Our Grand Canyon 7-day trip was one of the most memorable vacations we have ever taken. It was exhilarating, and at times exhausting. Rapids tossing you around like a cork, but an incredible ride, and then the calm parts of the Colorado feeling so nice and peaceful, giving you a chance to take in the scenery and learn about the Canyon from our...Read More ›
We just returned from our 3 day Grand Canyon river rafting and camping trip. I really wasn’t sure what to expect despite seeing the online videos. I can honestly say it was an amazing experience from start to finish. I’m not exactly an outdoor campfire girl but by the time our trip ended I was a seasoned camper and white water rider!

This was one EPIC trip! Our guides-MacKay, Marade, Travis, and Melissa were absolutely the BEST! They were all professional, funny, and knowledgeable. The river was exciting and Travis and Melissa were very experienced and in control!
I highly recommend this trip, these guides, and the company! I will be doing another trip with Western...Read More ›
One thing I have to say, it’s always the people you have that run a business. Joe and Jace made the trip amazing. It’s hard to find people that are knowledgeable and extremely dedicated to their jobs because they GENUINELY want to be there, and not just because it’s a paycheck. Your guys made the trip everything it was and went beyond me, my...Read More ›
After talking about a rafting trip in the Grand Canyon many years ago, we finally booked our trip in our mid-60s. We are so thankful that we did!
Western River had outstanding communications and preparation tips prior to our trip. I went on the trip feeling some trepidation about the big rapids after watching videos. However, trip leader...Read More ›
Our September 2021 trip was unforgettable! Camping under the stars (and SO many of them), fabulous food, amazing staff (both on the boat and in the office), and unforgettable scenery. No words can truly do it all justice!

I have been to the Grand Canyon several times, once down to Havasu Falls, but never on the river. The perspective is so different, so spectacular, so immersive-there is simply no comparison. One of the many highlights was the black volcanic rock, polished to a bright, smooth finish by the water, standing in sharp contrast to the bright red...Read More ›
From start to finish this trip was absolutely amazing! Our guides were professional, knowledgeable, full of great history and stories galore. They were funny and helpful and great chefs. They worked together like a well-oiled machine. Makai, Marade, Travis, and Melissa were THE BEST!!
Floating through the Grand Canyon was magical!! I...Read More ›
This started out as a whitewater rafting trip and became so much more. The rapids did not disappoint as we went during the rainy season while the river was fast and high. It was clear to see why it is one of the best rivers in the world. Western River lined us up with a great itinerary so it took a lot of logistical stress out of the trip. The...Read More ›

How to sum up such an experience?
My Dad decided to celebrate his 80th Birthday with his family on a river trip, and it was a fantastic celebration.
I am guessing most river trips are a pretty good time, but the Western River experience was A+. The guides were a huge part of our experience, and we miss them! These...Read More ›
