What a great day! We drove to Willow Beach for the half day kayak tour and had a nice small group of people in our kayaking group. Our guide, Michelle, was exceptional. She gave us so much useful and helpful information and she really added to the whole experience. Going above and beyond to take photos of us and got to know each of us individually. She was educational and fun! The river trip was gorgeous, as was the cave. So glad we chose River Dogz. They’re a friendly and professional group. Would definitely highly recommend .

5 Stars all across the board!! From communications regarding your booking to the pick-up/drop off, River Dogz was top notch!! Our tour guide was Michelle and she was amazing! Very knowledgeable of the land and very fun to hangout with! She even took pics of our group to capture moments that we couldn't while kayaking!! Whenever we're back in Vegas, we will be booking this excursion again!! Tell a friend to tell a friend, River Dogz are the tour to book in Vegas! They also provided water, snacks, (healthy ones and regular chips, etc)! They thought of everything!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
