Grand Canyon Rafting Tour Descriptions

Virtual Marble Canyon Tour (The tour seen above)

This is part two of the Grand Canyon Flyover Tour series and it begins as we are flying over Horshshoe bend

towards Marble Canyon. We have just flown from Glen Canyon Dam in the previous tour and are about to

descend to fly low over the Colorado River. We begin the descent as we fly past Lee's Ferry, a well know starting

point for many Colorado River rafting tours that go as far as Lake Mead and the Hoover Dam. We will eventually

be following low over the rapids traversed by Colorado River rafting tours.
