tour guide was great, explaned all the different aspects of the landscape, you don't realize how big the Hoover Dam is until you see it from the bottom up, though its not the Grand Canyon, still awesome, we stopped with our bagged lunch and were able to walk around for a bit, the water was way to cold to swim, but we did wade up to our ankles, might do this again, great family day

well we as a group of mates that did this tour and all agreed it was one of the best trips/ days of our lives. The trip was so organised and everything went to plan and on time. The canyon is awsome and the rapids were great fun . We would highly recomend this trip as a must do for a great day in one of the wonders of the world. The helicopter trip at the end of the trip just topped of a fantastic fun day day out.

Very good relaxing tour. Our guide was awesome. He had a great knowledge of the canyon and the surrounding area, but also had a great personality and kept things interesting. It was well worth the time we took from our vacation to do this tour.

I think our guides name was Brian....retired Principal....he made the trip educational as well as fun. He was knowledgable and knew where to see the wildlife. It was beautiful and well worth the time and money.

If you are physically fit and only have time for one trip to the Canyon do this trip! There is nothing about this trip I'd change and I'd happily do it again. You get to spend a significant amount of time on the canyon floor and seeing the river and a helicopter ride to the Rim so you get the best of both worlds. The river guides are fabulous and take good care of you, I cannot organise them highly enough. Things you should know- you will get very wet and cold but it will pass, you do up to a grade 7 rapid and even though I had no experience and was nervous I just held on and thoroughly enjoyed it, you will dry off quickly, the walk to the water fall if worth it, there is plenty of food included and you can always help yourself to more water. Wear river/ reef walker shoes as your shoes will get drenched but you still need a shoe with a decent sole to walk on s,all rocks and slippery rocks. All the hard work is before lunch. he guides have amazing knowledge and are only too willing to share it with you. You only need money on the boat ride for tipping the boatmen, and they deserve a good tip. There are portaloos at the start and end of the white water rafting and at lunch you have time for a discrete wander behind some bushes if you need. You will be tired but its worthwhile, the road into the canyon is bumpy and I think if you had back problems you might be affected. Fabulous trip, well organised and very worthwhile doing.

We had a great time! Wonderful weather and a great guide (Dennis). I'd really recommend it to anyone that wants to get the feel of the canyon and river without the stress and wetness of whitewater rafting. Pick up and drop off at the hotel in LasVegas was really convenient and relaxing. Well worth the cost all the way around!

Great scenary, cool breezes and frequent sightings of big horn sheep and red-tailed hawks. The guide knew her stuff, was helpful and friendly. I'd recommend it to individuals and families.

5 Star gave us a first-class ride from our hotel to the airport, where Mischa (our pilot) was amazing! Her personality just shined as we headed to the helicopter for an absolutely amazing ride past Hoover Dam and into the Grand Canyon. There was no wind, so she gave us a bird's eye view of everything. The helicopter ride could not have been better! Mischa was very informative about the area as well. We then rode in luxury again to our rafting trip. Leslie was our tour guide for the rafting trip and she was very informative as well and an amazing boat operator. There was a little mix-up on our transportation back to the hotel, but a wonderful gentleman from 5 Star gave us a ride back. Come to find out...he was the owner! Thank you all for a great day!!!

Fun day out but a very long day so be very prepared. 4am pick-up time a little painful when on vacation, perhaps an overnight stay should be considered.

Great trip. Guides were knowledgeable and informative. Our guide, Brian, also had a great way with words and kept us entertained. This trip was slightly let down by the quality of the supplied packed lunch, but otherwise difficult to fault.

Helicopter tour was amazing thanks to 5 star grand canyon helicopter tours. The pilot was just super friendly and a really cool person. The raft ride was also awesome, but it would have been nice to be in a smaller raft and maybe a shorter ride.

One word; Incredible!!
We booked this trip two months in advance and weren’t sure what to expect with the combination of helicopter and boat- we couldn't have been more pleased with the experience!
We were greeted by a lovely guy who picked us up from our hotel in a new mini bus and kept us entertained on the short trip to the small airport to board our helicopter. We were greeted and offered drinks and refreshments in a very nice building before meeting our wonderful lady pilot! She was confident, fun, engaging and interesting and made our flight (just over an hour- longer than expected) so worthwhile! The views were incredible- a must see- and we thoroughly enjoyed flying through the Grand Canyon and over the rivers surrounding it.
We were then picked up again by our lovely driver and taken to another hotel where we would be transported to pick up our boat down via an old fashioned El Dorado ranch. Once again, we had a lovely informative driver and a great look around this old ranch before being met by another guy to take us out on the water. Again- an incredible experience!! Blue sky, peaceful and calm undisturbed water, great lunch, interesting stories and little stops along the way.
We had the most perfect day and would repeat it again, or recommend it to others, in a heartbeat!!
A Class Tour!
