We were a group of 10 who booked for the November 15th visit. We were expecting rain in the forecast but mid day. We got a text saying that we can get there early so we can beat the rain if we want. So of course we arrived early. Jonny was our guide. He was knowledgeable about the area we would pass through, he was professional, fun, hilarious, sweet and playful! Not only that, he was a great photographer! (We really got a 2 for 1 deal with Jonny!) It was my husband’s and my first time kayaking but he made it super easy and comfortable for us. We would highly recommend Jonny and his company to give you an amazing experience!

Breathtaking scenery kayaking down the Colorado River. Highlight of my trip to Vegas. Tour guide Zen was absolutely amazing!

We booked the kayaking rental without the guided tour for me, my husband and our 10 year old son. The shuttle picked us up, along with a few others, on time from Mandalay Bay. Our driver, and guide, Robby was amazing! He invited us to join the group on the guided tour and were so glad he did! He made the experience unforgettable. He was super friendly and extremely knowledgeable. Aside from the amazing experience kayaking the beautiful Colorado River, we took a little hike on the beach and experienced a view we never would have on our own. I would 100 percent recommend Las Vegas SUP Kayak Club!

We took the shuttle from Mandalay Bay. Our driver was Zen. Zen and the whole group was great. We had a great time. Also, Emerald Cove is amazing. I definitely would go back and would recommend it.

Guided tour is worth it if you are doing emerald cave for the first time. It is a fun experience for the entire family!
