Canyon walls rise a thousand feet into the sky; mysterious messages carved into stone by the Ancient Ones; sit back, relax, listen and learn as you share the story behind the scenery of one America’s great rivers.
This is a Grand Canyon River Rafting trip your whole family will remember forever, from pre-schoolers to great-grandparents and everyone in between! The Colorado River Discovery Half Day Float Trip is Northern Arizona’s #1 Grand Canyon tour.
Your adventure begins at the Colorado River Discovery Office in Page/Lake Powell, Arizona. After a brief check-in, you’ll board a motorcoach bound for the base of the Glen Canyon Dam, where you meet your river guides and begin your journey down the river. Keep your eyes cast skyward for eagles, herons, maybe even a California condor as you drift on the crystal clear water, carried by the gentle current of the Colorado River.
Mid-way through your trip, you’ll take a short walk into a side canyon where you’ll examine a panel of petroglyphs. These pictures were etched into the canyon walls hundreds, maybe thousands of years ago by the one of the area’s first inhabitants, the Ancestral Puebloans.
After coasting around Horseshoe Bend, your trip concludes at historic Lees Ferry. Here, you bid your river captain farewell, and greet your motorcoach driver once again, who shuttles you back to Page in air conditioned comfort. Don’t “zone out” on the ride back – you’ll miss the gravity-defying balanced rock formations of Marble Canyon and the rugged cliffs of the Navajo Indian Reservation.
This stretch of the Colorado River has no rapids, so children as young as 4 can take part! Pontoon boats can accommodate up to 20 people. Book your seats today!
