We got super lucky and it was a beautiful, cloudless and calm day to visit the river, Preston was knowledgeable and personable, and while no one in our group needed coaching was clearly familiar with tips and tricks to help people kyak and have a great time. Definitely recommend if you need a break from Vegas to see some actual nature

Not on purpose, we were pretty much as difficult as possible. We were late parked wrong wore the wrong shoes left keys in vest had to come back make them dig for them. Despite all this, we were treated AWESOMELY! I dont know the girls name but she had long black hair she take care of us intensely even tho we were kinda frazzled! Will be back!

Ryan was a great guide! He did a fantastic job interacting with each of us in the group and ensuring that we stayed together. Ryan shared interesting facts about the wildlife, flora, and history. He also has endless recommendations for places to eat after a long day of paddling!
