Western River Trip Reviews

My second trip and my wife Cheryl’s first. Cheryl was amazed how well coordinated everything was and how thoughtful western expeditions was about her dietary needs ,Not to mention all the beauty going through the canyon. My first trip was great but this trip was fantastic beautiful weather wild rapids and EVERY person in our group were some of the...Read More ›

The guides were terrific and so were the fellow travelers. It was full of gorgeous vistas and great fun!! This was an extraordinary trip -loved every minute!!

I am a "fraidy cat" who would have opted out of this trip if given the chance. My husband and friends were so excited about going that I was unable to get out of it. Boy, am I glad! It was an experience of a lifetime. Of course, the scenery was gorgeous... that goes without saying but the staff and the J-rig boats made it fun and took away the...Read More ›

Great times on the Colorado River. From start to finish, RD and his crew were excellent. From insights and knowledge of the Grand Canyon and the Colorado River, to great food and water rapid knowledge, we all felt safe and taken care of the whole time. RD and his crew allowed everyone to relax and shared their love of the Canyon and River. No...Read More ›

You haven't seen the Grand Canyon until you experience it from the Colorado River! I have hiked and backpacked many miles in the Canyon, but seeing the Canyon from east to west from the river is a once in a lifetime experience. The Western Rivers' staff, from the office staff to the guides, is top notch, with their top priority the comfort and...Read More ›

Treated like royalty. Plane ride - Helicopter - Bar 10, great fellow travelers, Great food! Beautiful night skies - milky way, constellations. What better experience could anyone have. Warm, but I'm from the South. Older and retired. A little (a lot?) out of shape - didn't matter - I was taken care of. If anyone has a hesitation, get over it. GO...Read More ›

Could not ask for better experience! R.D. Tucker and crew Micah, Elora, Willy all did amazing job. They all put an added GRAND in our Grand Canyon experience. R.D. was correct, I'm missing the simple life of the river.

Can't wait to come back!

Cannot say enough. You do not need to comment on the grandeur, and power of the Canyon and the River, except to say, we are fortunate that man has been kept from destroying and commercializing this natural beauty. I never left the front of the raft, and that 8:30 AM wake up call of 50 degree water was a heart stopper, but what lay ahead was worth...Read More ›

So fine, just amazing, this was my second trip and just as good and just as fun and exciting, my crew leaders were the best in the west, also the other families were so outstanding and fun, I would do it over again. thank you. AWESOME.

Exceeded nearly all of my expectations. Safe (although not with out risk) and exciting. Top of the Line Service.

Seems like an extremely well organized company that wants to provide top level service for visiting guests to this treasured natural wonder while maintaining the highest standards possible in protecting the extremely sensitive...Read More ›
