Choose THIS company!!
Robert was an absolutely FANTASTIC tour guide!! He was one of the first ones there in the morning, had all of our kayaks set up and ready to go even before the scheduled time. He was so friendly and helpful, and was a wealth of knowledge along with providing drinks and snacks! He took lots of photos of us during the trip, and send us the link within 2 hours of completion (the photos were free, too! So nice!!). We couldn’t have asked for anyone better. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience because of Robert!!
Sure, you can save a few pennies to rent kayaks and do the trip on your own…but you won’t get any of the tidbits of information about the area. And THIS specific company did a fantastic job maintaining communication and making sure we were satisfied! There are SO many choices out there, but I’d highly recommend this one!!

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.

The Absolute Best Way to See Antelope Canyon!
Starting from the Antelope Point Launch Ramp, we paddled across Lake Powell. The water was like glass in the morning, peaceful, scenic, and honestly, a great arm workout! Be prepared for a little bit of "choppy" water on the way back if the wind picks up or boat wakes from the main channel roll in. Once we reached the back of the canyon, we docked the kayaks and hiked through the slot canyon. Because you can only access this section by water, it felt so much more private and serene than the standard walking tours. The geological formations are breathtaking, and our guide was great about pointing out unique features and helping us take photos. I would highly recommend taking this tour!

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!

Great adventure - confidence building and fun!
This was a wonderful experience for our group! Our guide (Cameron) was truly amazing! We had a group of 6 with a wide range of personalities, abilities, experience kayaking and comfort on the water, and Cameron coached each one through their specific needs with an open heart and creative spirit.

Awesome
Great experience and loved our tour guide. Very knowledgeable and made us feel comfortable with the equipment prior to getting on the lake! Also appreciated a courtesy call regarding weather conditions and offered accommodations for our reservations If we were not comfortable with the winds! Overall, very worth it!

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.

Great tour, be careful with the timing and arrival.
We arrived an hour early due to time zone differences but we were not able to reach out or check our booking details because Willow Beach lies in an area with no mobile network coverage.
We started a little late due to this and were able to just catch the Emerald Cave lighting up in time (it was also shining low due to November) but our guide Paul made it work.
Additionally, Paul was an awesome guide who provided us a lot of additional insight about the place and area, history etc.
Even in November, the 85 °F were inviting us to take a swim during and after the tour which made us soak up the after-vibes of the tour experience to a maximum and made an overall awesome day.
The insights Paul provided, made us want to come back for more exploration on our own or even attending the longer tour to the Hoover Dam.

Fun in the sun
I've been on several kayak/hike trips solo and this one is one of my top enjoyable ones. The guide is very knowledgeable so ask questions and he will answer. The hiking trip was also fun went through barefoot crawled around on the canyon walls and had more history lesson. Not sure how this trip could ever have a bad review!

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!

Fun kayaking experience with more of a time crunch end goal. Still tons of fun
This was a very fun activity to get away from the concrete jungle while enjoying the heat! We went down for the 4 mile excursion.
The good: our guide, Jessica. Was very personable and had a wonderful, outgoing personality. She included everyone in the group in having fun. She stopped and helped us take pictures of each other and even took pictures of us on her phone that she sent to everyone the next day! Jessica gave us historical facts about the area.
The bad: it felt very rushed. Was not a leisurely kayaking experience. It was a get over here in 3 minutes, across the river in 6...I had never been kayaking before and found this much more trying that I thought it'd be. We weren't able to look around at the sights because of the go, go of the tour. On the way back, my boyfriend and I fell back behind the group and enjoyed paddling at our speed looking at the goats, eagles, and all the other sights we didn't get to see on our way to the cove. The cove is very small and only allows approx 10 people in at a time. There was a 30-40 min wait time for our turn to take pictures in the <5 minutes.
Overall, I'd definitely do it again. Must do a tandem instead of a single. See if there's a different style group or rental that isnt so time goal oriented that would allow for more of a casual (vs feeling like a race...this was expressed by a few couples in the group) kayaking experience with a goal, ie the cave.
