Was a brilliant and beautiful day. Can totally recommend doing this fantastic experience. Don our guide was great. Full of information and support. We got picked up from fremont street and he sent us a picture of the car and a picture of the spot to wait. So everything was so very easy. Best way to spend a day.

Gage was the best from pick up, the knowledgeable tour, and drop off... Gage was very educational and engaged with everyone on our tour! We're already planning our next trip. The water was so amazing and the views were beautiful!
11/10!!
Isobel_F, May 2023
Visiting all the way from Australia with my best friend and we both had the most wonderful time! We were lucky enough to score Gage as our host, he was incredibly accommodating and made the tour both fun and interesting as he was well educated on the area! The scenery is absolutely unreal, photos will never do this magnificent location justice. Very rarely leave reviews but was so very grateful to Gage for this divine experience, highly highly recommend going!
Best part of our annual friends getaway!
Heather_J, May 2023
This area has beautiful scenery and the water is calm and clear. Our tour guide, Kwame, was amazing! I highly recommend him as a guide. He was very paitient, fun, and shared the history of the river. This might have been our first time kayaking as a friends group, but it won’t be our last!
The real Vegas.

We had an amazing time on our very first kayaking trip! The weather was perfect and our guide Jordan was patient and knowledgeable about the area. This trip was a highlight during our four day visit to Vegas!
Excellent way to spend a day on the river!
Jonathan_H, Mar 2023
Jordan was great! Very informative, conscious of the group at all times while were kayaking and overall, a good guide. The distance was perfect and allowed for time to take amazing photos of the river, rock formations and the Emerald Cove. Well worth the cost and time commitment.
Spectacular day & great guide, Jeremy
