Why These Dates Are Historically So Popular
Some Grand Canyon dates always stand out as the most popular, and typically fill up over a year in advance. Here’s why these trip dates sell out year after year:
- Perfect Weather: Depending on the time of year and a little luck, you can enjoy warm temperatures, blooming wildflowers, and cool nights in May and early June.
- Prime Water Levels: The flow of the Colorado River is Dam regulated throughout the year. May and June tend to have perfect flows for Colorado River trips through the Grand Canyon.
- Holiday Travel: Popular holidays like Memorial Day often align with highly coveted trip dates. These times are perfect for families and friends looking to share a one-of-a-kind adventure.
What This Means For Travelers and Adventurers:
This opens up a fantastic opportunity for those who might not have planned their trip years in advance. With space still available, 2025 could be the perfect time to book a Grand Canyon rafting adventure!
