Do It!

Las vegas paddle board company is stellar! This was my second time booking with them and renting kayaks for self guided tours. The five hour time allowance is ample for getting to the cove and back and stopping multiple times to sunbathe , and swim in between! They go above and beyond to get you rescheduled @ your convenience , if you are booked on a day that ends up having high wind. This river is absolutely gorgeous colors in perfectly clear all the way to the bottom , especially on the edges! Do not miss this one!
