What parents say
"We are home and adjusted after what can only be called a trip of a lifetime and the highlight was this Kayak trip launching from the Hoover Dam with Faith as our tour guide. Our family of 4, 2 teens and 2 over 50, wanted an adventure and got one. From the amazing feeling of being on the Colorado River and sitting in a kayak while the Hoover Dam soars above you, to the amazing hot springs, the wildlife and the challenge. It was 12 miles down river and on our trip, the wind was not our friend. But Faith made it amazing. She is not only knowledgeable of everything along the river but gave us tips"

"Great outfitters and great trip. The three hour emerald cave tour was just right for our youngster. It was good to also get a bit of optional trail walking to get off the river for a stretch and some views. Equipment was in excellent shape, airtight dry containers, good paddles, and stable boats with the lovely option of a rudder that really made it easy to paddle around even on a windy day and with an inexperienced copilot in a tandem kayak. Our guides were above all excellent. Aaron had a good understanding of local plant and animal life and shared that with us as well as some of the history"

"We had a great time. We were in Vegas for business and decided to add a couple of days for some adventure. They were able to pick us up so we didn’t have to rent a car. It was a fun relaxing day on the water with great weather. a surprisingly good box lunch that they provided as part of the booking. They provided us with lots of water and snacks as well. Our tour Guide Jaden was perfect for the job, friendly informative, but not overbearing."
