This is a full-day break from the madness of Las Vegas that requires absolutely no physical exertion on your part. You get to see a perspective of the Hoover Dam and Black canyon that few others get to see. The canyon is really spectacular and makes not just a relaxing, but interesting day trip too. Our guide, Brian, was amusing, interesting and knowledgeable. The boat was big enough for everyone to space out and relax and we made several stops on sandy beaches to paddle in the chilly river or just sit in the shade and eat the tasty lunch that they provide. We even got to see a bald eagle in the canyon!
