We had a great time on the twilight kayaking trip! The water was cold and clear, the scenery was beautiful, we saw cool wildlife (fox, birds, bats, and lizards), and the boats were nice to paddle. Our guides Chris and Shae were amazing. We are looking forward to going on a full day trip with this company in the future and will recommend it to our friends/family.

Worth every bit of it!

Cookie_M, Oct 2023
Oh gosh, where to start!? This trip was fantastic. Everything from pick up, to travel, to registration, to the actual trip, and the time back again was an absolute blast. Andrew had his hands full with us 8 women, but he took all our silliness in stride! If I could give this trip 100 stars I would.

Totally awesome kayaking experience

Kristy_D, Oct 2023
On the way to Boulder City the trailer broke, but the girls that were also on our trip were a hoot! We were on our honeymoon. It was a quick stop, Andrew our tour guide handled it like a pro! Speaking of Andrew, he was really a cool dude and basically a baseball celebrity! He said he would autograph something for me if I mailed it to him. Bet Andrew, Bet! Anyway, the trip was fun! Andrew told us a lot, we learned a lot, the company was cool. Hot dogs and s’mores were awesome. Best part of our trip! We’re talking about coming back for the day trip to Hoover dam next spring when our daughter graduates high school. Well for sure be back!

Our First Kayak Trip!

Looking for something different? Kayak in the darkness of night! This is a great experience! Enjoy the scenery, sunset, night stars, bright moon and peace and quiet while kayaking the river. The guide and the staff were all so friendly and easy to deal with. Recommend for experienced or beginners, like us. Cheers, C

Mind Blowing Kyak Tour

Danni_F, Sep 2023
This kyaking adventure was absolutely beautiful. I have never been kyaking at night and to do it in such a magnificent place was just mind blowing. Our guide Greg was great, he made sure everything ran smoothly and kept the group together with ease. This is a must do for anyone looking for a unique experience while in Vegas.

Awesome Kayaking Adventure at Sunset

Thomas_J, Sep 2023
Awesome scenery, great tour and departure time. Good campfire hotdog and smores on a small beach after sunset. Great tour guide and small group size.

Response from Host, Sep 2023

The Twilight tour is super fun!!! The campfire and the stars make for an incredible time on the river. Thanks for sharing your feedback with us!

New Moon scenery

CHARLES_C, Jul 2023
The most memorable experience was kayaking down the river with a full moon and the peaceful scenery around us.

Response from Host, Jul 2023

You nailed it! The full moon the other night WAS magical! The twilight tour is over the top with almost NO people on the river, amazing stars and on certain night...moon! The twilight tour is perfect for the warm summer evenings. Thanks so much for your visual picture of the tour!

Amazing tour!! Don’t skip it!!

Kimberly_B, Mar 2022
We had such a great time on this tour. Mike was super informative and very helpful for us since we haven’t really kayaked before. The pickup and drop off was really easy. They text you updates and it makes it easier to chat with them. The fire with hotdogs and s’mores was awesome. Highly recommend taking this tour!!!

Response from Host, Mar 2022

Thanks so much for the great review! Mike and all the staff here are excited to hear that you enjoyed the tour, hotdogs and the ease of taking this Twilight tour. We work hard so you do not have to! The twilight tour is very special and one of the favorites of many guests! We look forward to seeing you return!

Take your time and enjoy!

Jimena_V, Mar 2022
It is a great idea the whole experience: the kayak, sunset, a short hike and an stop with fire and food. But at the moment we were there some of the other participants were like in a hurry and didn’t stay long and enjoy the fire and food and night.

Response from Host, Mar 2022

We are so glad that you enjoyed your Twilight Tour! It is a magical experience and really fun to roast hot dogs and make s'mores on the beach during the sunset. We noticed that you only rated the tour with 4 stars? We strive to make every tour the best for all of our guests. Please let us know how we can do better to earn that 5 stars! Your input is valuable and we use it to make our tours the best they can be. Thanks,

A great time away from the strip!

Dan_D, Jan 2022
Such a great time! This is a late review but my wife and I went during Labor Day weekend. The guides were great and were well stocked with snacks and water. We even got to cook hot dogs and and make smores over a camp fire. When it got dark out, seeing the stars while cruising along the river was so cool! Would definitely recommend.

Response from Host, Jan 2022

The twilight tour is one of our favorites to conduct. There is something magical about gliding on the water at night under the stars! Thanks so much for your 5star review and the great recommendation!

Great experience!

Angela_T, Oct 2021

Amazingly beautiful kayaking trip

Jami_K, Sep 2021
What a beautiful place to be a sunset. The view is amazing and it was so peaceful. Mike was a great guide. Full of information and just easy to talk too and make the adventure fun. Kelly in their office was amazing too. She called me to move our kayak trip and we was so personable and friendly. A great company to book with and kayak with. Would do it again in a heartbeat.
