6-Day Motorized Trip, Meals Included

Six days of motorized rafting through the Grand Canyon, run by Wilderness River Adventures, meals on the river and a flight included.

Overview

This six-day motorized raft trip covers 188 miles through the Grand Canyon, running 67 rapids along the way. It is run by Aramark Destinations through Wilderness River Adventures, and it begins with a scenic flight from Las Vegas to Page, with return transportation arranged at the end.

Days on the river are spent running rapids, drifting beneath canyon walls that rise close to a mile overhead, and stopping at waterfalls and ancient Indigenous ruins. Wildlife sightings often include eagles, condors, bighorn sheep, coyotes, foxes, and mule deer. Guides handle all the cooking on the river and share commentary on geology, astronomy, and canyon folklore between stops.

The trip suits travellers in good physical condition who can commit to nearly a week outdoors. Camp gear is provided, including a tent, cot, sleeping bag, camp chair, and life jacket, along with all meals on the river, soft drinks, and drinking water. Anyone considering the hike in or out of the canyon option should be prepared for a 10-mile walk, and all participants need to arrive in Page the day before departure for a Meet and Greet orientation.

What To Expect From The Tour

A few practical points from the listing help set expectations before booking this trip.

• Fitness required. Participants must be in good physical condition. The listing is especially firm on this for anyone requiring the 10-mile hike in or out of the canyon, so be honest about your conditioning before reserving.
• Arrive a day early. You need to be in Page the night before departure and attend the Meet and Greet at Wilderness River Adventures Headquarters that evening.
• Camp gear covered. The trip supplies a tent, cot, sleeping bag, camp chair, cup, life jacket, and waterproof storage for clothes and camera. All meals on the river, soft drinks, and drinking water are included too.
• Pack the small stuff. Personal items are on you. The listing flags sunscreen, sunglasses, a hat, toiletries, a toothbrush, prescription medication, a camera, hiking boots, and lightweight clothing as things to bring yourself.
• Alcohol is optional. Alcoholic beverages are not part of the package but can be packed or ordered from Fred's Liquor Store.
• Wildlife watching. The canyon hosts eagles, condors, bighorn sheep, coyotes, foxes, and mule deer. Binoculars are listed as not included, so bring your own if you want a closer look.

Common issues. The main practical limit is physical condition, since the listing requires participants to be fit, and the 10-mile canyon hike option is demanding. Accommodation in Page the night before departure is required, so plan for that extra night before the river days begin. Personal gear like sunscreen, toiletries, medication, and binoculars is excluded, so there is a packing list to sort out before you go. No traveller reviews of this exact trip were available at the time of writing, so the picture here comes from the operator's own listing rather than independent accounts.
