Q&A

Q: Are there any age limits for this kayak and hike tour?

A: Yes, this tour is designed for experienced paddlers. Generally, participants should be at least 12 years old, but it can depend on the group's overall skill level. If you're planning to gift this, make sure the recipient is comfortable with kayaking and hiking in rugged terrain. It's a solid challenge, but definitely a blast for the right crowd!

Q: What should I wear for the Black Canyon kayak and hike tour?

A: Dress in breathable, moisture-wicking clothes. I recommend a good pair of swim shoes since you’ll be on the water and hiking a bit. Don’t forget sunscreen, a hat, and sunglasses! The tour can get pretty hot since it's in the desert, so layers are key for the cooler morning and warmer afternoon. Also, bring a swimsuit if you're planning to swim at the beach stop!

Q: What happens if the weather is bad on the day of the tour?

A: If the weather is unsafe for kayaking, they typically reschedule the tour. Trek Las Vegas is pretty flexible about that. You can usually call ahead or check their website for updates. Just make sure to keep an eye on the forecast leading up to the trip! They want everyone to have a safe and enjoyable time.
