TripAdvisors enjoy kayaking with Desert Adventures, giving the Vegas outdoor getaway a 4.5-owl eye average. Three Yahoo! Locals give it five:
- A+, 5-star, all the way. I'll definately [sic] be booking more trips through these guys/gals. – Competent Realtor, Yahoo! Local
- If you're looking for something to do besides shop and gamble, Desert Adventures offers a great trip down the Colorado River. Their equipment is nice and their staff was great. – LA_Neener, TripAdvisor

Need To Know Info
About Desert Adventures
After noticing a lack of guided outdoor-excursion opportunities, James Dingess founded Desert Adventures in 2004 to help locals and visitors to take advantage of Nevada’s stunning natural landscapes. What began as a small paddling outfit with a handful of kayaks and a single employee has since expanded to include ATV, mountain biking, and time-travel adventures led by knowledgeable guides. Desert Adventures stays true to its kayaking roots with a fleet of 125 shells and half- to four-day Colorado River runs. Guides also lead multiday, multisport excursions combining various activities, as well as high-speed ziplining tours that careen from the top of Red Mountain to the base of Bootleg Canyon. Most adventures accommodate all skill levels, but some carry experience or age restrictions.
