testimonials
Julia Wildeman
Ian was an extremely knowledgeable and fun tour guide!
I learned so many facts about the location and he even pointed out tons of local wildlife like bighorn sheep, a wild tarantula, and schools of fish!
I can’t recommend this tour enough whether you’re a Vegas local or just visiting and looking for some beautiful outdoor activities.
Nicolas Potel
Fantastic experience! We enjoyed the river at the best time possible with beautiful light and almost entirely to ourselves. We strongly recommend Kayak Lake Mead and will most definitely do another trip with them next time we're in the area.
Cheryl Lehneman
We had a wonderful morning on the river with Ian. Kayak lake mead offers smaller groups and earlier times. It was amazing to be on the river with no one else. Highly recommend this tour to anyone who loves the outdoors!
Frequently Asked Questions
Is There A Strong Current?
No, the section of the Colorado River that our kayak tours are on is between the Hoover Dam and the Davis Dam, meaning the water doesn't move very quickly.
What destinations do you offer tours to?
Our tours will take you to destinations such as the Emerald Cave, also called Emerald Cove, Cranes Nest Wash, Arizona Hot Springs, Gold Strike Hot Springs, and more!
What is included in your tour packages?
All necessary kayaking equipment, snacks, and an excellent kayak tour guide!
Can I customize the duration of my tour?
As long as your group is the only one on the tour and there are no other conflicts with scheduling we are happy to work with you regarding start and duration.
What is the weight limit?
Our kayaks have a 300 lb. capacity per person. If you are concerned about tipping we suggest using a tandem kayak although heavier they provide more stability. The singles, while more streamlined, can be less stable and require better balance.
Is there light in the cave?
Our kayak tour start times provide plenty of light in the cave. Don't take our word for it, check out this review!
Can I go on a kayak tour today?
Our tours must be booked 24 hours in advanced. Some of the other kayak tour outfitters sometimes accommodate same day bookings if you call early enough.
How do I make a reservation?
Visit any of our tour pages, click book now on the tour of your choice, select a date on the calendar then pick a start time, then choose how many paddlers will be going and fill out your information.
What is your cancellation and refund policy?
All tours can be cancelled with more than 72 hours notice from departure time. To offset the fact we don't charge booking and processing fees, we charge a 20% cancellation fee. There is no penalty for tours cancelled due to weather safety. All tours cancelled with less than 72 hours notice are non-refundable unless you purchased Peek Protect.
How many people are on the tour?
We ensure a more quiet and personalized amazing experience by providing a knowledgeable guide to smaller groups.
