Description
Our guides get you on board our safe motorized pontoon boats, which are especially designed for smooth water rides - no roaring rapids! This is all about gently meandering down the Colorado River inside the gorgeous Black Canyon as you take in both nature and man's creations.
Exciting surprises are around every corner on this 12-mile smooth river run. Discover delicate plants flourishing alongside the mighty Colorado, while birds soar above you. The area also serves as a playground for Big Horn Sheep, who often defy gravity as they scramble up and down the steep cliffs!
Cruise to the river's edge to take a closer look at the rugged canyon walls dotted with caves, hot water springs and waterfalls.
Halfway through your calm river ride, we'll stop for lunch on one of the Colorado's sandy beaches (meal included). Watch the mighty river flow, gaze up at the jagged, yet beautiful, canyon walls or play in the water.
The gentle waters end at Willow Beach, where our sport utility vehicle will be waiting to take you to the Hoover Dam! This is your chance to explore the dam, learn how it operates and study exhibits and photos of the dam's past and present. There's also time to peek over the edge and take pictures from the top of this American masterpiece.
With smaller groups (7 maximum), you are ensured maximum guide interaction on this exciting tour!
Please indicate your choice of Turkey or Veggie sandwich in the "Meal Requests" field on our booking page.
Price does not include a $5.00 per person fuel surcharge, payable at the time of tour check-in.

I love geology so it was a fascinating tour for me. The tour guide had great knowledge of the history of the rocks along the river. The Rainbow Canyon was beautiful and I have been to the Hoover Dam before but never inside.

We had a great time on this tour. The river ride was interesting with a great guide. We then had a driver to take us to the Hoover Dam via some fantastic scenery. The dam itself was stunning with a trip to the power room. Our guide then took us back to the hotel via Boulder City. A great day all round. We enjoyed it more than last years trip to the Grand Canyon. A nice break from Vegas too!

Rafting trip was fantastic! But suv trip could have been better. The driver seemed to be unconcerned about his passengers.
