We spent an incredible morning with Cameron on the river. Turns out Mondays there are no speed boats allowed and for the first couple of hours we were the only ones out there. The scenery is amazing, Cameron was great - taking tons of photos and videos so we could enjoy the experience, highlighting interesting areas and nature. The pace was good for 4 novices. Overall we had such a great time and its definitely the highlight of our trip to Las Vegas area. Thank you Cameron for looking after us, being patient and taking such great photos! The McCulloch!

Cameron gave us an amazing tour of the river, really looked after us. We had a great time, none of us fell in. Scenery was beautiful and so calm. Mondays are no boat days so at times it juat like us on the river. Being October is was hot but a nice temperature. Saw heron's, crayfish and a cpuple od other bits of wildlife. So glad we did it. Amazing trip. Thank you again Cameron. From the McCulloch's

Absolutely wonderful kayak trip! Now my favorite adventure with knowledgeable, fun and kind guides! I never knew that the history was so important and interesting. Guides made me feel capable and strong! I’m ready to try a longer trip next time. I can’t wait!

James and I had the good fortune of having Cameron guide us on our adventure to Emerald Cove and Colorado River. Spotted owl family, grey blue herons, turkey vultures, beautiful tiny birds... Cam took hundreds of photos/vids for us (surprise gift) and even brought perfect river lunch and beverages. We can't wait to get back. Highly recommend seeking out Cameron of Camelot with Adventure Child!

Gino was INCREDIBLE! I’ve been an outdoor guide for over 20 years and he is a notch above the rest. Extremely personable, welcoming, informative and an amazing photographer. I didn’t touch my phone once because he took all the photos. I’ve never thought about it, but having your guide take the photos means you get to relax and enjoy the experience. I can’t recommend this trip and Gino enough.
