  • The Salt River, AZ - Arizona's hidden springtime treasure is buried deep in the Sonoran Desert. With easy accessibility from Phoenix and Tucson, the Salt River is a wonderful river for any skill level. Our most popular trips are a full day and include a sumptuous hot fajita lunch. Those familiar with overnight rafting in the West agree the Salt can't be surpassed for whitewater, beaches, canyon scenery and stunning springtime wildflowers. Giant saguaro cactus are a complement that makes an experience here unlike any other rafting trip in the world.
