I was on the 10 Day Motorized Raft trip in the Grand Canyon. The river guides were extraordinarily knowledgeable of the river and took every effort to make it a safe and enjoyable trip for each and everyone.
AZRA was extremely well organized. They have learned over the years how to do this right! I was impressed how they provided good meals for everyone, including those with dietary restrictions.
The average age in our group was 67. You will be able to participate in more hikes if you are in good physical condition. If you already hike a lot, you will be OK. You need good balance to scramble over boulders. I think the StairMaster would be the best exercise and regular hiking.
Using the list that AZRA provided, I over packed. It is possible to wear the same clothes everyday, however revolting that may be. But you do need to be prepared to be hot/cold, and wet/dry in every combination. Sometime you want to be dry to stay warm; sometimes you want to be wet to cool off. Sometimes you want cotton; sometimes synthetic. Bring extras of things you might lose: hats, sunglasses. - via
