I was lucky enough to have a 2 day paddle down the Colorado River through Desert Adventures and it was awesome. We didn't have a guide, as I was with some students and our professor had done the trip a million times. He has rented through Desert Adventures for years. The price was great, we were picked up on time... More

I can't say enough positive things about our experience on this trip! Daniel picked us up bright and early at our hotel and shared tons of interesting info about the area on our way to the shop. We somehow were blessed to have 3 guides to accompany us. Jennifer, Reid and Jordan were fantastic--full of local trivia, very patient, and... More

Plenty of tour companies offer this trip. Desert Adventures (http://kayaklasvegas.com) made it as easy and fun for us as the first time. To do all the side hikes, etc a longer day than the 7-8 hours we had is needed - lots of people overnight this section so they can see more of the side canyons and hikes. This paddle... More

We paddled for three days and had a magical experience. Our 3 and 5 year olds had a blast!  The staff had over and beyond customer service and the equipment was on point. It was a family memory that will remain forever.

My husband and I were on a business trip to Las Vegas and wanted to take advantage of our proximity to some of the National Parks and book a tour. We found Desert Adventures and booked a 4 Day Grand Circle Camping trip with our guide Jennifer. She picked us up at our hotel in Vegas early on the first... More

We found a groupon for an all-day guided hike to the hot springs. The group (of 3 couples with one guide) met at the Desert Adventure store in Boulder City at 9:00am. We left the store by 9:07am. It was a brief van ride (aprox 10 minutes) to a parking lot at the trailhead. The hike was 3-4 miles to... More

You might think weather with highs in the 50s wouldn't be good kayaking on the Colorado River. Think again. Little or no crowds mean you basically have the river to yourself, and when the sun shines, it's really perfect kayaking weather. GREAT time of the year to go. The guided tour takes guests on some short hikes to the hidden... More

My wife and I wanted to get off the Las Vegas Strip and see the West. Desert Adventures provided an outstanding experience. We booked the Full-Day Black Canyon Kayak trip for December 15th. Even with weather in the low 40's we had a great day. Desert Adventures picked us up at our hotel on the strip (The Vdara) promptly at... More

I rented a sit-in kayak for a 1/2 day rental so I could go fish in the lake mead rec area. The booking was easy, the driver who delivered my boat on time, and the rental rates and hassle minimal. Two thumbs up if you are looking for a brak from the casinos and some affordable and most importantly fun... More

Our hide, Antonio was awesome, very kowledgable. The following day I did the Hoover Dam Bike Ride . Our guide Dan was fantastic as well. The ride was easy, but... More
