Float the smooth waters of the Colorado River, see Glen Canyon Dam, and enjoy lunch beside ancient petroglyphs on an 11-hour day trip.

About this tour

Trade the desert road for a day on the water with a Flagstaff Colorado River float trip. Settle into a smooth-water journey and take in the striking scenery as the river carries you through the Glen Canyon area.

Your day includes Flagstaff hotel pickup, a professional guide, bottled water, and lunch. Along the way, pause on a broad sandy beach for lunch beside a wall of ancient petroglyphs, then enjoy a close-up view of Glen Canyon Dam. Climate-controlled vans make the drive more comfortable, while the float offers a relaxed way to experience the landscape.

The trip lasts about 11 hours. Bring a towel and, in spring or fall, extra layers. Moderate fitness is recommended; this outing is not recommended for pregnant travelers or those with poor cardiovascular health. Book your Flagstaff Colorado River float trip for a full day of river scenery, history, and fresh air.

How this score is calculated

This score is based on one provider. Viator rates it 4.70 from 23 reviews. We place that rating among all Viator ratings and weight it by its review count. If the tour is found on another provider later, both ratings are combined.

How the score works and rating distribution in Flagstaff
  • Each provider rating is turned into a percentile: the share of that provider's ratings it beats, weighted by review counts.
  • Listings on different providers are combined in proportion to their review counts.
  • Tours with few reviews are pulled toward the average until more reviews come in, so a handful of perfect reviews can't top the list.
  • The result is shown from 0 to 10: this tour scores 6.8.
