I did this tour in June of 2022 (the list didn't allow me to select that date) and it was way better than I'd imagine. The van ride itself wasn't too lengthy from the strip and our guide was entertaining and informative. If you've ever dreamt of being in two places at once you can be (Arizona and Nevada). It was a hot 35 degrees Celsius that day but the river water and breeze made it comfortable (pack sunscreen, hat and sunglasses). My best friend and I wanted to do something we hadn't tried before in Vegas and this was just what we needed. It was relaxing and enjoyable but also got a little exercise in paddling. I would recommend and would even try again.

We had such a great time! We were lucky to have a really friendly group of strangers together and that only made the experience even better. Preston was wealth of knowledge and such a fun guide. So far, this has been my favorite experience on this vacation - five out of five - will do again!

Epic day on the Colorado River. We have been telling all our friends that they need to book this trip. Great communication before the trip. Our guide, Michelle was awesome - very knowledgeable and fun. We were looking at the 4 mile trip and then learned about the 12. I was a little concerned about the distance but we are an active group and the guides said we would be fine and we were. Loved all the stops along the way - natural sauna, 2 hot springs, caves, beaches, coves and canyons. Weather was great 95-100 mid-day. Water is cold but the drips from the paddles felt great. Make sure to bring wide brimmed hats, rash guards and towel to cover legs as it is a lot of time in the sun but if you bring the right gear you can stay protected and prevent getting sun burned. It was a 4.5 hour drive to Boulder City from Scottsdale so drove up the night before, stayed at the Best Western, kayaked 8-4 and were back home by 9:30pm. We did pay $50 to have our car shuttles to Willow beach to save an hour of drive time. Stop at Mister D’s in Kingman for 50’s style milkshake or float on the way home.

Today for my sister and my 40th birthday we spent an amazing day on the Colorado river Kayaking and exploring the emerald cove. From the start when we booked the activity the communication was precise and to the point for peace of mind. Was met by Bianca jumped in the mini bus and we set off. From the tour itself to the experience and everything in between was amazing and would definitely do it again if I ever returned to Vegas. Thank you Bianca and Riverdogz for a brilliant day.

Preston was an awesome guide. It was quite a placid tour. I could have stayed longer. A great escape from the sensory overload of Vegas.
