The trip of a lifetime!
Breath taking views. Josh was attentive to everyone, entertaining and knowledgeable. I felt safe both on and off the river, including during some of the more steep hikes. JP the other guide in the lead boat was excellent too as was Luke the newest member to the crew. They were all hard working and took care of everything, plus more. They had some nice bonus surprises at the end of our 7 day trip.
I can’t recommend this trip enough!
Our Grand Canyon rafting trip was amazing! Everything was beyond our expectations and every member of the tour company was a delight to work with.
Rivers and Oceans was an awesome company to book with!
They handled all of the reservations, called to make sure that I had all my questions answered before and after the booking, and sent emails to keep me updated and educated on what the trip would entail. I highly recommend Rivers and Oceans. In addition, the trip will go down as my favorite vacation. The scenery was second to none. There were so many activities to engage in! My adult children and I loved it!
Using Rivers and Oceans was so easy to work with.
Professional group that made planning the trip easy
Thank you!
We’ve had great service from Rivers & Oceans for both our rafting trips. Coming from the UK, we needed a lot of help and support, and their friendly staff have been a godsend especially during the last two years during the pandemic.
This white water rafting trip far exceeded my expectations!
Beautiful excited experience.
7-day Upper Grand Canyon; a trip of a lifetime that will be forever be in my heart!
I had the trip of a lifetime visiting the Upper Grand Canyon (7 days) in July 2022. I cannot stress enough the beauty, isolation, sense of wonder and excitement, excellence in staff, and ease of booking of this trip. This will be forever in your memories, so go ahead and go to the Grand Canyon!
I highly recommend Rivers & Oceans as they helped me assess different booking options, provided timely and relevant information, and were always available by email and phone. They know the river very well and had good suggestions. Due to a time crunch I was able to assess the options and complete the booking in less than 5 business days; Rivers and Oceans was key in helping me doing so. Their customer service is probably in the top 5% percentile out there. Let them guide you through the process and trust their judgement, as they have good experience in the Canyon.
Best.Trip.Ever.
From the planning with Rivers and Oceans to the caring and awesome guides from the Outfitter to the whole group we spent 7 days with…it was awesome. Cannot put into words. It exceeded all expectations.

Sun Protection while Whitewater Rafting
When planning a rafting trip through the canyon, it’s important to consider how to best protect yourself from the sun. The combination of all day exposure and reflected sunlight off the water can be intense. Proper protection allows you to get the most out of your trip and avoid sunburn, heat exhaustion, or even skin damage.
