great place - We took 2 kayaks out ourselves. We saw beautiful scenery and 2 big horn sheep. We did miss the history that a tour would offer. Very pretty place.

Wonderful company! - I would recommend this company to anyone! Wonderful, quick, and helpful service that made for a perfect day. If you are experienced in Kayaking and want alone time—the rental only option is fairly priced and makes for a great day of adventuring without the crowds. If you are new to kayaking, I have no doubts that this company would ensure your comfortability on a group tour!

Emerald Cove Adventure - Emerald Cove itself was a bit of a let down, but the kayaking to and from the Cove was awesome, as was the rental service👍

Worth every penny for the experience. - The booking portion was super easy. The company stayed in touch with us regularly letting us know what was going on as we approached the date of our trip. Very helpful and just keeps you at ease that all is set up and ready to go.
We booked this tour without any experience kayaking which made us a little nervous. We drove ourselves to the location so that we could stop and see other places in the area. When we arrived the tour guide was already there and ready. Our guides name was Xander, he was very nice and gave us the historical information of the place which was very interesting. He was patient and super knowledgeable. He even played a flute when we arrived to the cave which made the moment even more memorable. It was such a great experience we all loved it and would definitely come back and do it again with the same company.

Wonderful...just book it! - We had such a great time with Robby and Casey! We really enjoyed the knowledge Robby had with the area and the fun facts and "dad" jokes on the car ride and also on the river. They both did an awesome job wrangling everyone up and down the river. I would definitely book this trip again and we've spoken HIGHLY of both the guides and the tour to everyone we've talked to!

Emerald “cave” experience - The kayak rental company was great and the trip to the cave and back was amazing. Now I’ve visited caves before and that’s was not a cave, more of a ten foot hole in side of the river
