What an awesome experience! We were looking for a nature cleanse midway through our Vegas vacation and we couldn't have asked for anything better. Preston made everything from the pickup at the hotel to the drive to the beach launch to the kayaking and even the hiking amazing. We had a fabulous time on the river and will definitely book an experience with River Dogz again!

Highly recommend! Fun day kayaking on the Colorado, suitable for all skill levels. Our guide was great, gave some great history and spotted a bunch of wildlife. If you are looking for something a little different while visiting Las Vegas, I highly recommend giving this a try!

Had just the best time with our guide Ryan. Hands down one of the best things we did on our vacation. Beautiful scenery and super knowledgeable tour with top notch dad jokes to keep us laughing. If you have the chance to do this kayak tour you won’t regret it. Amazing day on the water. Thank you Ryan for the memories we created!!

Booked this tour for me and my girlfriend on via tour. They had clear instructions and communications. We even ran a little late and they were very accommodating to put us on a later tour. Our tour guide Ryan was awesome and had a great personality. I would definitely bring my whole family the next time we come.
