Hualapai River Runners
The white water rafting will take your breath away. All the beautiful mountains snd the history! We had the best guide “Nick”. We hope to ride the rapids again.
Trip everyone needs on their bucket list
Excitement, and views of the canyon from the river are different from the view from the rim.
An awesome experience for solo travelers and groups alike!
Exceptional Experience
My husband and I could not believe the kindness we received from Dale our guide. Our rapid ride experience through the Grand Canyon went way beyond our expectations. Also, Tom our bus driver was an amazing bus driver. I will never forget as long as I live the vacation I have ever had. I will return the gratitude by letting others know of River Runners. Thank you so much!
One Day Grand Canyon Rafting
You can check off another bucket list adventure! The one day trip was exciting and beautiful.
Unbelievable
I did the one day Grand Canyon trip on Sunday Oct 2, 2022. Sofie one of the two guides on the raft said the water was about a 7 out 10. The rapids were class 3,5 & 7. I was up front and was soaked most of the time. I loved it.
We were on the water 5.5 hrs. half was rapids and the other time was motoring looking at the canyon walls in awe. Around every bend was nature at its finest. When we stopped for Lunch Sophie called the main office on the satellite phone letting them know we were all safe. I really liked that. The bus driver was very nice and stopped multiple times on the 20 mile trip into the canyon explaining about the cactus, all the wild flowers and rocks. I was by myself as my sons flight was canceled due to the hurricane. The guides never made me feel like a fifth wheel.
I would do this trip again in a heartbeat.
Great Trip!
This was an awesome trip! This first hour or so was driving to the bottom of the canyon to the Colorado river…..unbelievable scenery. Then you get on your assigned boat….for the first half of the trip you hit rapids and they are a lot of fun….not that scary. After that you go to the waterfalls which was fun, different, very scenic. The last four hours you have a gentle ride back to the pick up spot….again scenery like most people have never witnessed. They could have spiced up the last 4 hours by allowing alcohol or making frequent stops to swim/recreate or maybe use the motor boats to get you back faster. Also, I read in reviews you might need rain gear due to the cold. We went in August….no rain gear needed….it was very warm at the bottom of the canyon. In fact don’t forget the sun screen. It is a long day….we did not get back to our car until 8pm, so it was a full 12 hr day. We really enjoyed it.

Rafting Toilets in Grand Canyon
One of our most commonly asked questions here at Rivers & Oceans is the inevitable “What is the bathroom situation when rafting the Grand Canyon?”. While we wish it was just as simple as plumbing pipes and flushable toilets, we’re here to talk about The Groover, which is the next best thing.
