Beautiful adventure! - Beautiful smooth kayak adventure. Our guide Jake provided an educational experience detailing flora/ fauna and some history. He was a pleasure to chat with and took a lot of pictures of us along the way. This was an incredible way to spend an evening on the Colorado River.

Sunset glow - We had a wonderful time in Emerald Cave guided tour at sunset. Our guide, Jared made us all feel at ease. He never rushed us We took our time going to Emerald Cave, he was a wonderful photographer. He also taught a lot of the history and geology of the place. We saw lots of birds. I would definitely come back again and would recommend it to my friends.

Great joy ride on the Colorado River - Jared was fun and informative on the tour that my wife and I took. The tour took about four hours talking about birds, plants, rocks, and the history of “Bob’s House”. We would highly recommend this tour. It was nice and easy and beautiful.

An absolutely Amazing Experience - It was an absolutely incredible experience in every way, our guide Jared was amazing, shares great info, stories, was funny, helpful and made me feel comfortable as it was my first time kayaking. My chosen family , my son all were just absolutely blown away by the experience, and Jared. We can't recommend him enough and we can't wait until the next time we are back in Las Vegas to do it again. We would have given 10 stars if possible.

Gorgeous sunset & moon! - This Kayak adventure was a great experience! From my first email with questions until the end of the tour, it was seamless. Our guide, Jared, was knowledgeable about the river, rocks, flora, and history of the area. He provided us with drinks, snacks, band aids, great photographs & was prepared with anything we needed. The tour itself was filled with beautiful views & the sunset & moon were amazing! We highly recommend this tour!!!
