It was a nice leisurely kayak down the river. We would have liked to go faster, but it was still enjoyable. The guide shared lots of information about the history of the area. Would recommend. Looking forward to doing the all day tour another time.

One of the best choices I ever took for doing excursions or water sports. I can't describe enough how much I enjoyed this tour. I had the most cool and unforgettable water splash ever in the Colorado river. Our guide Michelle was so friendly, professional and we learnt a lot from her about the basics of Kayaking. It was so relaxing and I enjoyed the nature a lot. This is a must to do tour to be done while you are in Vegas. Thank you so much River Dogz!

This was my first time kayaking, and it was a great experience. We received basic instruction before beginning. The Emeryld Cave tour had great sights. They provided water and snacks. Our tour guide took group and individual photos of us and sent them to us afterwards.

What a great experience this kayak tour was. Griff was the best! If you do book make sure you ask for him. It was a beautiful Saturday morning in October. We were one of the lucky ones to see the dessert trifecta ( bald eagle, rattle snake, and big horn sheep).

We had a great time! So peaceful and fun, we saw tons of wildlife and the green water was truly beautiful. Preston was so knowledgeable about the area and animals. Highly recommend!
