Tim and Jim are very professional and accomodating to your needs- This was our first time ever river rafting and Tim guided us down the river- telling us about the river and other homes in the area and what a great teacher- i highly recommend going with Sierra Adventures

This was a fun trip that lasted just under 2 hours. My husband and I had a very knowledgeable guide that shared many interesting bits of information about the area and kept us moving smoothly at a nice, easy pace. We had several bump & spins with a few of the more exciting parts to cool us off!

I booked this tour, saying I was a beginner, and was told it was no problem. When I got there, the guy in the office was curt and rude, telling me I was too fat to kayak. I went anyway. The bus we rode in was filthy and without air conditioning, and neither of the men wore masks. They put me in the kayak, saying “we want to make sure you fit” (I fit just fine FFS), and it was humiliating. The “instructor” left me in the boat on the river for 1/2 hour, leaving me to struggle with no guidance. He told me before we left that if I didn’t do what he said, he’d “get pissed.” It was troubling to be sure, but I was all in with no phone, my purse and keys left behind in the office in a basket (no lockers, also troubling). So the “instructor” came back, and without giving me a demonstration and zero information on safety, we were off. He was immediately angry with me because I was struggling under his inadequate instructions, saying “my boss told me you were going to be trouble.” He was continually yelling at me, and when I said “ok,” acknowledging him, he told he told me to stop saying “ok.” When I didn’t he started mimicking me like a child, saying “Ok” to every question I asked. I told him he was inappropriate and he told me I was annoying and obviously had a learning disability. He was weird and unstable and I felt super unsafe. At one point I tried to make my way to the shore and get help, but I was stuck. He was nice one minute and totally unhinged the next. He started towing me, and it seemed like he was purposely ramming me into rocks and trees; my arm got sliced and at one point he got me stuck in rocks so badly the boat flipped and I got dumped. I got back in (he was screaming at me the entire time)’and we kept going. He said stay in the middle but we were on the sides of the river constantly. When we got back I told the guy at the office that the guide was mean and unprofessional, and definitely not for beginners, and he blamed me, once again, because I was overweight. I thought this would be a fun birthday adventure. It was not.

Do not waste your time owner is extremely rude and verbally and physically abusive. We were on the river for an hour and he screamed at us telling us we were supposed to be back an hour about . Then at the finish he ripped the tube out of my daughters hand and told us never to come back. Worst experience of my family’s life. WE WANT A REFUND. RIP OFF

As part of our bachelor party last weekend, Jim and Tim took us kayaking down the Truckee river. From booking and scheduling the trip (very affordable) to first class gear and experience, kayaking down the river is the perfect fun active adventure for any group of friends. They took photos, provided snacks and beers after. This trip is a perfect mix of seeing beautiful river, and a little adventure with the small rapids. So glad we booked this trip, we'll be back

Overall this is a great experience. Would recommend this to anyone who wants a casual float down the river with friends. Our guide, Tim, has been doing this for a long time and you could tell by the way he navigated us down the rapids. The scenery was nice and the water was crystal clear. Only improvements would have been:. Reservation process, asking guests if they would like photos, more history telling, and setting more expectations on the adventure. For example we took a 10 minute ride up river, class 2 rapids, start times, our raft fit 4 guests and our guide, and we couldn't really bring anything other than water with us. All that said - we had a great time and would recommend you do this for a good time.

My friends and I were in Reno and wanted to kayak down the Truckee river. This outfit would take you about 5 mi upriver and drop you off with a guide. The guide, Tim, was not much of a guide. I wish that we had done the unguided trip, which was much less expensive. My issue is with Tim, not with this company. Tim was in a raft with 2 girls and there were about 5 single kayakers. A guide is supposed to be there for Safety but Tim went so far ahead in the raft that when one of the kayakers fell out, it was up to the rest of us to help him get back into the kayak! Tim also said a couple of inappropriate things on the bus ride to the drop off point. The kayaking itself was great and would not hesitate to do this again with Sierra Adventures - but I would opt for the unguided tour.
