Spend A Fun Mother"s Day at the Grand Canyon Thanks To Float Tours
Mom's big day is on Sunday, May 12, 2013, so it is time to make plans for the occasion. 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
Float tours of the Grand Canyon stay on smooth water. You don't have to worry about dangerous rapids so the trips are suitable for kids over four years of age and senior citizens too. 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. Plan on letting her rest when you get back to your hotel rather than making plans for a dinner and show.
Raft Trips From Las Vegas
When you book a float trip from Vegas, you get to take a thrilling chopper flight from the top of the West Rim to the floor of the canyon. It's exhilarating to fly 4,000 feet down to the canyon floor, and you can explore the area on foot once your chopper lands.
Next, you will board a tour bus and head for the Hoover Dam. It is an amazing site to stand at the foot of the dam and behold its massive 700 foot height towering above you.
At Hoover Dam you'll hop into a raft for an 11 mile float trip that ends at Willow Beach, Arizona. When you gently float your way through the canyon, you will see all kinds of wildlife and pretty, colored rocks. Be sure to wear a swimsuit because the raft will make stops so you can swim. Lunch is provided for all tour participants.
Raft Tours In Arizona
Two types of rafting tours start in Arizona. The basic float tour involves taking a 2- hour ride by bus to Page, Arizona where the Glen Canyon Dam is located. When you arrive you'll meet your river guide and be briefed on what to expect during your 15 mile float down the river. The trip ends at historic Lee's Ferry.
You can upgrade your float trip by flying into Page rather than taking a bus. When you get to Page, you take a very fun 4x4 Jeep tour of Antelope Canyon that allows you to see some truly magnificent sights. When the Jeep ride is over, your rafting adventure begins.
Mom Will 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 float tours, then you have to book your seats early. The trips usually sell out. So, be sure to get your tickets early and when you buy them, buy them online so you get the internet discount. With the money you save on your discount, you can buy mom a special souvenir or treat!
