Paddle the Verde River, then meet your group for burgers and beer
4 hours
Guided kayak tour, shuttle, beer
Start with a guided kayak paddle on the Verde River, then head to The Krow for burgers, beer, and game time. Shuttle service connects the meet-up, check-in, and river launch so you can focus on the day.
No alcohol, smoking, or vaping is allowed on guided tours. You must be able to walk up the ramp from the river dock and sit and paddle in a kayak; this tour is not wheelchair accessible. Children ages 5+ can be included in group reservations, and third-trimester pregnancy requires doctor clearance.
Group reservations are nonrefundable. Rebooking is possible with advance notice; short-notice changes may incur rebooking fees.
Plan on a set timeline: 11:30am shuttle pick-up from The Krow, 11:45am check-in at OAC Tours, 12:00pm shuttle to the river, 12:15pm safety talk and launch, 12:30–2:30pm guided kayak tour, 2:45pm return shuttle to OAC Tours to change, and 3:00pm shuttle to The Krow.
Dress for the weather and water temperatures. You get wet from the waist down and you’ll walk in and out of the river, so expect wet and muddy shoes. Do not wear flip flops, Crocs, or slides.
Bring a refillable water bottle, hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, and any personal river essentials. Lock everything else up at the boathouse.

We had a wonderful day kayaking the Verde river. Our guides were full of knowledge about the area and were super helpful making us feel comfortable. It was a beautiful day and the perfect excursion for a hot sunny day! Would absolutely recommend to anyone and all ages!
