Such an fabulous trip! Michelle was an amazing tour guide! I had never kayaked before but her instruction and tips made it so easy. She's so personable and funny, sharing lots of interesting insights into the region's history, topography and wildlife. We saw some local desert big horn sheep on the hillside. Very cool watching them navigate the steep, rocky terrain. The water is so clear and gorgeous and of course, the highlight of the trip: Emerald Cove. More beautiful in person and the perfect cherry on top of a perfect day. A total must do if you visit Vegas. Perfect way to spend a hot September day.Michelle took great care of us too. Watched us to make sure we were staying hydrated, didn't let anyone fall behind, took so many wonderful photos of all of us so we could just experience the river and she was hugely encouraging and fun to be on the water with! She has so many great stories too. I loved every minute and will be returning in a couple of months. Thank you, Michelle! The whole day was just perfection!

Wonderful day! The whole adventure was very smooth. Pick up was punctual, Preston had great knowledge of the areas we drove through to get to Willow beach. His tips for handling the kayak were brilliant. Not a blister in sight. Would highly recommend

I can’t say enough about how much I LOVED my River Dogz experience! Shout out to Michelle who provided fun, laughter, history, training, and all around great vibes! This was a memorable experience that I will hold close to my heart. I’ll definitely be back to do this experience again!

First off, Julia our guide was absolutely amazing. She was so helpful and patient with me as it was my first time kayaking. I will say it's a slightly ambitious first time trip and it depends on the person but I'm living proof it is doable. Hindsight, for myself, I wish I'd had done some shorter trips or something before this trip. The views are amazing and beautiful. It's a great way to experience the beauty of the desert and something and to get off and away from the strip. I highly recommend River Dogs and Colorado River Emerald cave experience. It might just be a must do for us when we come out to Vegas.
