Dandrick was so great! He did a lot of the prep work for us - bringing the boats down and back up the hill and accommodating our requests for single/double kayaks. He was very receptive to the group needs and pace and offered a lot of good and interesting information. He also offered to take photos to send to us after the tour.
The tour can be considered moderately strenuous but Dandrick does a good job with assessing the capabilities of the group and will make recommendations.
Overall, such a cool tour to see the canyon from a different perspective and got a decent workout in!

Beautiful tour of the canyon from the water! Anthony, our captain was very knowledgeable about the rock formations and really loves what he does. The meeting point was a little tricky to get to due to some construction and Katherine was very specific in her directions, even providing pictures of the parking area so we were assured we were in the right place.

A great trip!
The kayak and hiking are wonderful and in a really unique area. The water level in Lake Powell is shockingly low - like 100' low and to get to the water from the boat ramp itself is a short, but steep, walk. Our guide gave us ample opportunity to explore and told us how the canyon has changed in the past few years.

Beautiful location. More...
Beautiful location. More strenuous than the description suggested, with more rowing required. Water level was low and we got stuck at one point, and at another we hit a rock and my brother fell out of the raft. Guide was knowledgeable and skilled.
Viator did not communicate my request to Cliff Creek Outfitters that we wanted to be put in with another group. When I actually identified the tour provider and called them directly, I had lost the opportunity to cancel our private tour and paid for four people when there were only two of us. This was Viator’s problem, not the operators of the activity and I am less than pleased about it. If you have less than four people, call Cliff Creek Outfitters directly to schedule.

Antelope Excursion
Vince was an incredible tour guide with deep knowledge of the canyon, the river, and its history. Since our group was small, we got plenty of personal attention, tons of interesting information, and lots of time to explore the beautiful scenery at our own pace.
He also shared great recommendations for things to do in Page—The Birdhouse was a standout! Overall, this was an amazing experience, and we made memories that will last a lifetime. I highly recommend this tour!

Josh was the best!
Beautiful, peaceful, serene. Crystal clear water with a glassy surface amidst towering sheer cliffs. The cave itself is really cool, but somewhat small. However, the entire journey is beautiful. A fantastic way to get in nature, get away from the city, and move your body.
Our guide, Josh, was exceedingly friendly, patient, and knowledgeable. He was very attentive to the group and helped anyone who needed it.
The equipment was very nice.

Highly recommend! Would do it again! Also, get the food, is delicious!
Went on the guided tour with Emmett (spelling?) as our guide. Our guide was very knowledgeable and confident and gave us a sense of ease. The sights were gorgeous and the water was nice. Would highly recommend getting food after the kayaking trip because the food is great, and competitively and fairly priced. I think you should go with more people on a guided tour because honestly, the more the merrier but it wasn’t bad with the little group we had. Would definitely do it again!

Relaxing cruise around the island.
This was a nice relaxing cruise that goes around the island and under London Bridge. Well stocked bar on board and a decent selection of draft beers. The cruise is about an hour and takes you past the many small lighthouses that mark the boundaries of the island. The sunset cruise is a nice experience before dinner or a night out.

Wonderful raft trip
Kris was our guide and she did an AMAZING job showing us every nook and cranny of the canyon, pointing out wildlife, telling entertaining stories, and talking about the science behind each feature of the area. We had an amazing time learning and experiencing Glen Canyon and Horseshoe bend with a stop at Petroglyph beach. Thank you, Kris!

Great workout
The drive down was easy. There’s a $25 fee because Willow Beach is a National Recreational area. Parking is easy and the meeting point is easy to find. Have breakfast and coffee before getting there because there’s not much. The tour provides some great snacks. Ryan was kind enough to give us some snacks before the trip. It’s 2 miles down the river to get to the Emerald Caves and 2 miles back. We had a break on one of the beaches but it was still a hard trek. Ryan was a great guide. Loved his dad jokes. The emerald caves were very cool. We didn’t get to stay in for very long because there were a lot of people waiting to go in. Overall a great experience. Nature is beautiful.

Amazing!
We’ve lived in Camp Verde for almost 30 years and have just had the opportunity to kayak the Verde with this fun company. Our guide/bus driver John, was born and raised here and is knowledgeable and so funny.
He got all of us in our kayaks and said if you don’t return in three days, I’ll come looking for you.
The best part is you can travel at your own pace. Take an hour or take three. Totally up to you.
Definitely recommend this kayak tour!

Solo Travel
It’s a nice & easy rapid to follow. Seth, my tour guide is so nice & very patient with me. He makes sure that I am comfortable & safe all the way. We saw few hummingbirds, otter, yellow bird….dont know the exact name, also saw a blue Heron. Over all, my experience as a 1st time kayaker it was pretty great! Will definitely do it again.
