Grand Canyon river trips aren’t breaking news today, but back in 1934 Bus Hatch’s trip was. Lets take a look at a newspaper announcing his adventure.
Why You Should Get Travel Insurance for Your Grand Canyon River Rafting Trip What exactly is travel insurance and why do you need it?...
Oar-powered trips move at the pace of the Colorado River, meaning you can travel 188 miles in 12 days. Each day your fleet of small rafts will tackle the rapids contained between the walls of Grand Canyon. Along the way, you’ll stop to venture into side canyons, stand beneath waterfalls, swim in creeks and pools, and discover other treasures. Every night, you’ll camp on a sandy beach beside the river.
Skilled Hatch River Expedition guides row our oar powered rafts, lead hikes, and cook your meals, leaving you free to take in all the wonders of Grand Canyon.

It was an excellent mix of guides and experience. Having Zack who is a walking historical and geological encyclopedia was invaluable. I thoroughly enjoyed each and every guide. They were all very competent and hard workers. Holden did a great job guiding his first trip.
Our guides were fantastic! They were incredibly knowledgeable, personable, and overall, helped make the experience GREAT!
Upon post trip re reading of the “Trip Overview” and “Typical Day” documents you sent, I must say they were both accurate and precisely what we experienced. It was an exciting, spectacular, and professionally guided 7 days!
Memories play tricks on us. Compared to our trip with Hatch 15 years ago, this trip was more memorable. The rapids seemed bigger, our group was more cohesive, the experience more intense. I probably had similar wonderful feelings in 2009 since we felt we wanted to do it again and share the experience with our daughter and grandson. In our opinion the oar trip is the only way! Thank you.
