Just completed an amzing 9 day rafting down the Colorado through the Canyon with my son. The star filled skies at night, the excitement of some of the best white water rapids and above all the most beautiful scenary was breathtaking. Our river guides made all the diffrence in providing an adrenaline filled, but safe rafting and hiking experience to... More

What a trip of a lifetime. Anyone wanting to go and explore the Gran Canyon on a Motorized raft I highly recomment Crate. My wife and I will talk about this trip for years. The Guides where amazing and we got to see some amazing sights along the way. The food was fantastic and sleeping under the stars at night... More

This is my fourth trip rafting the Colorado with CRATE. Love them! This motorized trip is for people who love the outdoors, but not quite the rigors of a non-motorized trip. If you don't like that much time in the outdoors, do their 8-day trip or a shorter trip somewhere else. All sections of the river have fantastic geologic and... More

This was a trip of a lifetime! Our group of four chose to do the six day trip this time but will likely do the nine day trip next time to see the entire canyon. Our CRATE guides' knowledge, skill, and competency provide a comfort level, not to mention they were also a lot of fun and great cooks too!... More

This was my second trip with CRATE in the past 4 years. The first trip was just the upper river with a hike out at the Phantom area. This year's trip was the whole enchilada. There is so much to see from top to bottom, I am glad I did the whole 9 day trip this time. I especially enjoyed... More

They are fine, although the last three days are not as interesting as the first five days. One option worth considering is selecting a trip with the option... More

This was one of the best vacations we have ever had. The crew was outstanding, courteous, experienced, knowledgeable, and mature. The twenty in our two boat trip all could have been their parents. From the first call of "hot coooffeee" in the morning to the dulcet tones of other campers rippling in their sleeping bags under the stars,Dewey, Ben, Kyndl... More

We did an 11-day rafting/hiking trip with CRATE--it was amazing! CRATE takes smaller groups than other companies, the food is great, an the equipment is well maintained. The trip and activities far exceeded our expectations. The best part however is the guides. They were professional, knowledgeable, and always safety conscious. The crew of Dewey, Ben, Kyndl and Jillian was awesome... More

I was guided on an 11-day rafting and hiking expedition on the Colorado River through then entire Grand Canyon. It was truly an exceptional experience with a professional company who truly cared about our encounter with both the river and canyon. I chose the motorized trip so I could focus on the hiking within one of the true wonders-of-the-world. For... More
