Memorable and Fun
Our tour guide Justin made the kayaking trip so memorable and fun. The river is so beautiful and relaxing.
Emerald Cave Kayak with Jonny!
It was a great kayaking adventure! Guide (Jonny) provided detailed instructions for pickup and met us on time. Trip to Willow Beach was a little over 1 hour and we were off! We had a beautiful day and we’re set off to work on our kayak strokes before paddling 2 miles down the river. Jonny spent time with all of us to make sure we had the basics down and then entertained us with his stories and background of the trip and area we were traveling. Once we made it to the Emerald Cave we all backed into the cave and peered out. We were able to get a few decent pictures but the cave to me was sort of anti-climatic! We headed back to Willow Beach with a stop for refreshments. Overall, it was an excellent excursion and Jonny made the trip very enjoyable! My shoulders are slightly sore but I will survive! If you get a chance get Jonny as your guide!
Wonderful experience
Amazing Kayak Experience at Emerald Cave! I had an absolutely amazing time on the Emerald Cave kayak tour! The scenery was beautiful and breathtaking, and the whole experience was so much fun from start to finish. Our tour guide was fantastic—fun, friendly, informative, and made the experience even more enjoyable. They shared interesting information along the way while making sure everyone was having a great time. I went on September 21, and it was definitely an experience I’ll remember. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Las Vegas. The beautiful views, fun adventure, and great tour guide made it an unforgettable experience!
Not As Expected
The kayaking was awesome with calm waters and neat vistas. Our guide was very professional and shared a lot of good anecdotes about the area and its history. Unfortunately in our group we had several participants who weren’t prepared to paddle for that distance and they slowed our group down a lot. We finished an hour later than expected. I think it might be good to ask about your ability level when booking this tour. Also, the cave is actually just an alcove that fits maybe 8 kayaks backed in and pushed together. We waited 50 minutes to do this and we were all very underwhelmed. Don’t go into this thinking you are actually going to be kayaking in a cave like we did.
There were ten of us...
There were ten of us doing this tour for a bachelorette trip and We all had a great time….. tour guide Johnny was excellent. Easy pick up instructions… comfortable van for traveling to and from and a beautiful day on the water.
