It was my partner's 30th birthday and we had planned a trip to Vegas. I wanted to do something a bit random for a birthday present, and after searching through loads of trips and websites, I decided on a kayak trip down colorado river. It was brilliant value for money and the most amazing scenery. Even with an early start,... more

We went on their hike, kayak, and hot springs trip. All of their preparations were flawless. Everything was well organized, even including the very tasty lunches. The scenery in the Black Canyon and the hot springs were great too. We were very impressed with our guide's historical and geographical knowledge. Our family (including 2 teenagers) could not have imagined a... more

My son and I did a kayak trip with Desert Adventures on April 1st. I think the cost was between $360 in all--about $180 each with permits. I chose this company because I read some mixed reviews for the other similar companies. I had read that some of the other company's customers had gotten inexperienced apathetic guides. That was not... more

We took advantage of a self guided kayak trip down the Black Canyon below the Hoover Dam on November 30, 2008. We are not experienced at kayaking, but we thought we would give it a try and so glad we did. What a fantastic day we had! Desert Adventures is first class all the way. Our day started out by... more

My husband I booked a kayaking trip with Desert Adventures the first week of October. I had been to Vegas many times but had never had the opportunity to go off strip and see the beauty outside the city. This kayak was truly the highlight of my trip and something I would certainly do again. The staff was courteous and... more

If you're looking for something to do besides shop and gamble, Desert Adventures offers a great trip down the Colorado River. Their equipment is nice and their staff was great. My boyfriend and I opted for a self-guided kayak tour and we were completely comfortable paddling down the river for the day. Albert did a great job explaining everything we... more

We took a spring break trip through Arizona and one of the highlights was a canoe and kayak trip down the Colorado River beginning at the Hoover Dam. Desert Adventures was our outfitter and had plenty of good advice and quality equipment. This trip is not full of raging waterfalls and rapids. It is smooth water with fun stops and... more

While accompanying my husband on a business trip to Las Vegas recently I had some free time to myself and decided to take a kayak trip with Desert Adventures. The tour began at the Hoover Dam and went 11 miles down river to Willow beach. We made about 5 stops along the way to enjoy a few hot springs, lunch... more

We went to Las Vegas with the intent to do what everyone does there. However, we wanted to take a day trip elsewhere to check out what the Nevada desert had to offer. We booked a kayaking trip through Desert Adventures to kayak the Hoover Dam. Both my boyfriend and I were new to kayaking. A Desert Adventures representative called... more
