Great adventure

Be sure to take everything you'll need whether kayaking or rafting (sunscreen, sunshirts, hat, towels if wanted, water bottles). Rafting got us up close and personal to Dam.

Recommend this trip - to view by from Gran Canyon by Helicopter

Fun day viewing the Hoover Damn, Lake Meed, Grand Canyon and the Vegas Strip by Helicopter. Kayak trip was really well managed and fun.

A really great day out with our awesome tour guide Don

We had such a fun day visiting the Emerald Cave. Don, our guide, made the trip so fun and informative. He took lots of pix for us all. We got the chance to swim in the river (cold but oh so good), and just generally enjoy the scenery.
