Scenic Guided Kayaking Tour On Saguaro Lake

The tour was amazing. Teri was a perfect guide and really knowledgeable about the area. Highly recommend, even for novice kayakers!

. Highly recommend this company if you want a nicely planned very enjoyable kayaking trip at the lake. Guided were great.

Paul was an excellent guide. He provided knowledge, humor, and a good experience. He even had some personal snacks of his own that were very delicious.

Horses , water , great guides and the view !!!

We were a party of 11 celebrating a birthday. Riverbound team is great, they were flexible in adding additional members to our group, preparing us for the activity and our guides Erin and Paul were awesome. We were all first timers to the lake so it was great to have individual who could highlight the scenic uniqueness and answering any questions. We were very fortunate as we were able to see a couple of bald eagles sitting on a ledge which was a highlight. They also took us down this narrow outlet that allowed us to get out, stretch and have some healthy snacks. They were very helpful to those who were struggling with their kayak or tipped over. We all agreed we will be back to explore more of the lack. What a great adventure and right in our backyard!

The lake was beautiful and we really enjoyed our time kayaking and seeing the sites. The highlight of the trip was seeing the two bald eagles . We really felt we could have just rented kayaks and taken the trip ourselves. We felt the guide didn’t do a great job of giving us information about the area and about the lake. Most of the time we had to try to keep up with the guide, as he was very far ahead of us.

Paul our guide was the best took the time to explain and show us

What a great trip! Our family loved the Salt River kayak trip. It was beautiful and fun. We saw the wild horses, turtles, a bald eagle, and so much more. The day we went there were small rapids between beautiful stretches of calm water. Our guides Teri and Paul were wonderful. They told us what was coming and what to expect and pointed out all the wildlife along the way. We all agreed we’d do the trip again in a minute.

The tour tour guys were amazing and so polite

This was an amazing time with Paul who was the greatest guide. A very personalized trip exploring the lake and its branches. The views were the best! If you are I. The area this is a must do! Let Paul show you all of the lakes beauties. Don’t miss out!

Great time 10/10 experience, Guides were amazing and kayaking on that beautiful lake was a blast. Shout out to Paul for staying behind after the tour to make sure me and my brothers uber arrived. He said “they always make sure everybody is good for they leave” that was greatly appreciated! Thank yall

Paul our guide was so nice and made me feel comfortable right away. He was so enthusiastic about kayaking and makes me want to start kayaking more. He was so helpful with techniques and wonderful scenic tour information. He had great snacks and loved how he interacted with people we met along the way.

Paul was a terrific guide! The scenery was fantastic, the length of trip was perfect, and the level of instruction vs freedom to move was well balanced. Snacks and short hike were lovely as well.

We had a wonderful time. Peaceful. Beautiful. The contrast of rock cliffs n water is simply amazing. I recommend this … for all levels of kayakers.

What a surprise! Beautiful views, great instructor/guide, company very communicative with changing water levels. All around a wonderful morning.

Beautiful day and good time with Paul our guide! We plan to go to Salt River next year. Loved the trip! Everyone in our group gave it 5 out of 5.

This was an awesome relaxing experience. Very appreciative tour was guided so didn’t have to try and navigate unknowns and orient self with unfamiliar territory. We would do this again. Morning tour was perfect as not too hot! Guide was awesome!! We will do this again!

Teri was very helpful with information prior to the day and was a lovely guide for our Saguaro Lake experience. She brought water and snacks for the journey for us. It's a very long paddleboard experience (4.7 miles) if you're not used to it. Most of our group said they went home to crash after the morning event. Be prepared with a large hat and lots of sunblock or sun shirts. We also appreciated Teri's photos that she uploaded for us by the end of the day.

Had a great time kayaking with Teri. She is very friendly and approachable and helps with any and everything. Great day on the lake and great views. Teri also takes the best pictures.

Tammy is a wonderful guide, knowledgeable and friendly. She made us feel right at home. The excursion was relaxing and enjoyable.

Teri and Paul were awesome! Very helpful geting equipment setup and with kayaking techniques. Very freindly with lots of of info during the trip.

The Tour Guide - Terri & Paul - are great partners. 1guide, 1 ensuring of the group’s safety. The tour was fun & they pointed out the wildlife which we couldn’t spot. They are friendly & i love to join their next tour activities.

If you want to go on a relaxing tour of Saguaro Lake, this is the one for you. Scenery, wildlife, exercise, and excellent comradery with other people. The Staff Teri & Paul were excellent guides, but most important tremendous people.

We had a really great time on the Saguaro Lake kayak tour! The scenery was beautiful and our guides were amazing! They made everything stress free and fun for the whole family. Would definitely book with them again!

This was great! It was well organized and as someone who probably only kayaks once or twice a year it was fun without feeling too intense. It was shorter than 3 hours for our group but still enjoyable and I appreciated that we had a stop for snacks!

What a perfect activity for a family vacation in Phoenix (ages 7 to 42)! Our guides, Teri and Joe, were super knowledgeable and friendly! Would absolutely recommend! 🚣‍♀️💙

Our guide recommended arriving at the Butcher Jones Recreation site early because the parking lot fills up especially on weekends. At 9:30am (10am kayaking) on Sunday, we were already in the overflow lot. We met our guide, Teri, on the shoreline with the kayaks prepped and ready to push off. She provided us with water bottles (souvenir), loaner straps for our sunglasses, flotation vests which are mandatory, dry bags which have a fairly small opening so I was unable to fit my bag in it. (However the front of the sit -upon kayaks have a secure area that rarely gets wet.) Teri briefed us on our adventure and as we paddled along she shared information about Saguro Lake and how it was formed, the flora and fauna on the surrounding cliffs and hills, etc. There was five of us including Teri and we paddled into a cove - our endpoint at around 2.1 miles out - and disembarked and shared a snack and more stories. We headed back from there for a total distance of 4.5 miles. My friend and I were very happy with our overall experience and were thankful for being guided as first timers in this lake. And we can highly recommend Riverbound Sports.

We had a great time paddling the waters of Lake Saguaro with our guide Teri. The scenery was beautiful and we were taken to a secluded beach at the end of a canyon. All the gear was supplied and Teri made it easy to get in and out of the water. She was very knowledgeable of the area and answered our questions. I would highly recommend this tour to everyone.

We had an amazing time on the water of Saguaro Lake. Our guide Teri was took us to a secluded beach through a very beautiful canyon. She is very knowledgeable about the area. I highly recommend this tour.

Our guide was great and friendly. The sights on saguaro lake are beautiful. Have your water proof 📷 ready. We went at a pace good for us. We did not feel rushed. We all had an awesome time.

I enjoyed the entire trip. Especially liked seeing the blue heron and Harris hawk. Teri and Nick were very knowledgeable and handled the group well

Thanks Robert for the great tour so much fun! The views were gorgeous and the weather was perfect!!!
