with our river raft guides.
Then, hop onboard the tribal bus for a scenic, though bumpy, 17-mile drive down to the river on the only road into the Grand Canyon. At the river, put on your life jacket, put your camera in the watertight camera box & listen to the safety instructions.
Then, get ready as we hop onboard an inflatable, motor-powered raft & hit our first rapids just seconds from pushing off! You will get wet! Raft 40 miles through Class 3 & 4 (out of 6) rapids for about 5.5 hours!
When your raft trip ends, you'll still be in the depths of the Grand Canyon. Our jet helicopter picks you up near the river. Then, climbs among spectacular 4,000-foot cliffs from the river to the tribe's modern airport at the Grand Canyon West Rim (7 minutes approximately).
From the air terminal, return on a relaxing, comfortable journey (2.5 hours approximately) to Las Vegas!
Children must be at least 8 years old to go on this adventure!
Please note: The helicopter ascent is weather permitting

This is amazing. I will remember it for rest of my life. Little gorge walk in the midst of it. Great guides. Amazing lunch location. Great value. Road trip was enjoyable. We got to stop off at little places and see Joshua tree national forest. Excellent!

After having to postpone our first trip, we were very glad to return and complete it. Even the trip down to the river in the bus was fun. Amazing views and well organised. Our rafting experience was full of excitement. Our rafting guide made it even more enjoyable by showing us all the sights and telling us stories of the local tribes. Unforgettable! A truly amazing experience. Thank you.

Everything was great except for the wait to helicopter out. This was awful! We were one of the first rafts to finish and arrive at the top of the cliff and our group was one of the last out by helicopter. There was no sense of order, it was hot, and there was no water at all. We were stranded for over an hour and a half! After waiting over an hour others who weren't even from our rafting trip were taken before our group. I was standing nearby when one guy came up to the staff member and bargained to go next. He should be ashamed. They had just gotten off a party boat and then off in the helicopter they went. This completely ruined the experience! There was no reason to not have water for us, we would have gladly purchased water had it been available. Shame on the helicopter company!

Our guide was brilliant. He was courteous, kind, informative, and interesting. Thanks so much. He took care of my girl Belle so carefully and considerately. We always felt safe! The rafting experience was everything I had hoped for and more. The icy water splashing on me had me shrieking with delight. So much fun. Oh and the water falls! Magnificent. Our guide's stories were wonderful. The the helicopter trip up - wow. The whole day was brilliant. So worth the money spent. And we rode in a Hummer! Thanks again, it was terrific. I recommend it to everyone who has been dreaming of the canyon. This is the way to experience the enormity, beauty and vastness of our wonderful world.

Loved it. The entire trip was great. Our guide on the river made the trip exciting, and was very knowable about the history and pointing out interesting rock formations. Would definitely do it again. Thanks.
