Don’t miss this one!

Robbie was great! I’m a little older, a little out of shape, and he made sure I had fun. I went on the night tour, and it was outstanding! The stillness of nature at night was such a unique experience. I’ll remember this one for a lifetime!

Night time on the Colorado.

Our guide was Robby, he was great! Night time on the Colorado was relaxing and the amount of stars was awesome. Bonfire with S’mores was a bonus.

Magic by moonlight

Amazing experience! Xander was awesome, ensuring we had fun and felt safe the whole time. Kayaking by moonlight was so different. We started whilst the sun was up, through to sunset then by moonlight. We kayaked for 1.5miles then stopped on a beach for a bonfire and smoores plus a ghost story! We saw a skunk, crayfish, herons, bats, a big owl and heard coyotes too. This trip is suitable for beginners. I would definitely do this again!

Absolutely phenomenal...

Absolutely phenomenal tour! Xander was super friendly and knowledgeable. There were a couple cancellations on my small tour so it was just me but it still felt like I got the full experience. The river and the canyon are absolutely gorgeous at sunset and the tour included a stop at one of the beaches with a campfire and s'mores before heading back. Would 100% recommend and will definitely be bringing friends back next time I'm in town

8/10 would recommend

Great experience. Lots of fun. Very much for a beginner. - I asked twice for our glow sticks. I was offered a headlamp. Not the same. The other family already had theirs and took such fun photos in the dark. It felt like everyone else was offered an ice cream and we were given bottled water. Disappointing. -" You can also take part in a short hike to a place that will afford you a mind-blowing view." There is no hike. When we asked, were told it was too dark. It could not have gotten any brighter. There was a full moon. Change your advert.

Great evening on the water!

Overall the experience was great, and our only suggestion would be to have a guide in the front and a guide at the rear while kayaking. The fire, smores, native flute playing, and local lore stories added to the fun. Xander and Lexi were great guides! Awesome guides!!! Overall 2 thumbs up!!

Peaceful and fun

Xander was great! Him playing his indigenous flute was the best part of the tour. He was knowledgeable of the area. It was really fun.

Epic adventure

Amazing adventure. The ride back after dark was epic! The guides were very knowledgeable and very safe. The bonfire and marshmallows topped the night of adventure off
