I believe my guide was Griff and he was fantastic. Had been doing tours for 10 years and as a result was very knowledgeable and very personable. I highly recommend this company for their tours. I’d take them again in a minute.

The kayak tour was wonderful!!!Our guide Michelle went above and beyond all expectations. Super helpful and showed us breathtaking scenery. The Colorado river is amazing and all the information provided by Michele was invaluable. It is a tour I would do again today and suitable for any age as it is easy and enjoyable. Thank you River Dogs for a wonderful day!
