My party had a great experience on the River Dogz kayak tour. We were able to get picked up by our guide Preston from the Strip and shuttled to the destination. We had a great time exploring the river, did a quick hike and experienced the Emerald Cave. We were also able to see local wildlife. I would recommend this tour to all.

Preston was our guide and made the trip a blast..... And kept us all safe! We did the trip on 103° day Preston was our guide and made the trip a blast..... And kept us all safe! We did the trip on 103° day and we're concerned that it wasn't going to be a good day. It was actually great way to spend the day. He also had snacks, fruit and plenty of water to drink. Again, just a great day.

We had an amazing time kayaking the Colorado River, with River Dogz. Their tour guide, Michelle, was such a joy to spend the day with. She was very knowledgeable. Could not have been happier with River Dogz and our guide team today.
