Grand Canyon Rafting Tours Make Mother's Day Fantastic For Everyone

Mom's special day will be here on Sunday May 12, that isn't too far away, so it is time to make your plans. If you want to treat mom to a float trip in the Grand Canyon, you certainly need to get reservations early because the trips are very popular and the boats only take nineteen people at a time. There are several versions, but they'll all show your mom how much she's appreciated.
About Float Tours Of The Colorado River
Grand Canyon float tours are smooth-water rafting trips. There are no rapids to worry about so these excursions are perfect for senior citizens and kids as young as four years of age. They're a day of fun and excitement for everyone!
You can begin your float tour from Vegas or Tusayan, AZ, which is located right outside the main gates to the Grand Canyon. They last all day and start around 6 or 7 in the morning, even on holidays. It is a lot of fun, but you will probably be worn out when it is over. I suggest not planning anything too elaborate for that evening.
Vegas Rafting Trips
Float trips setting out from Las Vegas combine smooth water rafting with a dramatic West ...
... Rim chopper flight which lands on the bottom of the canyon. Descending the 4000 feet to the canyon floor in a chopper is an exhilarating experience and once you land, you can explore the area on foot.
Afterward, the 'copter will land at the top of the rim, where you'll board a comfortable motor coach for a ride to the base of Hoover Dam. Not many folks get to see the dam from its bottom, with its impressive 700 foot concrete structure towering overhead.
Hoover Dam is where you board the raft for a float tour that takes you to Willow Beach, AZ, 11 miles away. When you gently float your way through the canyon, you will see all kinds of wildlife and pretty, colored rocks. Bring a swimsuit, because you'll have plenty of opportunities to take a dip in the Colorado River. Lunch is provided for all tour participants.
Arizona Raft Trips
You can choose from two raft tours that depart from Arizona. The standard version involves a 2-hour motor coach ride to the base of Glen Canyon Dam at Page, Arizona. When you arrive you'll meet your river guide and be briefed on what to expect during your 15 mile float down the river. This float trip ends at Lee's Ferry, which is an historic site.
The more elaborate version begins by flying in a plane to Page, AZ. When you arrive, you take a Jeep ride through the awe inspiring Antelope Canyon. When you return, you'll begin the rafting portion of the tour.
Your Mom Is Going To Love It!
All these rafting tours pass through some amazing scenery, and they're a relaxing but fun and entertaining way to spend mom's special day. Everything you need is included in the package price such as your gear, tour guide, water, lunch, and with the bus tour, you also get complimentary pickup and drop off at your hotel.
If you want to thrill your mom with one of these smooth-water tours, then you have to book your seats early. Last year these trips sold out. Finally, buy your seats online to get the best price. The discount will save you enough money to buy your mom a special treat!
