“It’s hard to pick just one highlight. For my 10-year old, Jillian, the highlight was Lava Falls. It was amazing, scary, and really, really fun. My 16-year old, Justine, loved the surroundings. Just being in someplace as beautiful as Grand Canyon was nothing short of amazing. My little guy, Jason, liked every single thing he did — the rapids, the camps, and even Oscar/the groover!

We were a party of 11, all members of the same family, and I just loved being able to experience this phenomenal wonder of the world up-close and personal. Sleeping under the stars was a highlight for me. I have never seen anything like that in my entire life. Breathtaking shooting stars made me not want to close my eyes at night, for fear that I’d miss the show.

We loved it and our guides, Matt, Chris, and Sarah were THE best guides around. They took care of us, entertained us, educated us, and helped our family build memories that will last a lifetime. Thanks to them, we’re already planning our next trip.”
