What To Expect

Enjoy the full day raft trip with our riverside grilled lunch as well as the luxury and convenience of car camping at our riverside base camp just 3 miles off Hwy 60 at Second Campground. Open to the public much like a state park you can choose to camp before or after your raft trip at this beautiful spot in the Salt River Canyon. We will build you a campfire to relax around and cook a fantastic dinner and breakfast as only our multi-talented guides can do. There is plenty of time to fish or hike and to enjoy the stars. Come and discover if “roughing it” is for you! Rental camping gear is available and dietary concerns met upon request. Choose one of two options: raft and camp that night or camp and raft the next day.

Q: Will I get seasick on Raft & Camp?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023

Sorting, ranking, and search results

Activity name

Cool Destinations wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That's why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.

On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You'll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Cool Destinations over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
