https://www.advantagegrandcanyon.com/ Oar rafts and dory boats consist of a guide rowing from the center of the raft and up to 4 passengers, 2 in front and 2 in back. During calmer waters, and at the discretion of your guide, you may be able to grab the oars and sample what it feels like to row down the mighty Colorado . Paddle rafts consist of 6-8 paddlers plus a guide, and all passengers are required to assist in propelling the boat down river with a single paddle. These All-Paddle trips are recommended for those with previous multi-day paddle experience as they can be taxing for the inexperienced passenger. Hybrid trips combine the opportunity to experience both the excitement of a paddle raft and also relax in oar rafts as passengers rotate between them, while traveling down river.
