What Are the Different Grand Canyon Rafting Options?
Rafting trips in the Grand Canyon can vary greatly from strenuous trips lasting several weeks, to leisurely excursions spanning a single weekend. For those willing to take on the rugged nature of a Grand Canyon rafting trip, there are a vast array of options to suit nearly any set of preferences. Trips vary greatly in the amenities, length, and difficulty as well as the type of water craft used. The shortest Grand Canyon rafting trips typically last about three days. These trips traverse only half of the canyon and participants will need to either hike down the canyon to the starting point, or hike up the canyon upon completion of their rafting trip. These are known as partial trips.
