Exciting, not rushed,fun, great pics - Great weather, chill guide Adam, excellent 4 mile kayak trip, 1st time was lots of fun! The marina was reasonably priced, the guide gave us some history on area and plants and wildlife as well.

Amazing experience - It was amazing! My friend had a bit of trouble keeping up since it was her first time kayaking and our guide Haley was very accommodating and stayed behind with us. She gave my friend pointers and by the end, she was doing much better. It was a bit tough on her arms but totally manageable. Personally, I felt like kayaking to and from Emerald Cave was more fun than the actual cave which was definitely pretty but the Colorado river was beautiful and I would’ve gone on this tour even without going to the cave. I would highly recommend you take this tour with Haley.

Very fun, relaxing, very professional guides. - It was beautiful. We got to see a lot of wildlife. Eagles, sheep, lizards. We went on a very hot day but the water is cold so it felt great.

Americas number 1 kayak place... - The guides name was Tyler- none of us knew one another going out. Yet Tyler brought us all together and created a team. Tyler allowed us to have some alone with nature time- and do group things. Plus we saw eagles and mountain goats. The whole day was perfect...

Wonderful! - Wonderful outing! Adam and the entire Riverdogz team worked tirelessly to ensure all had a great experience. Regardless of kayaking experience all will enjoy this tour that showcases some of the spectacular views on and off the water. Adam even took and shared pictures of all participants that were wonderful. Would highly recommend.

Tandem kayak on the Colorado River to Emerald Cove - We had a fantastic day in a tandem kayak on the Colorado River with Adam, who was àn extremely pleasant guy, very helpful, knowledgeable and tended to the needs of everyone individually. We stopped for breaks, a small hike for photos, and swam in the cleanest, clearest river that I have ever seen. We saw bald eagles flying above and the Emerald Cove was a wonderful sight. Thanks again Adam, you were exceptional 😀👍

Great day with nature - the tour guide shared some great information with us in regards to the area and history. The ease of pickup, having the kayak available, great snacks and plenty of cold water, the hike to a great view, and getting back on time for our dinner reservation made the day memorable! The group picture and individual pics in the cave were a nice touch.

Fun kayaking day with amazing tour guide Preston - So glad we did this trip while visiting Vegas! Preston was amazing, he made the trip so fun and was so knowledgeable about the river. We had a beautiful day on the river even in 100+ degree heat. Would absolutely recommend this trip and Preston as a tour guide.
