1/2

Leave the glitz and glamour behind for a day and take a relaxing, yet adventurous, ride down the Colorado River! This unforgettable outing will be filled with nature, history, and of course- lots of fun. This tour is great for parties traveling with kids or in groups.

The journey begins as the group leaves Las Vegas and heads toward Boulder City. Then, jump onboard the rafts and get in the water! The tour begins at the base of the Hoover Dam and takes a relaxing float 11-miles down the river with a trained raft captain leading the way. This part of the river is calm and rapid-free, so all there is to do is take pictures and enjoy the natural beauty of the surrounding area.

There are hot springs all along the river, so get the camera ready! This is a once in a lifetime experience. This area is also packed with wildlife. See big horn sheep grazing along the banks and don’t forget to look down because the river itself is filled with rainbow trout swimming just below the surface of the water. The captain will then pull the raft ashore to a secluded beach where everyone will enjoy a hearty box lunch.

If you have any questions, be sure to ask the captain because he/she will be a wealth of knowledge about the history of the river and the early settlers who once traveled here from the Gulf of Mexico in search of gold and treasures.
