We spent a lovely day paddling on the Colorado River. The group was small. Luke was a great guide! He was very knowledgeable about the river and its history.

Jeremy was a great, friendly, very knowledgeable host! This was a welcome contrast to the lights and traffic of Vegas. River Dogz communicated all information we needed to arrive safely, made sure we were comfortable, and lead a relaxing 3 hour trip down the Colorado River.Highly recommendLinda

We rented several kayaks and did a self tour to the Emerald Cave, and I wanted to say how amazingly nice this company treated us. The kayaks and equipment were in great condition. Every staff member was friendly and helpful. I’d definitely rent from them again!

River Dogz was fabulous to work with! They were experienced and gave good kayaking tips to those who needed it. They were prepared and professional. They even took pics and texted them after the trip. We did a quick half day trip kayaking the Colorado. We highly recommend them!
