Local Activities

Kayak The Colorado
Located in Marble Canyon, AZ, we are only miles from Lee’s Ferry just downstream of Horse Shoe Bend–an epic kayak spot. KTC rents kayaks and “backhauls” back upstream to the dam for a fun kayak day or overnight on the river.

We have the best gear, kept in the best shape–everything you need to play safely on the Colorado. Tell us what you want, we’ll set it up and get you launched. The only responsibility you have is to have a great day! We take care of everything so you can have fun!

What People Are Saying

“Such a cool place! Has a lot of history and the new owners are currently updating the place while still trying to keep it's old charm. It's comfortable, clean, in a great location if you're going to Marble Canyon, Grand Canyon, etc. Everyone is super friendly and helpful - they have a bar and pool table so people tend to hang out in the lobby and it feels social. They offer a fun kayaking experience down the Colorado River that I highly recommend. It was one of the highlights of our road trip!” - Tara
