Paddle to Pints

A Fun & Adventurous Verde Valley Experience

The “Paddle to Pints” tour is aptly named.  Your guided Verde River adventure begins gliding down the magical waters of the wild and scenic Verde River ending with a frosty pint of beer or refreshing glass of wine and lunch at the Rendezvous in Old Town Cottonwood.  The Verde River portion of this chic adventure is approximately three hours in your own ducky (inflatable kayak).  There will be just enough excitement

on the river to make it fun, yet no need to be an experienced kayaker.  After your Verde River adventure and in the comfort of your own vehicle you leisurely cruise through the gorgeous Verde Valley to the Rendezvous in Old Town Cottonwood.
