Rafting the Grand Canyon in Arizona is truly the adventure of a lifetime. Definitely one for the "bucket list".

A river rafting trip is the only way to gain access to many of those waterfall grottoes and sacred indian ruins.

Endless in scenic wonder, rich in Native American history and loaded with fun and adventure, a Grand Canyon rafting trip is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
