Cities Visited:
Las Vegas, Nevada

Your Grand Canyon vacation begins in the lower 100 miles of the canyon. Here, the Colorado River's famous rapids, though still exciting, are a bit tamer and the scenery is astounding. Massive sandstone cliffs conjure up imaginary shapes. Hidden waterfalls and pools carve their way down to the river. Wildlife is abundant, with frequent sightings of elusive Blue Heron, soaring hawks and eagles, and majestic Big Horn sheep. At night, the canyon walls unveil a heaven of innumerable stars. To top it off, Western’s Grand Canyon 3-day rafting trip offers easy access from Las Vegas, Nevada. Come join Western River Expeditions on an incredible and unforgettable Grand Canyon journey.

    DAY 1
    Meet in the lobby of the Las Vegas Desert Rose Hotel at 6:15 AM where you’ll take a short a bus ride to the North Las Vegas Airport. Enjoy a beautiful flight from Las Vegas to Bar 10 Ranch on the rim of Grand Canyon. Shortly after your arrival to Bar 10, a helicopter will take you deep into Grand Canyon to join your welcoming crew and rafts. After orientation and introductions, you’ll be on your way downriver surrounded by soulstirring scenery. Hold on for Kolb and Mile 209 Rapids!

    DAY 2
    Our J-Rig rafts enter awesome Lower Granite Gorge with a series of moderate rapids including Granite Spring, Diamond Creek and Travertine. We take some time to hike, explore and play at Travertine Grotto, a fantastic series of hidden waterfalls and pools. Run the biggest rapids of the trip, the “230’s.” After your day of adventure, you’ll savor Western’s delicious dinners at the river’s edge and appreciate the unforgettable experience of sleeping under the stars.

    DAY 3
    As you near Lake Mead, the river calms and the canyon widens. Savor your final morning in Grand Canyon as you head down river and across Lake Mead to where a deluxe motor coach will be waiting to return you to Las Vegas (4-hour drive from Lake Mead). Your arrival time in Las Vegas will be approximately 4:30 PM.
