Combine two iconic experiences in one day: walk the Hoover Dam Bypass Bridge—soaring nearly 900 feet above the Colorado River for breathtaking dam views—before launching kayaks from Willow Beach into majestic Black Canyon. Guided by local experts, you learn about the river’s history, snap incredible photos, spot local wildlife, and enjoy a catered lunch on a secluded canyon beach. The day finishes as you paddle into Emerald Cave, where sunlight transforms the water into a vibrant, emerald green glow—a seamless blend of history, adventure, and natural wonder.
