We had an amazing day. From pick up to drop off the day went perfect. If you are lucky enough to get Neil as your guide then you are in GREAT hands. Thank you Neil. I could not tell you which was better the emerald cave? The short hike or just the fun of Neil and the tour as a whole??

My 16 yo daughter and I have never stepped foot in a Kayak before this great trip of 4 miles up & down the emerald Colorado River in AZ! Sara our guide was so kind and knowledgeable about the entire trip.....how Hoover dam controls the water levels and a quick hike to see the man who lived alone from 1920-1935 and worked for the group who built the dam in 1934 measuring the water levels and sentiment for all those years, we also saw a fish hatchery too. The water was calm and gorgeous! She was very considerate of our safety with a few motor boats on the water and other large groups of kayak tours that day. I think this trip was perfect, our pick up was 7:30am on the strip and we got back around 1:30pm. We took our time and enjoyed all the scenery. Next time I will get my own Kayak, easier to steer, but since it was our first time, it made sense that we were in a double! Thanks again Sara for all your energy, enthusiasm and friendliness throughout our trip, you made it memorable 💗

We are delighted to hear you chose the Emeral Cove trip to try kayaking for the first time. What a perfect day to be on the water! Your description of your trip is spot on and we 100% agree that Sarra is a great guide. Hope to see you and your daughter again soon! Maybe for our trip that launches at the dam!

We visited from Oregon where there is more rivers to see than you can choose from, but we were still in awe of how much beauty this trip provided. The water was perfect and the sites were gorgeous! We are so glad we made time for this tour. Our guide Neil was awesome as well! He was so laid back and made us feel like we were with a friend rather than a stranger. My husband really wanted to see some wildlife and he took the time to show us all the history the Colorado river had to offer. If we ever come back to Vegas we are definitely taking the full day trip! -Arika & Espiridon
