Definitely a must do while visitin Nevada! Tyler was beyond amazin and very professional. I had never kayaked before but after he showed everybody the basics, it was like we all had done it before. The views were amazing both on the river and when we stopped at the gaugers house. We were also fortunate to see a big horn sheep! I would HIGHLY recommend Tyler and River Dogz everyday of the week!

Amazing trip on the river with Preston as our guide! My husband and I kayak at home regularly and really enjoyed the opportunity to be on the Colorado river and visit the emerald cave. A fantastic experience and a great way to escape the city.

Isn't the Colorado River amazing?! So true, a great way to get away from the strip for a bit. Thanks for joining us!

Ryan was a great guide, friendly and experienced. Wear A LOT of sunscreen, not much shade. Not a cloud in the sky and since we kayaked from 11:30-3, it was hot despite being March. Water was beautiful and clear. Views were gorgeous, although the actual cave was underwhelming. Overall very glad we went!
