Choosing a company for your Grand Canyon adventure isn’t easy, and we admit we’re more than slightly biased recommending Arizona River Runners. But don’t just take it from us, see what others are saying.
We often hear from guests that it is difficult to find the words to explain their experience. As John Wesley Powell said, “the wonders of the Grand Canyon cannot be adequately represented in symbols of speech, nor by speech itself.” Thankfully, many people have done their best to describe their journey and thoughts with potential guests. We hope their words help paint a picture of what awaits you in the canyon.

Never witnessed stars so bright. River trip amazing. Scenery stark. Staff made it feel like their holiday too with great food. How did they keep the ice cold, how did they make the food hot? The ranch day was a nice diversion. The overall weather was great. Jumping in the river or washing in the waterfall, or sliding off the raft, all good fun, Snacks and drinks all day and warning of "a gentle ripple coming up" from Brandy. The geology was gently done and enough to absorb easily. Well done Nateread less

It was great from pretrip info and emails to making connections to get home. The raft crew was skilled, superb sources of info and regular good people. Food was great and all equipment supplied was appropriate and in good condition. You don’t know what you have booked until you are doing it. I will gladly recommend highly.read less

And of course there's the incomparable scenery. I have seen the grand canyon from multiple perspectives, and this is the one that allows the most intimate feeling. The side hikes are wonderful. The mix of river and land time is perfect. Could not recommend more strongly.read less
