Grand Canyon rafting trips

Does anyone know of a good, not terribly expensive rafting trip for a father and son (50/21) that goes for a few days and does not have a lot of hiking? Thanks, litkikr@aol.com



Grand Canyon rafting trips


There are 2 short rafting trips on the Colorado River accessible from LV. Hualapai River Runners offers a one-day experience, see: www.destinationgrandcanyon.com



That trip requires either driving to Peach Springs in AZ (about 2.5 hours from LV, all paved, easy driving) or buying a tour package which includes air or heli travel.



There are also several sources of a 3-day rafting trip which begins with an air flight from LV or Boulder City to the Bar Ten Ranch near the Grand Canyon.



Here is an example:

There are other tour companies providing the same trip. Try to deal with the actual tour provider and not a tour agency.
