My wife and I have just finished the 15 day rafting and hiking trip and couldn't have been more happy with the experience Grand Canyon Whitewater gave us. The setting is, of course, magical. But what made the trip so memorable for us was the guide team. Lead by Tristan - who was very knowledgable, decisive but chilled, technically strong, and fun - the guide team went the extra distance in every respect to give us the best experience. The meals were excellent, the hikes they led were great, their knowledge of the canyon and its history was first rate, and they kept us laughing the entire trip. Thank you all!
I want this review to be extraordinary just like Grand Canyon Whitewater company. After reserving a spot I received an email from Grand Canyon Whitewater whereby I was given a link to their website with all the information I would be needing to know. There were videos on YouTube about how to pack, what to pack and what to expect. Fellow rafters were invited to leave a bio explaining a little bit about themselves. I was going on this adventure with 25 people that I didn't know for a total of 10 days. Once we were off the bus and loaded onto the rafts, we were at the mercy of our guides. No turning back, no cellphone service and best of all no contact with anybody other than my new river family. Our crew was incredible. Every meal was perfection. With precision they quickly could set up the kitchen cook the meals and serve it up to us hungry rafters. Every day on the river brought a new adventure. Matt was very informative about the geology and all the stories from past explorers. Office guy Dean who came along on this trip surprised everyone when he brought out his guitar on the seventh day and serenaded us. He was good. Blake and Anna were the boatsmen on the other raft. They always had smiles on their faces and were willing to help out with anything. Our crew definitely made our trip outstanding. Taking a trip like this is life changing. I'm so thankful to everyone that helped me enjoy an experience I wouldn't have been able to do without you all. CRYSTAL
What an experience. 10 Day motor. With Matt, Dean, Blake, and Anna. Day 1 started with rain and a short raft. Great beach party until wind came up. Managed and had an awesome salmon dinner. The crew were great leaders, chefs 👨🍳, and seekers of suitable lunch and camp sites. With multiple levels of physical abilities this was key for amenity set ups. Day 2 brought cold water and rain. Again we endured the raging white water from the river and the drops from the sky. Matt and Dean were great story tellers and historians. I think Blake and Anna had the same stories. We ad opportunities to challenge ourselves throughout the trip with 22 passengers plus the kitchen, food, and other essentials, a Fireside brought creativity and new words: 'cot' ya, 'tent'alizing..tantalizing... etc. I was able to kayak a short distance as were others. Stake dinner to order with simulated campfire was a nice closure for the last night. Our group found new friends amongst ourselves and with our hosts. Wish I were there again already. Looking forward to the next time. Thank you for helping me discover more of my Abilities. Toni
We just got off a 7 day Lees Ferry to Whitmore Wash trip this past week. In short, it was an incredible trip. I have a background in river running--having guided in Dinosaur National Monument when I was younger so I can appreciate a little more than average the service and quality of the experience. The Grand Canyon has always been on my bucket list. Grand Canyon Whitewater and their guides (Evan, Caitie, Savannah and Walt) exceeded my expectations. Words are inadequate to describe the beauty of the canyon--you have to experience it yourself. My interaction leading up to the trip with GCW was exceptional--they do a great job preparing you for the trip. The guides on our trip were fantastic both on the river and in camp. My work situation does not allow me to get away for a longer trip (I would like to do an longer oar raft trip and take some more time in the canyon) but the motorized raft trip was perfect for my first time exposure to the canyon. I did this with my 17 and 18 year old sons and they loved the trip! (they especially enjoyed the helicopter ride out of Whitmore wash and the plane ride back to Paige and seeing from the air what we had been experiencing in the canyon. In short, take the trip! It will change your life for the better
Rafting the GC has been on my my bucket list for years and Grand Canyon Whitewater did not disappoint. Skilled and knowledgeable guides. I would recommend this outfit to anyone who wanted to explore the canyon up close and personal.
