Description

Paddle through the Black Canyon at sunset and continue under a sky full of stars, turning an ordinary kayak trip into an unforgettable nighttime adventure. As daylight fades, you explore historic sites, spot desert wildlife, then pause to enjoy roasted hot dogs and a glowing bonfire right on the riverbank—before a magical return paddle beneath the stars. This is an atmospheric, guided journey that lets you experience the Colorado River in a way few others do.

Wonderful Twilight Tour for Two

We had such a great experience on our kayak tour yesterday, and Chelsea was an absolutely awesome guide. Shane and I had taken this same tour years ago, but this experience felt even more special because it was just the two of us and we were really able to relax, take everything in, and enjoy the pace of the trip. Chelsea shared so much interesting information throughout the tour and made the whole experience engaging without ever feeling rushed. We saw some amazing wildlife, learned a lot, and honestly just had a really peaceful and enjoyable time out on the water. You can tell Chelsea genuinely loves what she does, and it made a huge difference in the experience. Highly recommend!

Absolutely recommend

We had the most fun on an evening kayak tour yesterday. The guides, Walter and Ashley, perfectly explained how to properly paddle for those of us who hadn’t done it before! The whole trip was just beautiful! Kayaking up the river until we stopped for dinner with a bonfire then kayaking in the dark back was such a cool experience. Highly recommend Blazin’ Paddles for all outdoor adventuring!

Worth every bit of it!

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

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

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.
