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!
