We love our river guides. Grand Canyon Whitewater is very pleased to have some of the most knowledgeable, entertaining guides running rafts down the Colorado River. We like to give back to our guides in various ways.

One fun tradition among Grand Canyon Whitewater guides is a pre-trip dinner. Grand Canyon Whitewater pays for a crew dinner out in Marble Canyon, Vermillion Cliffs or Cliff Dwellers the night before the guides meet you, the passenger! We also provide lodging for them that evening. It has become somewhat of a tradition and is a fun event! If you’re on one of our full-Canyon trips that depart from Marble Canyon, you might see your guides around the dinner table the night before the launch!

This is just one of the many small reasons that Grand Canyon Whitewater guides return season after season. We’re lucky to have them!
