This was a fun day trip. The whole thing lasted from about 7am to 3pm between transport and the kayaking itself. The guides were friendly and knowledgeable. The transport took about 30ish minutes from the Strip to the shop, where a trailer with the boats was hitched up and then another 30ish minutes to the launch site. The kayaking took about 2.5-3 hours. They had PLENTY of water available but relatively few snacks. Dry bags (large) are available. Even though it got to 115F (!?!) that day, the water was cold and the kayaking was relatively cool. Definitely wear and bring sunscreen and / or coverings and a hat. You're in the sun basically the whole time. The emerald cave itself is underwhelming, but the experience overall was good. And suitable for any level of kayaker.

Hi Thomas, Thanks for the nice review! We value your comments and pledge to have more snacks on hand! Mother Nature is in charge of the Emerald Cave and some days it is much more brilliant than others, but we are glad your enjoyed yourself. We hope to see back again soon.

This was my first time Kayaking and the tour was nothing short of amazing. The views were a plus within itself.
