The kayak trip to Emerald Cave was amazing! It was the highlight of my Vegas trip! Preston was very friendly and knowledgeable. He helped our group of four make it a more fun and interesting experience. I highly recommend River Dogz Kayak Tours to anyone looking for some outdoor fun while in Vegas.

Great time, well worth the $$. If you want a break from the Strip, this is the perfect opportunity. My wife isn’t a kayaker, and we were able to do this in a tandem kayak without any problems. Our tour guide was excellent!!! Highly recommended!!

We had such a great experience with River Dogs on our Emerald Cave tour while visiting Las Vegas! Everything was well organized and punctual, and our guides were incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating. They even took pictures for us along the way! Snacks and unlimited water were provided, which was a nice touch. The entire experience was reasonably priced and absolutely worth the money. What really stood out was how they went above and beyond to mail my friend's stickers back to her after she accidentally left them on the bus. Such thoughtful customer service! Highly recommend River Dogs to anyone visiting the area!
