Experience Horseshoe Bend Like Never Before

Check in at our River Headquarters in Page. Enjoy a one-hour drive through the Colorado Plateau. Upon arrival walk to your river raft to meet your friendly guide who will help you aboard our roomy 37-foot raft. Then sit back and relax as you take in the sights and stories of the Colorado River in Glen Canyon including the rich natural and human history of the region. You’ll make a beach stop, where you can take a short hike to see a petroglyph panel and even take a quick dip in the cool river. Back aboard your river raft, you’ll float through iconic Horseshoe Bend. Look for rainbow trout in the crystal-clear water, dozens of birds nesting on the banks of the river and possibly a herd of big horn sheep along the way. Your raft trip ends at historic Lees Ferry, where you’ll board our buses for the ride back to River Headquarters.

Our Horseshoe Bend Rafting Trips are completely family friendly. They’re available for ages four and up. We even provide the chilled water and Gatorade. Book your spot now!

Antelope Canyon Lake Powell Boat Tour

So, you’ve toured Antelope Canyon, or one of the other slot canyons in its extended family , and are ready to tick this item off your Page, Arizona to-do list. Sorry, but you’ve only touched the tip of the proverbial iceberg! Antelope Canyon is over 10 miles long. It is one of many tributaries of the Colorado River, and one of over 90 fjord-like side canyons that make Lake Powell one of America’s top boating destinations. In order to appreciate Antelope Canyon for its true complexity, you must see it from two very different perspectives: by land, and by boat.

On the Antelope Canyon Lake Powell Boat Tour , you’ll get an up-close and personal look at not only the waterside of Antelope Canyon, but the many man-made and natural wonders that make up the lower end of Lake Powell. Aboard a Lake Powell Resort and Marina tour boat, piloted by a Coast Guard Certified captain, you and your family will see:

  • Glen Canyon Dam
  • Navajo Sandstone formations
  • Sculpted canyon walls adorned in ancient desert varnish
  • Antelope Canyon’s waterside

You’ll travel 4 miles up Antelope Canyon off the main channel of Lake Powell, between canyon walls towering high above you, until the passage becomes so narrow, your boat can travel no further. No worries, though – your experienced captain will turn your vessel safely around, and get you back to Wahweap Marina with a boatload of great memories. Can you believe you did all that in just 90 minutes? Small wonder this is one of Lake Powell Resort and Marina’s most popular boat tours, so book your seat today!

Coffee, lemonade and water are provided on the tour boat. You are welcome to bring a reasonable amount of your own food or preferred beverages with you. A minimum of 15 passengers is required to guarantee operation of the tour.

Tour schedule:

April 1 – October 31 Depart at 10:30 am, 2:30 pm, or 4:15 pm

June 1 – August 15 Depart at 6:15 PM
