5.00This experience was great. We did the self-drive option from Las Vegas, and it was a scenic, short-feeling drive! Robbie, or tour leader was great. He provided excellent info about how to navigate the kayak (we had no previous experience), and the sweeping views were just majestic. Now, the "Emerald Cave" midway point of the tour was actually kinda anti-climactic (or maybe it was just cloudy overcast when we went?). Not negative by any means, just a smidge "underwhelming" compared to how awesome simply kayaking on the river was. 10/10 would recommend and definitely plan on doing this tour each time I come to Vegas. NOTE: Bring a water bag for your electronics! Water definitely splashes into the kayak, and my phone got some water on the inside. But it's recovering nicely.
Amazing views, nice tour guide

5.00We had the best time on our Kayak tour with Justin. He really made our day good fun and was very informative. It felt like we were hanging out with a friend. We would highly recommend this tour. Snacks and water were provided. I would recommend some water shoes or crocs that you don’t mind getting wet but you don’t necessarily need them as you can go without shoes. Don’t forget your sun cream. You won’t be disappointed booking this trip.
Great escape in nature from Las Vegas

5.00We took our 20 year old son on the three hour Emerald Cave kayak cruise. Our guide, Jayden was very informative and friendly. The trip was quite easy, calm waters. Clear instructions and interesting facts about various plants and the history of the area. The cave itself was very small, don’t expect to be going through a cave, it’s more like a cove. The water is clear and stunningly green. We had a lovely day out and would recommend.
Pretty area to kayak

5.00Very friendly and accommodating provider. Best to time trip for a 11 or 12 tour as the "cave" emerald effect is all about the suns angle being exactly right to cause reflections of the naturally green riverwater in this small hollow.
It’s definitely worth...

5.00It’s definitely worth going once. This time of year is prob best as you have to wait to get into the small cove. During high usage time the wait could be quite long but at least you could swim in warmer weather. Our guide always quite knowledgeable and friendly. The cove itself is cool but as said- small. We had a good time
