      About this trip

      My1FitLife Grand Canyon Whitewater Rafting Adventure 


      We launched this Adventure last year and it sold out in 10 minutes, so we knew we needed to get this one back on the books!! Now is your chance to make it happen!


      Why not combine the awe-inspiring Grand Canyon with the powerful, exhilarating Colorado River to create the ideal western trip? The Grand Canyon river tour is the premier white water rafting trip in the American West. The eight-night Grand Canyon river tour covers the entire length of the Grand Canyon, beginning at Lee’s Ferry and ending at Lake Mead. This trips combines world class white water with breathtaking scenery to make one unforgettable river experience.

      Your trip begins at the Marble Canyon Lodge, in Arizona, where you spend the first night preparing for your trip. That evening you will meet your guide for an orientation meeting where you can ask questions and get any last minute items. You can also purchase beer and wine at Marble Canyon.

      The following morning you pack your duffel bag and depart for Lee’s Ferry where the boats will be waiting for you. After your bags are packed on the boat everyone gets on and your rafting trip begins.

      For the next seven days you will run exciting rapids like Houserock, Hance, Hermit, Granite Falls, Crystal, Lava Falls, and many more. You will see beautiful side canyons and swimming holes including Little Colorado, Elves Chasm, Deer Creek, Havasu Creek, and Travertine Falls. Each morning you will be greeted by the beautiful song of the Canyon Wren and the smell of hot coffee brewing in the kitchen. Your guide will prepare you a hot breakfast every morning which includes fresh fruit and fruit juice. For lunch you will have sandwiches with all the trimmings. Tour West provides cold water and lemonade at all times as well as candy bars and fruit for snacks during the day. At night all your gear will be unloaded, this includes your personal duffel bag and your cot. While you are setting up your camp your guide will be preparing a hearty dinner of steak and potato or chicken and pasta. Each dinner also has a vegetable with a fresh tossed salad and your choice of dressing. After dinner you are free to explore the canyon or sit on your cot and watch a beautiful sunset and listen to the music of the river. The last 34 miles of your trip are spent traveling between the sheer walls and graceful tiers of the upper stretches of beautiful Lake Mead. At trip’s end, you will be transported to Las Vegas airport by bus.

      Fantastic adventure. We saw and experienced so much. We challenged ourselves to walk on glaciers, climb up hills, taste 1000 year old glacial ice, drink from the well of the guide's family farm (water that his ancestors say was key to them living to be centenarians). The magic of Iceland came alive as our in country guides showed us all their special places, foods, traditions and history. There were so many stories. And we created stories of our own as a group and individually. Great group of people, great guides, and an unforgettable experience. Highly recommend Michelle and Keith's trips. This one changed me!

      This was an incredible adventure. Once again Keith, Michelle, and those in the background knocked it out of the park. The company they found for this trip, Midgard Base Camp, was amazing and made us feel like part of their family. I know we went places and saw things that other tour companies don’t do. Walking on glaciers, getting wet under numerous waterfalls (who cares if it is cold if you are dressed right), seeing icebergs off of a glacier float down a river and washing up on the beach, super jeeps on the beach and crossing rivers were all some of the things we did and saw. And the food?? Holy cow it was fantastic. We will definitely be traveling with them again in the future.

      An amazing trip, well organized, and great people from drivers, guide, and organizers. Highly recommend. Checked all my boxes to see and do everything I imagined. Was just fabulous. Thank you all.

      This adventure was amazing! Michelle and Keith were helpful and supportive, providing information and assistance as needed. The accommodations were beautiful and luxurious, and the excursions were well-planned. Bali’s beauty is only overshadowed by its people. I had never traveled solo with a group like this, and it was a wonderful way to see the county without being “alone”, there was a camaraderie that made the trip even more special. There was zero drama (amazing with 20 women!) and I felt safe sharing and being part of as much (or as little) of the group activities as I wanted. Push yourself a bit and GO to Bali- you’ll be glad you did!

      The Utah immersion was a fantastic experience. I have traveled to and explored this area before on my own but the adventures planned with guides were truly places and moments I don’t think I could have ever had on a solo visit. On top of that, the rest, recuperation and relaxation pieces during this trip were the escape that I very much needed!
