Description

Enjoy the thrill of a lifetime with this white water rafting adventure on the mighty Colorado River through one of the most spectacular areas of the world -- the Grand Canyon.

You will be picked up by a luxury van, which will transport you from Vegas to the shores of the Colorado River. Once there, you will meet your friendly guides: the famous Hualapai tribe river runners. After that, your adventure will begin, as you will head to Diamond Creek and then to the powerful Colorado River.

Halfway through your trip you will reach a beach and continue the adventure on foot. You will have the opportunity to explore sparkling waterfalls and hidden coves that have been carved out by millions of years of erosion. Make sure to bring your camera, as you might be able to catch a glimpse of the elusive bighorn sheep and wild mustangs. The Hualapai tribe will provide a lunch buffet for you, which you will enjoy at a comfortable spot deep in the canyon.

After lunch you will tackle rapids in the Colorado River, which range in difficulty from class 3 to class 6. At the end of your 35-mile run, a helicopter (weather permitting) will transport you from the canyon floor to the West Rim, where you will dry off before starting your strip back to Vegas.

Due to the cold water of the Colorado River, you can enjoy this tour only during the summer months.

Note: In case of extreme weather conditions, helicopter transportation from the river may not be possible. Rafters will be transported by bus from South Cove, extending the duration of the rafting and return trip.
