About Ceiba Adventures
Ceiba Adventures is a Southwest river outfitting company based in Flagstaff that has been supporting private Grand Canyon rafting expeditions since 2005. The company originally launched in 1985 running guided trips to Maya ruins in southern Mexico before expanding into Colorado River logistics, bringing decades of expedition management experience to the Grand Canyon outfitting space.
Ceiba provides full-service outfitting for permit holders running their own non-commercial river trips through the Grand Canyon. Their inventory includes 14-, 16-, and 18-foot rafts, motorboats, stand-up paddleboards, kayaks, portable toilets, complete kitchen systems, and all the hardware and rigging needed for a multi-week canyon expedition. They also handle food procurement, custom menu planning, and round-trip shuttle transportation between Flagstaff and the put-in and take-out points.
What distinguishes Ceiba is their background in international expedition logistics and their hands-on approach to trip planning. The team walks trip leaders through every detail — from rigging configurations to meal prep timelines — ensuring that even first-time private permit holders feel prepared for one of the most iconic river journeys in the world.
