10 out of 10 - Gio, the owner of EZ Kayak Tours is amazing! Great communication leading up to the day of rental, including pictures and a video of exactly where to meet. He took a family picture for us as we launched and gave us tips and landmarks to look out for on our paddle to Emerald Cave. It isn't often that our kids agree on anything, but both said they had a blast and couldn't wait to go again. If you're in Vegas and looking for something fun and different, give EZ Kayak Tours a call. You will not be disappointed!

BEST EXPERIENCE - Came from England to visit family from Vegas I seen this experience via Tiktock and told my family about it. It exceeded our expectations and more. The kids had so much fun. Wow what a beautiful place. I was super nervous as I had never kayaked before but our guide Burton really helped keep me at ease and stayed nearby. I highly recommend this tour and company. Will definitely be back when I visit next.

One of the best experiences I've had with a tour booking - I would give EZ Kayak a million stars if I could. From the beginning Gio (the owner) was in direct contact with us and made sure we knew all of the details and was transparent with pricing. He even moved our booking a day later free of charge due to high winds in the area. The kayak ride was amazing and they provided water and snacks for us as well. Even though this was a self guided boat rental, we really felt great hospitality and service!

Great Experience - We recently took a self guided tour with EZ Kayak. The owner Gio contacted soon after we booked the trip to provide useful information about our trip. Gio was very responsive and was easy to communicative with. Gio met us in the parking lot with a smile and a wealth of information about our trip. Our trip was self guided but Gio guided us through the first half of the trip imparting various knowledge of the river and it's surroundings. Gio supplied us with snacks, hats, waterproof containers for our phones, nice kayaks and paddle. The river provided excellent scenery and was an easy paddle both up and back on the river. Gio met upon our return to the launch with a smile. I highly recommend EZ Kayak.

Great family fun! - The team was very informative and detailed as to where to go, safety instructions, and provided everything we needed to make our experience more enjoyable. We appreciated the extras, dry bags, phone protectors, snacks and plenty of water. All we needed to do was show up and have fun! We saw beautiful scenery, clear water and had a relaxing family experience! I would highly recommend this trip!

Amazing Experience, Highly Recommend - We absolutely loved this wonderful experience which was even more than we expected! EZ Kayak certainly did make it EZ with thorough instructions, snacks and attractive comfortable kayaks. We anticipated the cove to be beautiful, but hadn't realized the banks of the entire 2 miles back (easy paddle downstream) were also glowing green. Mother Nature at her Best and EZ helped make it happen.

One more activity before the vacation ends. - I had recently read an article about Emerald Cove and, coincidentally, my wife and I had a Vegas getaway scheduled. It seemed like the perfect opportunity to add one more activity to our trip before returning home to Phoenix. After booking with EZ Kayak online, Gio reached out and provided us with all the information we needed. We met David the next day at the river and he had the tandem kayak we requested all ready to go. Not only was the kayak ready, he also had a bag of snacks and bottles of water for us. We chose to do the self guided tour as we needed flexibility with our schedule. David gave us great directions before we left the shore, so we feel like we kind of had a guide after all. I’m glad I came across the article that inspired the trip and I’m glad I came across EZ Kayak as they made it stress-free and enjoyable. Highly recommended.
