Gabby is the best!! My first experience with River Dogz, had the best time. From pick up to drop off, never a dull moment.

Fantastic time from the minute we stepped into the van to the minute the very last second at drop off. Our guide, Gaby had phenomenal knowledge of Vegas and Arizona, her positive energy was on blast the whole time. All of the River Dogz crew were very personable. I spoke with 3 other tour guides they too had awesome personalities. I found out one of the guides was best friends to a cousin of mine! Small world! River Dogz, y'all are doing it right. Picked is up and drove us back to Vegas, I would have loved to have made it an all day event with a stop at Hoover Dam and a walk through historic Boulder City. My suggestion when booking, is to block out the whole day. There is a lot to learn and see! River Dogz out, OOWW OOWW!

Michelle was a wonderful tour guide on our Emerald Cove Kayaking tour. She was informative, friendly and best of all, she kept me safe at all times! I’m a newbie at kayaking and she made me feel safe at all times.

Ryan and the crew really made this experience fantastic! A great way to take in the Colorado River and the beautiful mountains. He even took personalized photos and sent them to us after the experience! If you're looking for an adventure that's not the usual hustle of the LV Strip this is the one to do!
