5.00Absolutely the best day so far in Vegas! This tour is incredible. Our tour guide, Faith, was fantastic. We have done other guided tours but this one was by far the best! Faith's knowledge and enthusiasm is superb - the mermaid costume was brilliant and the water guns were hilarious fun. Overall this tour is a must when visiting Vegas to get a break from the bright lights of the City. The weather was perfect and the scenery is amazing! Thanks to Faith for a great experience!
Great guide made for great fun

5.00It was a punishing hot day. Our guide Jayden provided ice cold water and kept us all safe snd hydrated. The paddle was moderately long at about two miles each way. Jayden’s comments on history and wildlife were great. The expedition was extremely customer friendly. From transportation to kayaking tips for us less experienced travelers. We saw birds reptiles and wild sheep, amazing. Highly recommend
Well worth it!

5.00Awesome experience! It was very easy booking with Evolution Expeditions through TripAdvisor, and great follow up closer to date of booking to verify details & answer any questions, to the guide calling the morning of to introduce himself before you show up. Our guide, Soren, was amazing! He was patient, friendly, knowledgeable and made this an easy fun excursion. Highly recommend and cannot express how fun it was. Our party had little or no kayak experience but didn’t have any issues at all.
