Kayaking Saguaro Lake

What do you do when it's hot - you go to water, of course.  Our Scottsdale based guided lake kayaking tours are the perfect solution.  Join us for a relaxing inflatable kayak tour on Saguaro Lake, situated between the rugged Superstition Mountains and the towering Four Peaks. This scenic desert reservoir provides habitat for many important species of wildlife such as bald eagles, desert bighorn sheep, and numerous examples of reptiles and amphibians. This tour is suitable for all ages and ability levels. No previous experience is required.

One of the great things about water in the desert is that it's the most valuable resource so you might see wild animals, including wild horses.  Whether you see animals or not, this is a great way to beat the heat in Phoenix.
