A once-in-a-lifetime experience!
– Ruth G. | TripAdvisor
"Our 8-day Colorado River rafting trip was an experience of a lifetime. I was completely in awe of the grandeur of the Canyon, and the guides, Treven and Adam, were incredible. We ran rapids screaming and floated peacefully, amazed by the scenery. This trip was a perfect blend of adventure, nature, and fun."
The ultimate adventure!
"I just returned from my second trip with GCE. I went with 22 family members, spanning three generations. The guides were incredible, full of passion and expertise. The trip was magical, exhilarating, and gave us memories we will treasure forever. We can’t wait for our next GCE adventure!"

"We had three families on the trip, including kids ages 7-12. The guides kept the kids engaged with age-appropriate activities, and the food was unreal. The eight days flew by, and we saw so much of the Canyon. This adventure is one for the whole family!"
Highly recommended for all ages!
