Indeed a grand expedition! Trip leader Joe Clark, 1st mate Mairead and mate Jesse came with their best A+ game. Their caring, knowledge, and experience took this trip over the top. The Canyon and the stars at night were breathtaking. The rapids that occasionally clobbered us were welcome and refreshing. The hikes and camping were wonderful and...Read More ›
Of course, the landscape is breathtaking and at every turn, you are in awe. But I am writing to let you know that we had the most fantastic guides... Knowledgeable, kind, funny, genuinely the best guys... They MADE the trip... it was so much fun with them.

Upon arrival at the...Read More ›

The j rig boat is gigantic and cruises right through them with a healthy amount of splashing, and the right amount of danger to get your adrenaline pumping. I never felt unsafe. The views were spectacular. River guides were top-notch. Professional. Courteous....Read More ›
This was my second time rafting the Grand Canyon...both times with Western River Expeditions. I would not consider any other outfitter for this trip. On my first trip about 7 years ago, I remember saying that the only thing that could have made it better is if I'd known more folks on my raft. This time, I filled up my raft with 17 folks I knew....Read More ›
The trip we took at the beginning of August was one of the top10 trips we have taken... and I have visited 38 countries. The entire trip from starting point in Las Vegas to the Helicopter ride out from the base of the Grand Canyon was professional and well managed. Ben, Lat, Shelby, and Poco were terrific guides that knew the history and...Read More ›
