The trip of a lifetime!

Rated 5 out of 5
September 5, 2022

Breath taking views. Josh was attentive to everyone, entertaining and knowledgeable. I felt safe both on and off the river, including during some of the more steep hikes. JP the other guide in the lead boat was excellent too as was Luke the newest member to the crew. They were all hard working and took care of everything, plus more. They had some nice bonus surprises at the end of our 7 day trip.

Grand Canyon Rafting and Helicopter Trips

May 18, 2022

While either a Grand Canyon rafting trip or a helicopter ride over Grand Canyon would be a trip of a lifetime for many people, it is possible to do both on the same trip. Numerous Grand Canyon Rafting trips in Arizona either start or end with a 5 to 7 minute helicopter ride in or out of the canyon. Below we walk through the different trip options. These rafting trips run from mid-March through October.
