Story

From the beginning days of river rafting, in the middle part of last century, Western River Expeditions has been a pioneer for the rafting industry. For example, the first self-bailing boat floors used on the exploratory trips in Mexico's now lost rivers (El Sumidero, and Rio Grijalva) in 1962, or the creation of the J-Rig - designed specifically for the safest and best ride over the large waves of the Grand Canyon. Many other industry devices from modern toilet boxes and ingenious foot-action hand-wash systems used today were spear-headed by Western and approved as the standard by the Park Service as needed. But for all the contraptions and gizmos that make life better on the river, we've never forgotten what it's really all about - helping others experience life by canyon and river. Just that simple goal of sharing the rivers and canyons we love with as many people as possible continues to be our ultimate satisfaction and goal. We are now the largest outfitter in the Grand Canyon, and also operate many other high quality trips throughout the west.

Mission

The "Western Way" is a company culture that has been cultivated over five decades. It is an attention to detail that doesn't always allow us to take the easy way, but which we all believe is well worth the extra effort. We hire and train amazingly talented people, and the combination of their personalities and skills creates something that is truly outstanding. We are all very passionate about what we do and aout the special places in which we are privileged to live and work. We think of ourselves as shepherds with a duty to lead our guests through these canyons and deliver them safe and happy at the end. Along the way we hope to teach, entertain, encourage, inspire, and create lasting friendships. Seeing these places for the first time again, through the eyes of our guests, gives us our greatest satisfaction.

GUEST COMMENTS:

“This was truly a family adventure, not a vacation. Vacations leave you with fading memories. Adventures create an appreciation for everything around you and a non-stop desire to return for more. This journey has virtually everything someone with an adventuresome spirit could want with all the comforts thrown in for good measure." Kim, California | Grand Canyon Trip

“I am a 15 year old girl and I had doubts about doing a rafting trip for 5 days in the middle of nowhere without the comforts of home. I came out of the trip crying because I had the most fun of my life! This trip will change your life forever and make you into the person you really are." Katy, Virginia | Utah- Green River 4 Day Trip

"As a local [of Utah] I am often asked why I don’t go on Vacation in California or Nevada. Disneyland has no ride to match thrills you get when you hit white water. As for the glitter of Las Vegas, the Milky Way far out shines anything Vegas has to offer!" Mary, Utah | Utah- Cataract Canyon 4 Day Trip
