On day two, after a hearty cowboy breakfast, you will board a helicopter for the thrilling 10 minute ride into the canyon where your river guides and motorized rafts are waiting for you. Spend the next two days rafting exciting class II and II rapids and hiking beautiful side canyons as well as spending a night under the stars without any city lights to cloud the view.

On day three after a few more rapids and floating along on some scenic flat water sections you'll transfer to a jet boat and get whisked away to Lake Mead where an air-conditioned bus is waiting to take you back to Las Vegas.

For $1200 per person you will receive all of this plus a free t-shirt, duffel bag, souvenir water bottle, and river guidebook. And as an additional special, in honor of "National Park Week" (April 21-29) the National Park Service is waiving all entrance fees!

Western Section Grand Canyon Rafting

There is a 3-4 day motorized rafting trip in the Western section of the Grand Canyon. In addition, there are a few oar trips for this section; however, because there are only seven oar trips that launch per season in this section, which means they are often booked over a year in advance. Most trips in the Western section include a night at the Bar-ten Ranch a working family dude ranch in the remote Arizona strip area of Arizona, near the rim of the canyon. This section has frisky, wet rapids and the scenery is gorgeous, however, it is sometimes called the “Introductory section” of the canyon, as the more famous rapids are upstream, as well as longer hikes up spectacular side canyons. All these trips conveniently begin and end in Las Vegas and include a helicopter ride into the canyon. Prices range from $967 -$1459 for the motorized trips and there are several trips discounted this season! This video is a nice overview of the trip done by a person who did the trip.
