5.0 starsThe driver of the van was very engaging. He worked very hard at making the trip to the grand canyon and return interesting on its own. The rafting group were amazing. Everything went off like clock work. Will recommend this trip to anyone. Reviewed by:Dan P.,

Grand Canyon Colorado River White Water Rafting One-Day Adventure with Helicopter Ascent (Raft)

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!

Great trip. I have told many people about my experience.

The rafting tour was fantastic. Staff were friendly and helpful. Grand Canyon is the most magnificent place in the world. I would prefer that it had been a paddle raft, for a more 'hands on' experience, rather than motorised, but my kids and I had a great time. Thanks for a wonderful day. I would love to do it again.

It was a great time. We definitely got very soaked.

It was pricey for what we did. A $50.00 rebate for not riding the helicopter is a joke.

I know you cannot control the river but it would be nice to have a few more rapids toward the end of the trip.

The bus broke down going to the river. One of the rafts broke down. The food at lunch could have been better. The guides and trip were excellent.

Everything ran like clockwork with the exception of the bus ride from Peach Springs to the river. A newer bus and a better road would correct this.

We had a great time, but the company should be more direct in explaining the dress code for the trip. The water was 45 degrees, explain to people more than dress warm! I was fine, the man next to me in the cotton sweatshirt was freezing. Also, very nice driver, but drove a bit recklessly.

I would have liked better information pre-tour i.e. there was enough water and food (don't take your own). You will be wet the entire time (appropriate clothing) water shoes that are secure on your feet (for the hiking and climbing).
