A 12 mile stretch of canyon that essentially begins at the base of historical Hoover Dam is the backdrop for the relaxing float trip. Along the way they encounter a wide variety of desert vegetation, wildlife, history and fun.
Guests arrive by their own transportation and shuttles which service Las Vegas hotels.
The Depot serves as the check-in post where visitors pick up their lunches and will eventually board the buses that transport them down to the river. The ride to the launch point provides visitors with a brief look at Boulder City as well as some Boulder City and Hoover Dam history. The final descent to the launch point is a limited access road that will eventually deliver guests to the Colorado River where they will receive one of the most breathtaking views of the majestic Hoover Dam as they board the pontoon style rafts and begin their journey. The rafts which are motorized hold up to 40 passengers. As the pilots set out on the journey, guests are encouraged to be on the lookout for Desert Bighorn Sheep, a fairly common yet very amazing sight to behold as these creatures move along the precariously steep cliffs in the canyon.
