A Canyoneers river rafting company inflated boat rides down the Colorado River deep within Grand Canyon National Park. Canyoneers is the oldest of the Grand Canyon river outfitters, based in Flagstaff, Arizona.
This boat is one of their "C-Craft" 37-foot inflated pontoon boats, designed to be the safest and most comfortable boats rafting Grand Canyon. Passengers can sit wherever they like, which makes for more fun. For instance, if you're feeling hot, you can sit at the front of the boat where you'll get soaked going through the bigger rapids. Instant cool-down. If you don't want to get wet, or want to watch the crew drive the boat, you can sit near the back. And in the many smooth water sections between rapids, the Pilot of the boat will tell you when it's safe to go out onto the outside pontoons, to sit back against the boat and sunbathe, or just watch the grand scenery go slowly by.
It's no wonder that doing a whitewater river rafting trip down Grand Canyon is universally held to be a world class experience.
