What to expect
Itinerary
For those looking for spectacular scenery, this is the perfect kayak tour. The Emerald Cave Express Kayak tour paddles onto the Colorado River at various times, starting at Willow Beach, Arizona. This is a great tour for beginners or advanced paddlers alike.
The moment the paddle dips into the emerald green Colorado River, one is transported back in time. Paddle past historic sites of the 1920's era government project that gave life to the desert southwest. Venture into the Black Canyon narrows to explore the historical site and take amazing photos after you have backed your kayak up into the Emerald Cave. This tour is a total of four miles on the Colorado River.
- Three hours

- Historical sites
- Wildlife viewing

• Willow Beach, Willow Beach, Arizona
• Colorado River, Grand Canyon National Park, AZ

We did the Kayaking tour to The Emerald Cave. Our guide was Burton and from the moment he collected us from our hotel till the end of the tour he was friendly, fun and a fountain of information. He made the trip fun by adding water guns to every kayak. The whole trip was full of informative information and fun water fights with others in the group including Burton. I would highly recommend this Kayaking trip. This was my first time ever kayaking and Burton made it so easy and took away all fears.
