I did a lot of research on tour companies and I am so glad I came across River Dogz! Griff, our guide, was so chill and personable. It was a cherry on top to crack jokes while on the river. He keeps it real! 11/10 recommend.

Great experience. The guides were very knowledgeable and friendly. Plenty of snacks and they went at the group's pace so no one was exhausted. Everyone had a great time.

We loved our kayak tour with River Dogz! Our guide, Preston, was awesome! So knowledgeable, fun, and friendly. He gave us clear and easy tips, explained everything so well, and went above and beyond our expectations with his descriptions of our beautiful surroundings. I would absolutely do this trip again!

Amazing experience! We had Preston as our guide and this really enhanced the day. It's one thing to paddle down the river and see the Emerald Cave, but it really makes the trip an experience to have a guide who is both informative and entertaining.We were worried as a family that it might be a long paddle, but we had no issues at all, even in record March heat. The pace is leisurely and we stopped for photos, snacks and water. (Your guide is loaded up with food and snacks!). The next time we are out this way, we'll definitely look at the full day experience.

Yes you get a little history education as well while kayaking. This was my First time in my life to kayak and Griffin made me feel very comfortable, always willing to help. I had THE BEST TIME in my life.10 out of 10 for sure!!!!!Go in the mornings FYI
