Western River Trip Reviews

We booked this trip 2 years ago to celebrate my mom's 60th birthday, but because of the pandemic, we had to reschedule. It was a bummer to have to wait, but when we finally made it, Western River did NOT disappoint!! They are so organized and thoughtful which made this experience that much better.

We had the best river guides - Lucky,...Read More ›

I would say once-in-a-lifetime trip, but that would be false as I wholeheartedly plan on coming back! The whole trip was amazing, I will never forget this experience. Being with nature, unplugging from life and electronics, one on one time with my partner, the views, the rapids, and the food. Everything was incredible.

Our two fearless...Read More ›

We had a fabulous trip with Western River Expeditions. They did a fabulous job of setting expectations and communicating prior to the trip. Our guides were well experienced and prioritized our safety while making sure we had a blast!

We went mid-July when the river still had not plateaued but was past its highest point. We had great...Read More ›

This was my 4th trip with Western River and the second on the Cataract Canyon. The first one was back June of 1996 and in 2004 I did the 6 day Grand Canyon and in 2007 I did the 3-day Grand Canyon and they all were great and very interesting trips. I enjoyed everyone of them and the guides were excellent.

This was an incredible experience from beginning to end. Our family made memories that will last a lifetime. I would recommend this trip to anyone - everyone in our group, young to old, loved the experience. We had the most phenomenal guides - Stephanie, Hiram, Mickey, and Mark. Their professionalism, expertise, and friendliness absolutely made...Read More ›

When my husband asked me to marry him, I told him I didn’t want a diamond, I wanted an experience. He delivered when he accepted an invitation from Boyd Luke to join a chartered Western River Expedition through the Grand Canyon. From the beginning at Lee’s Ferry to being helicoptered out of the canyon to the Bar 10 Ranch, every day was a feast...Read More ›

We in the Lewis/Marais family had a very good experience. We were particularly impressed with our river guides and how well they managed the meals and the outdoor camping experience. They really looked out for us. My grand daughter's favorite acquaintance on the trip was Bob with his dry (almost sardonic) humor.Read More ›

I cannot begin to describe what an awesome experience this was for me. I am 72 and had never done anything quite so far out of my comfort zone. I knew I wanted to have a great adventure and I found it. So many see the Grand Canyon from the top down, but few get to experience it from the river up! The rock formations and the way the light hits...Read More ›
