Definitely try this when the weather is nice. So relaxing and peaceful…read more There are food and beverages on the cruise. The burger is really good. The ride is not short but very smooth. You get to see the Hoover dam on the river which is a different experience from getting in the dam.

My review is only for the Dinner Cruise. The other cruises they offer may differ from my…read moreexperience. I do note that it is no fault of the cruise people but the walk to the ship is chock full of walking hazards. All kinds of different sized rocks are embedded into the dirt path. Even the walkway to the ship has many uneven surfaces. Some of the people in the group I came with were handicapped and had enormous difficulty with the walk. I also had trouble and had to be ultra careful. My experience also might be unusually bad because I heard several members of the staff didn't show up tonight for work. When you get on the ship you either go on the first level or go up the stairs to the second level. We chose the lower level because I'm slower with steps and didn't want to hold anyone up. Once inside it looks like a budget banquet room with long tables and banquet chairs. The best view that you see is the view from the dock. You see water and the mountains so take your picture now. There wasn't much to see and then it soon was just dark outside. Salads and dinner rolls with butter balls were already set up on the table. The salads seemed ok. Tonight nobody was taking drink orders because they didn't have enough help on. If you wanted a drink then you had to walk up the stairs, wait in line a while (only one bartender for whole ship) and then walk downstairs yourself with the drinks. My 92 year old neighbor was sitting across from us at out table and wanted a beer so my husband volunteered to get it for her so he got her a beer and a plastic cup of wine for me and wasn't able to carry a third drink so he did without. He noticed half of the upper floor were already served dinner. Downstairs we didn't receive dinner until about an hour before the cruise was over. It was PAINFUL to watch on how the served the dinners. The servers didn't use serving trays and inside only carried one or two plates at a time to serve everyone. I noticed that one lady did carry two plates at a time and the other lady could only carry ONE plate at a time so getting served dinner seemed like it took forever. Both dinners looked good BUT BOTH WERE AWFUL. The Prime Rib wasn't cooked right and was so tough that you needed a SAW. I tried a Chicken Dinner. They gave a very large portion but the chicken was over cooked and dry. But the worst part were the mushrooms. They gave me a generous amount of mushrooms that could have been good but were LETHAL DEATH BOMBS OF SALT THAT NOBODY IN THE WORLD COULD EAT. Desserts were served more quickly because one of the servers loaded the desserts on a serving tray and carried many in (as they should) Also dessert looked very nice but also was something that looked good but wasn't. It was decorated up mostly just some sort of Cool Whip type product. AT LEAST 3/4 JUST COOL WHIP over a thin piece of cake all decorated and looked nice. NO normal person really wants to eat mostly just Cool Whip. For most of the dinner cruise you just saw sad darkness out the windows and sat in a not so great or nice banquet room. Food was awful. (for $100. it should have been edible) Not enough service. Hazardous walks getting to and leaving from ship. I cannot recommend the Lake Mead DINNER Cruise.

Fantastic Bike and Kayak experience!! I would give 20 stars if I could!…read more Here's my break down: 1# BOOKING: Decided on 6:30am trip on a Saturday. Got to Bike and Kayak on the same HALF day trip and still get back to the strip and not skip a beat. Most impressive part****** I was the ONLY one who happened to sign up for this one, and really appreciated that they didn't cancel the tour on me, as most other tours would have. #2 COMMUNICATIONS: Gave clear instructions from the start. Picked me up in a nice Mercedes Sprinter van, both drivers so polite as to open the door for me both times. #3 EQUIPMENT AND PLANNING: Got lucky with practically, if not, brand new bike and helmet. Would recommend bring your own head mounted GoPro! #4 ACTUAL TOUR: Easy for even beginners honestly. Bike is mostly downhill. Early morning tour was great because weather was pleasant! Provided snack and water, you don't need to bring anything except hat and sunglasses. Seth and the whole crew who were involved were the most friendly and down to earth people. I would do this again totally and HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

He was friendly, knowledgeable, and made us feel welcome the entire time. He even offered to take photos for us, which was such a thoughtful touch and made the experience even more special. Thank you so much Don! The entire trip was organized, stress-free, and so much fun. You can tell they truly care about their customers and want everyone to have a great time. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and would recommend them to anyone looking for an unforgettable kayaking adventure!

My husband and I recently went on our first kayaking tour with Desert Adventures and it was a great…read moreway to see so much! We did the day trip starting at the Hoover Dame. We arrived to the shop at 5:30 am, yes early but worth the early start especially if it is going to be hot. We were paddling down the river by 7 am. We stopped at many natural hot springs and caves along the way. Unfortunately we did the tour on a very windy day so kayaking was definitely a workout! Our guide was great and full of knowledge. He tried to provide us breaks throughout and tips for avoiding the most windy part of the river. Lunch, snacks and water were all provided and much so needed after paddling for so long against the wind. We ended our day around 3-3:30 and had roughly a 30 minute drive back to the shop. We had a great time and we will be recommending this tour to our friends visiting the Las Vegas area although our arms were SUPER sore the next day.

Desert Adventures is great! We did a self led excursion…read moredown the Colorado river but used this company to drop us off and pick us up! They provided a large trailer with ample shelves and space to put are gear onto. A safety speech was also given. This company has special authorization to enter the Hoover Dam property and take people down to launch from the entrance of the Hoover Dam. They instructed you to move quickly as there was a time limit for getting everyone/everything Into the water and away from the area. The next day, they were prompt with their pick up and helped us load our gear back onto the trailer. I would definitely use this company again and recommend them to others.

When we were looking for an experience that included exploration on the floor of the Grand Canyon…read morethis company kept coming up and I am so glad it did. We had to reschedule our trip twice and both times our money was fully refunded immediately. When we finally got to go it was so worth the wait. We were picked up at a local casino/hotel in Las Vegas and driven to small airport in Boulder where there were snacks and a gift shop. Short check-in and wait and then we boarded a small aircraft for about a 25 minute flight to the Grand Canyon. We were taken to the helicopter and fantastic flight over the canyon and down to the canyon floor where we boarded a covered pontoon boat for about a mile up the river. Views were spectacular and boat "captain" took multiple photos of everyone. Small group so easy and fun. You then spend several hours at a couple of different locations at the rim. NOTE: some climbing, some a little challenging for us but we are 70 and 80. Cannot take large backpack so think small but include money for lunch and sunscreen. Everyone - from pilots to boat crew to behind the scene employees are fantastic to work with. Once in a lifetime experience - worth every dime. Highly recommend.

We went on a plane to see the Grand Canyon. First off, all the staff at the airport were extremely…read morefriendly. The pilot and copilot were friendly. As you board the plane, they tell you where to sit. We ended up in the back of the plane, I'm guessing because my friend was tall and a little heavy, and I'm a little chunky so for weight purposes we got the back. It was not bad as it offered more leg room which the copilot told us which was a nice way of saying, you will balance out the weight for the rest of the people and being on a cane, sit in the back. I was on the left side of the plane which allowed me some great views of the Hoover Dam but not so great views of the Grand Canyon. The people on the right got the best views. The reason for the two stars, when you get on and sit down, they tell you to put on these headphones and to keep them on for the duration of the flight. A majority of the people did not keep them on. There was a little and I mean little history given as you approach the canyon and the rest was loud obnoxious music. Sadly there was NOTHING pointing anything out like, you are now flying over the Grand Canyon or giving you any landmarks to look at. If you did not know the canyon, you would never have know we actually flew over it as it looked a lot like parts of Lake Mead or mountain and desert terrain. It was a decent 1hr 20min flight with music playing in your ears, but I would NOT pay to do this again and if you have never been to the Grand Canyon, I would not recommend this tour. You will learn history like watching a movie but you will not know what you are looking at and if on the left side of the plane, you won't see much exciting landscape. The pilot & copilot add nothing to the information throughout the flight. The pilot flys the plane, the copilot helps him and every so often turns around to give you a thumbs up to make sure you are still alive. Save your money and take a bus tour, you will have better views, you will actually know you are in the Grand Canyon and you won't have to guess about anything you are seeing.
