Arizona Raft Adventures

My husband and I put together a 14 day classic river trip with 24 friends, family and acquaintances down the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon with Arizona Rafting Adventures. (AzRa) The office personnel coordination of the registration and pre-trip logistics was painless. We didn’t realize that this was going to be a magical adventure that would forever live in our hearts and memories. While on the river the highly skilled and knowledgeable AzRa guides filled our heads with the geology, biology, folk lore and the history of the Grand Canyon. We never tired listening to their stories, poetry or readings. Beyond being the narrators of this beautiful country, they skillfully and safely navigated the rapids with enough fun adventure for all of our excitement levels. After a day we all begin to challenge ourselves through the waves, paddling in the paddleboat, single ducky and double ducky following the kayak guides down the whole river. With safety, fun and adventure being the priorities the guides lead us up canyon trails to hidden waterfalls. We played like kids body floating down the Little Colorado River with our life jackets worn like diapers. For lunches on the beaches and at camp we dined like royalty on delicious gourmet meals. When the day was done we slept under the stars, catching a meteor here or there. It was truly an adventure that should be on your to do list sooner than later......Anne and Mike F.

I did a kayaking trip through the Grand Canyon with AzRA few years ago - and it was the best holiday I've ever had. Amazing guides, amazing food, highly professional and an incredible adventure. Can't recommend it enough.

I went with the group of 25 veterans a couple weeks ago and had a blast. The guides knew everything and were excellent hosts. We ate like kings and got to sample every aspect of the canyon I was interested in, from side canyons and waterfalls to ruins and even a helicopter medevac when one of our teammates felt sick. Jay, Owen, and Liam, you guys are amazing and I have been recommending you three and your organization to a lot of people ever since we said our farewells. I hope to return soon and several times. Hats off to you all.

I did the 8-day motor trip in June of 2016 with my family. What an amazing experience! It was my first time ever seeing the Canyon, and I was blown away by it's magnitude and beauty. AzRA did a great job helping my family and I have the adventure of a lifetime. The food was great, the guides were river experts, and they provided us with lots of fun hikes and tips about life on the river. Rafting the Grand Canyon is definitely something everyone should have the opportunity to do, and AzRA is the way to go.

I took the lower Grand Canyon trip Oct. 4-Oct. 12, 2014. On a scale of 1-10, I would give this trip a 15! The scenery was fabulous, the weather perfect, the guides were passionate (and I do not use that word lightly) about the canyon, and best of all, the food was incredible. It was simple, delicious, abundant, and we rafters pounded it down. The hike down the Bright Angel trail was every bit as arduous as they warned about, but I made it. The guides took very good care of us. They read poems or short stories about the Canyon every day, described the geology of the magnificent rocks in great detail, told goofy jokes, and seemed to be having a wonderful time with each other and with us. They worked their butts off from dawn to dusk, rowing all day, then cooking and cleaning up after us. A+, AZRA!
