I had the pleasure of kayaking to the Emerald Cove with Isaac as our tour guide and it was an unforgettable experience. Amidst a series of activities and adventures we had on our trip to Miami, Mexico and Vegas this stood out as the most fantastic. Paddling through the stunning emerald green waters, surrounded by nature and wildlife. This was a profound way to experience the other side of Nevada.. It's a perfect escape for those wanting a break from the Las Vegas Strip. The guide was excellent, making the activity informative and fun. I highly recommend this adventure for anyone looking to immerse themselves in natural beauty." Everything from pick-up to drop off went smoothly thank you Isaac and Joeleane

Unfortunately our trip was actually cancelled due to the windy conditions. The company quickly offered an alternative but unfortunately we were flying home before we could do the trip. I wanted to write a review to state how good the company was in firstly contacting us and offering an alternative, but also they arranged the refund which was very speedy. 100% confidence in this company.
