Are there significant differences between this program and the one titled "Grand Canyon Off the Beaten Path: A Family Adventure"?

Hi Dolores, we have not had any serious accidents. The rafting company requires that we complete the waivers. We are mindful of the safety concerns on this and all of our programs. You and your granddaughter will make some great memories together on this program.

This will be our second RS program. We went to Yellowstone last year and it was great. Again, we will be taking our two oldest grandsons, Grant (11) and Micah (9), who are cousins. They live in the DC area and we live in Houston. We'll be driving in from Las Vegas and look forward to meeting all fellow travelers. Jim & Gwen Montano
