About Us

At Home on the Colorado River

Wilderness River Adventures, with over 50 combined years of experience as white water outfitters, specializes in rafting adventures on the Colorado River through Grand Canyon National Park, and Horseshoe Bend in Glen Canyon National Recreation Area.

From our founding days, we’ve focused on ensuring an unrivaled experience for our guests. We believe an adventure vacation is only as good as your guide, which is why we choose to work with the most experienced, knowledgeable, and hospitable guides on the Colorado River. Our guides are like family to us, and some of them have chosen to spend a lifetime with Wilderness River Adventures.

Our Mission

At Wilderness River Adventures, we have one goal: to provide you with the experience of a lifetime. We strive to let the Colorado River’s never-ending current carry you to new discoveries—natural, historical, and within yourself. We serve as your guides, teachers, cooks, and friends, encouraging you to fully immerse yourself in each day’s adventure. Each river rafting journey is unique, and we offer it to our guests with absolute authenticity and a deep commitment to sharing our passion for the waters that flow through Grand Canyon, Cataract Canyon and Glen Canyon.

Our Belief

We’ve always believed that better equipment makes for better experiences. That’s why we constantly update our rafts and our gear—ensuring each trip is safe, memorable, and comfortable. From our 37-foot motor-powered rafts built with rugged neoprene and compartmentalized air chambers for added safety, to the assurance that each guest receives a brand new sleeping bag at the beginning of our extended trips, Wilderness River Adventures knows what goes into making the experience of a lifetime.
