“This was an excellent tour – we were picked up from outside our hotel and travelled to Hoover Dam with Tony who was fun and informative. Had plenty of time at the dam and did the elevator tour to the generators which was great. Would highly recommend this tour.”

“We went on the 3 hour tour last week and enjoyed it immensely. The big powered raft was smooth with beautiful scenery, and as a bonus, provided close-up views of Hoover Dam that are stunning. The staff were all excellent and we got to see some big horn sheep too. As Las Vegas locals, we highly recommend this tour.”

I live in DE and it was my first trip to Vegas. As much as I liked seeing the Casinos…my favorite part of my trip was the bus tour to the Hoover Dam. Our tour guide, Spencer, was wonderful. I truly loved all the info on Nevada he provided. He talked about employment, utility bills, cost of living, Nevada proving grounds, 5 types of rattlesnakes, 3 types of scorpions, the movie star homes, you name it. He was a pleasure to be around all day. Thanks for the great memories!

My wife and I have seen Wayne Brady, Phantom of the Opera and three different Cirque du Soleil productions. I golfed three different days while in Vegas, and we ate at some fabulous restaurants. While we enjoyed everything, we both agree the highlight of our trip was kayaking down Black Canyon with Desert Adventures. We look forward to booking with you again on our next trip to Vegas!

The post Highlight of our Trip (Colorado River Kayak) appeared first on Incredible Adventures.

We are elderly (70’s) seasoned river/lake/white water kayakers from Upper Michigan. The day long guided trip in Black Canyon was well worth the money! Easy paddling with time to explore Sauna Cave, Mack’s Grotto, the falls and bask in the 100 degree comfortable heat soaking in the beauty of the Colorado and its ancient canyon banks. We sat in awe as fifteen big horn sheep showed themselves during the trip. One came down to the river for a drink within 10 feet of the kayak; three others within 20 feet put on a butting heads act for us. A great guide with a delightful sense of humor enriched the trip with history, geography, geology, and cultural lessons. Shuttle service to and from hotel, sturdy kayaks, attention to safety and even a souvenir water bottle all added up to top satisfaction!
