We enjoyed this trip very much for the beautiful scenery, the wildlife, and hot springs. Antonio was very knowledgeable and helpful. We also had a “guide in training “ who talked very fast and was sometimes difficult to understand . He didn’t seem to have his facts straight and was sometimes a bit annoying. He forgot to bring our snacks along, & by the time we got to lunch we were ready to pass out from hunger.

Hi Joan, Thank you for your honest review. We apologize wholeheartedly that you were not given any snacks, that should not happen! This is very good feedback for our trainee and our training team and we will include this information in our upcoming meeting. Hopefully you will give us another chance to come see us again in the future.

They never disappoint! Our guide Sarra was amazing, knowledgeable and super fun to be with! I took this trip 7 years ago and repeated it with my husband during a quick get away...I would do it again as soon as we can! Gorgeous scenery, hot springs, and delicious lunch! Such professionals, they have this down!!

wow! This is was a FABULOUS excursion! We have lived in Vegas for 25 years and had no idea about this hidden treasure! The 8 hour adventure included hot springs, beautiful caves, wildlife, and at times some difficult rowing due to the winds but it was well worth it! Gianni was THE BEST tour guide ever! He was so friendly, had a great knowledge of the canyon, and even threw in a few funny jokes! Our 16 year old daughter struggled in the wind and he didn't hesitate to tie her up to him to help her out! All while making it fun for her while motivating her to keep going! The lunch was SO good and I couldn't believe everyone finished off their HUGE sandwiches and my yummy salad! It was all well earned! It's said the winds change in september so you'll have a tailwind instead of a headwind but my husband and i would go back in a heart beat (the 16 year old would wait for the tailwind!). The year round water temp of 52 degrees makes the heat tolerable with multiple cold plunges and dips of the wrists and hats to keep us cool in the hot temp! We'll be back FOR SURE with the kids once there's a tail wind but you might find the 2 of us back before then! Thanks for making this effortless and magical! Since there's no motor boats allowed up the canyon mondays and sundays it made for the most peaceful day while we enjoyed all the river had to offer! Thank you for the FABULOUS day and thanks to Gianni for helping us enjoy every moment on the river!

YAY!!! We're so glad you had a fantastic time! We agree Gianni is great and your kind words are very much appreciated by him and us. We're also happy to hear that as a local, we've been able to introduce you to our backyard! We love for locals to discover what we have so close to us. We look forward to seeing you on the river again soon!
