	Grand Canyon Tours

The Grand Canyon is considered THE natural wonder in all the world. Nearly 300 miles long and 4 - 18 miles wide, this captivating chasm of geology, breathtaking beauty, and changing light and shadows, is over a mile deep. The South Rim is some 7,000 feet above sea level, while the higher North Rim is between 8,000 and 9,000 feet (and closed in the winter). The amazing tapestry of the Grand Canyon's color, as well as its 2 billion year old rock deposits and exquisite sculpturing process, by erosion, is like no other. As a National Park it is where superlatives go to die. Hiking, walking, or general sightseeing above either rim will provide memories to last a lifetime, and then some.

HAVASU CANYON which is the setting where the Havasupai Indians live inside the canyon, is in the western ramparts of the Grand Canyon, or the Grand Canyon "West" country (still the South Rim). This peerless part of the Grand Canyon is also where the canyon's most idyllic scenery can be found, including the amazing blue-green waters and the immense waterfalls that are found below the 900-year-old Indian Village, one of which is some 40 feet higher than Niagara Falls. This tour is for hiking and/or backpacking.

To raft the Grand Canyon, we provide an all-day WHITE WATER RAFTING tour that takes in the last 60 or so miles the Grand Canyon "West" country. Some consider this stretch of the canyon the most awesome, while everyone considers this all-day rafting tour the best ride for their time and money.
