Our guide Preston was great. We really enjoyed the Emerald cave trip. Would love to do the 12 mile downstream trip.

We decided last-minute to do a Kayaking trip our last day in town and could not have made a better decision. The trip with River Dogz was one of our favorite parts of the week. It was a windy day but Michelle and team took great care of us and made it an adventure. It was a small enough group where we got a lot of attention but also had time to just be on our own and enjoy the paddle. Communications before were fantastic and super helpful, and they were flexible when the weather became iffy. Altogether a really wonderful experience.
