Itinerary
Be immersed in the extraordinary landscape of Grand Canyon on our 8-day/7-night raft trip. You’ll explore hidden gems that can only be accessed by river like Redwall Cavern, Stone Creek, and Vulcan’s Anvil. Take the rare opportunity to fall asleep under a blanket of stars, worn and exhilarated from the day’s adventures. This trip includes about 35 more river miles than our 7 day trip, as well as round-trip, ground transportation from Flagstaff, AZ.
Grand Canyon Whitewater provides experienced guides, great food, rafting and camping gear, and a detailed trip information packet with a packing list. This is an active, outdoor expedition; it is recommended that guests prepare for the physical nature of the trip, and bring a sense of adventure.
GCW’s motorized rafts are 35-feet long, seat 14 people per raft and have one guide driving from the stern. Because we always run two rafts per trip you can expect 28 passengers on your adventure. The type of motorized raft we run is called an S-Rig and guests say we have the most comfortable set-up in the Grand Canyon.
Transportation
Round-trip transportation from Flagstaff, AZ is included. You will need to spend the night before your trip launches in Flagstaff, as we will pick guests up early the morning of the trip and travel 2.5 hours through scenic northern Arizona to the launch point. Early on the last day of your expedition, a charter bus will carry you from the remote take-out point back to Flagstaff.
Pre- and Post-Trip Lodging
We recommend spending both the night before your river trip and the night your trip ends in Flagstaff. We will notify guests of the designated Flagstaff hotel.
