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 ›

From the bus to Boulder City, the flight to Marble Canyon, the seven days of pure peace, calm and adrenaline rushes, outstanding guides, excellent food, sleeping on a cot under the star- and moon-lit evenings, the wonderful camaraderie, breathtaking helicopter flight, and to finally the flight back to Boulder City -- Top-notch...Read More ›

From start to finish it was a wonderful experience. The guides could not have been better. Full of stories and how they could cook. The boats were very safe and you had no problem during the entire trip with any anxiety. The water and surrounding scenery could not have been more spectacular. All in all it was the best trip ever. I highly recommend...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!!

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!

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 ›

The Western Rivers' staff, from the office staff to the guides, is top notch, with their top priority the comfort and...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.

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 ›

This was a trip of a lifetime. Our guides were so knowledgeable and fun and I always felt safe and cared for. I learned so much about the Grand Canyon and got to challenge myself while feeling totally safe. The food was fantastic and the camping experience could not have been better. I highly recommend this experience.
