1 Day Whitewater Rafting Grand Canyon Adventure

If the adventure of the Colorado River rapids tickles your fancy, then the 1 day whitewater rafting Grand Canyon adventure is just the amusement you are looking for. Amidst the Hualapai Indian Tribal Lands, this journey commences in lovely Peach Springs, Arizona, directly off historic Route 66.

Once you begin your journey at the Hualapai Reservation, a wonderful day of mystery and excitement will ensue. But safety is always a key element of rafting, so an experienced Hualapai Indian guide, known as a River Runner, will lead you throughout the day.

Be advised that the tour begins promptly at 7 a.m., and getting there several minutes early would be to your advantage. Many eager beavers choose to spend the night at the Hualapai Lodge, in order to be close to the site, and be ready for what lies ahead. Booking early is crucial, as these trips are quite popular. Longer rafting trips are also available.

The first part of the journey occurs by bus, as you drive to Diamond Creek to get ready to depart by raft for a forty-two mile journey. From this point, you will board your motorized raft which can comfortably hold up to eight people. Since the rapids are not that wild, this could be fun for the entire family, including older children. Prepare yourself for a full ten-hour day of wonderment in the water.

Along the 1 day whitewater rafting Grand Canyon trip, you will stop for a hike, break for lunch, and reconvene for the remainder of this awesome ride. Along the way, you will witness waterfalls, and the incredible power of the Colorado River. Once the rafting is completed, enjoy native foods or a nice dinner at the Diamond Creek Restaurant back at Peach Springs.

You can say goodbye to this great place knowing that you truly experienced something wonderful on your 1 day whitewater rafting Grand Canyon experience.
