This was so enjoyable…. The first half of the trip was rapids. We were in a motorized boat so all we had to do was hang on. We stopped for lunch which they provided then the second half was a very relaxing enjoyable ride through the canyons on the Colorado River. AMAZING

Fantastic day spent on the Colorado River with Kyle as our guide. Although the bus getting to the river was very bumpy, Tom our bus driver was very informative, with many stops to look at various plants and explanations of the terrain. The rapids included a class 7 which was awesome. Tour was pricey buy worth it.

They drove me from Las Vegas and back around 2.5 hours each way. Everyone involved was great my van driver from Vegas to the lodge and I conversed entire way, the bus driver down to the river shared stories let us get off to take pictures of the canyon. The Hualapai boat captains were thoroughly knowledgeable and professional. The was more physical than my "mature" body expected hopping up and down off the motorized rafts and crawling up the canyon to visit a spring. But well worth time and money adventure.

This was an amazing trip, so glad we did this! We went 5/31 and it was cold, so dress accordingly. Between the 40 degree water and the wind, it can be cold. Be prepared for a long day from the long bus ride into the canyon and the long ride out, but again worth the experience! Kyle, our guide through the canyon, give great perspective on the history and beauty of a wonderful landmark. Memories my family and I will cherish for a lifetime.

We had a great trip! Dale was safe, knowledgeable and fun guide. The views were spectacular, the rapids were exhilarating! Be prepared to get wet and for the 45 degree water.

I recommend packing lots of sunscreen, hand sanitizer and a change of clothes for the bus ride back.

Plan on the trip taking all day! It was the best day of our vacation.

Booked with Viator believing they were an honest company. Had an amazing river trip and loved having the Hualapai tribe take us down the river. However, Viator doubled the price and when questioned and asked for their "meet the price" refund, they began giving every excuse in the book, even sending me an empty website with no trips whatsoever on it. I will never book with them again!!! Do your homework when you find a tour and avoid Viator!!!

Riding the rapids was so exciting. Our raft guide made sure we were safe while having maximum fun! The water is quite bracing at first but feels nice an a warm day. Then after lunch it is a calm, slow ride to the pick up area. Bus driver was wonderful too! Just remember there are no restrooms while on the River. The ride to and from the river is very bumpy because of dirt roads. If you get motion sickness take precautions.

Loved every minute, our guide Trent was terrific, knowledgeable, adventurous, expert and funny and made our trip more than we could have imagined. Trent made the rapid's exciting, fun and told us stories of interesting parts of the canyon as we passed. We felt completely safe and loved the cooling off of the water even though we were completely soaked. The waterfall was a highlight too. We would highly recommend this all day tour. The 2nd half floating down stream after lunch could be a bit shorter if there was another place to disembark.
