The guides were the best..Joe & Shad were on our boat, but the other two guides were just as nice.  The food was so very good (& I'm very fussy when it comes to food) they were full of information.  They were very entertaining.  The whole experience...Read More » »

One of the most extraordinary vacations ever. If you haven't seen the Grand Canyon from the river, you haven't really seen it. Guides Ben, Kurt, Kelly and Parker are Young Jedis with their knowledge of the river, and some of the hardest working young...Read More » »

Tuesday, August 16, 2011 by Western River Trip Review
At least once, everyone who possibly can should make this Grand Canyon voyage. The Grand Canyon and the river are like nothing else. How you make the trip is up to you, but if you choose a motor raft Western is the only choice. Their J-rig is by far...Read More » »
