My wife and I travel a lot and don’t usually go back to the same experience this quickly but we enjoyed this life-enhancing experience the first time in 2020 and knew we had to go back.
We were able to share our first experience within a few months and gathered enough friends and family to charter an entire boat. An excellent way to share...Read More ›
I don’t use the word transcendent much, but 6 days in the Grand Canyon looking from the bottom up requires it. A woman with whom we shared an airport cab at five AM the morning after the trip said I had “an exhausted glow” about me. The trip was challenging, it managed to remind me of my age but without making me embarrass myself....Read More ›

Starting with the experience of a small plane, to the Bar 10 Ranch (which deserves its own 5-star rating), to the helicopter ride - it was a surreal way to start our adventure. Upon arrival at the...Read More ›
Everyone writes their reviews about how beautiful the canyon trip is and how amazing all of the staff are. I couldn't agree more. It was a trip of a lifetime.
There is one experience I want to add/share that I had not expected. We did this as a family trip with grown kids and teenage grandkids. One of the best things was, everyone being...Read More ›
This was a mind-blowing once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Rapids were huge. 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 ›
