Amazing experience - Johnny was our guide and we had an absolute amazing time. I was nervous about taking this trip in Feb. Thinking we would be too cold and that it would be too hard. But it was an absolute amazing experience. I took my very active mom for her 60th birthday. Johnny helped her scale waterfalls to reach the hot springs. He was so accommodating. Arizona hot spring has to have been my favorite. My only suggestion is to look up the different type of birds in the area before you go because you see so much wildlife. It was so peaceful on the river. I never thought an experience like this would be so close to Vegas. This experience was worth every penny and 100% was a highlight of our adventure trip

A must do when visiting Las Vegas!! - My husband and I agree, this was the highlight of our trip to Las Vegas. EJ was our guide and he went above and beyond! He is willing to customize your tour based on your likes and abilities, but we just left the tour trip in his very capable hands. I was happy to hand my phone over to him as he was our photographer as well! The next time we’re in Vegas, I have no doubt we’ll return for more fun with Adventure Child!

Beat the Vegas Heat with a Kayak Adventure on the Colorado River! - My friends and I recently embarked on an incredible all-day kayaking adventure down the Colorado River, just outside of Las Vegas. It was the perfect way to escape the desert heat and experience the stunning natural beauty of the area. The highlight of the trip was definitely stopping at several hot springs along the way. Taking a dip in the river was a refreshing break, and the scenery surrounding them was breathtaking. Our guide, Shawn, was fantastic. He kept the mood light and entertaining throughout the day and even documented the entire adventure with tons of fun pictures of our group. Thanks to Shawn, we have lasting memories of this amazing experience. If you're looking for a way to add some adventure and nature to your Las Vegas vacation, I highly recommend this kayaking trip! It's a perfect way to escape the crowds and see a different side of Nevada.

Hoover dam to Willow beach! - I recently went on a kayak tour and had an absolutely incredible experience! Our host was fantastic— (LENNY) knowledgeable, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. The tour took us to stunning hot springs and beautiful waterfalls that I never would have discovered on my own. The timing of the trip was perfect, allowing us to enjoy each spot to the fullest with no crowds. I couldn't have asked for a better adventure and highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for a unique and memorable experience. Five stars all the way
