What are people saying about Las Vegas

Cyndy_P, Sep 2026

Just do it!!

What a great experience. Our driver, Iggy?, was super informative and passionate about his love of nature. Our guide, Kathleen, was so informative and it's obvious that she loves the area and her job. It was over 100° but we kept cool with lots of provided water, cool wet cloths, and optional dips in the river. The trip also included a yummy lunch in a take-home color bag. I highly recommend this trip.

Amazing experience

This experience was amazing. The beautiful landscape was wonderful to kayak through. Our tour guide Niko was amazing. She was fun, knowledgeable and truly loved what she does. She informed us about the environment, the animals, and how to get as much out of the experience. The tour group was prompt with pick up and drop off, they provided plenty of snacks- granola bars, crackers and water. I can’t wait to do it again!

Absolutely loved It!!!...

Absolutely loved It!!! Such a beautiful experience. I just wish I would have rented the kayak for a longer time. Just be prepared to wait about an hour to 1.5h to take a picture in the emerald cave but worth it. Also make sure to wear Sunglasses, a Hat, and plenty of sunscreen or long sleeves if you are sensitive.

Do It!

Las vegas paddle board company is stellar! This was my second time booking with them and renting kayaks for self guided tours. The five hour time allowance is ample for getting to the cove and back and stopping multiple times to sunbathe , and swim in between! They go above and beyond to get you rescheduled @ your convenience , if you are booked on a day that ends up having high wind. This river is absolutely gorgeous colors in perfectly clear all the way to the bottom , especially on the edges! Do not miss this one!

Amazing and beautiful hike!

What an absolutely amazing hike! I went with my husband and it was actually just us and our guide which was so nice because we got to go at our own pace and actually got to go an extra mile or so. It was a bit chilly out and our guide gave us coats and waters for the hike. The mountains and terrain were stunning and we got to take alot of great pictures. Afterwards he actually dropped us at our hotel which I thought was so nice! 10/10 recommend!

Emerald Cave Premium Kayak Tour with Lunch & Las Vegas Shuttle

Outstanding experience

We had the best experience on this expedition. The organisation was perfect, regular contact throughout, pickup on time, 2 great friendly and knowledgeable guides, Jeff and Emma made this our greatest experience. So friendly and patient, we had such a laugh, having never used a kayak before the instructions were clear, simple and the kayaks were brilliant, food was great, even went for a swim after lunch and as promised the river took our breathe away for the first few seconds but shortly after it was such a nice swim, we got back into the kayaks and wanted to swim again, would highly recommed this 🏊‍♂️. Followed by a casual row back we kind of started a massive water fight which im sorry but I definitely won 🤪 as we approached the shore where we started Jeff gave a great speech that really touches your heart and makes you understand that even with all the entainment available, a great trip through mother nature can bring you peace and sometimes thats all you need ❤️ Thank you evolution expeditions, this memory will never be forgotten. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ From your Troublesome 2 from England UK Tom senior and Tom Junior 🤪🫶✌️

Venture Out Vegas team rocks!

We spent a most amazing day kayaking the Colorado and visiting the Emerald Cave with VENTURE OUT VEGAS. Blair, our guide, was funny, shared much of the history of the area with us, and quickly became a part of our family. He made sure our experience was safe, fun, and left us with many great memories. Thank you for a wonderful day!
