Nothing more relaxing like floating on the French Broad River with your folks in the summer!…read more Highly recommend using Zen Tubing as your rafting service! Staff were really friendly and they made the process as seamlessly easy and quick! You'll park your vehicle in their lot, and then they'll haul you in school buses. Once you get to the end of the float to get off, it gets pretty rocky so make sure you wear your Teva sandals or something that holds grip otherwise you'll be doing a little slip and slidin'. They also offer punch cards as well which honestly is quite a deal! You'll get a float ride free once you've reached an amount of punches on your card. Now that's what I call world class customer service. Thanks Zen tubing!

The river has changed a lot since Helene came through, but so many people have done a lot of hard work to make the area safe and usable again. That being said, the water levels are low in many places which leads to bottoming out on the sand, gravel, or rocks. Lift your bum in these areas and you'll have better luck coasting over them. Everyone had a blast. The tubes stayed inflated and safe. Lifejackets for everyone. Staff was friendly and welcoming. It rained off and on, but we were wet anyway, so it didn't matter. We had fun. There was laughter all day and many memories were made. Thank you.

They have a shorter version and a longer ride. The water temperature was perfect for a warm day. It really cooled us down. We chose the shorter one being as we had plans later in the afternoon. The prices are very reasonable and they have free transportation from the end of the river. Can't wait to come back and do it again.

It is $20/person and $5 for each cooler float. -You will go over to the area to get on the shuttle. It was a little slow but only because they had a huge party to pick up to bring back. -Sky Tubing shuttles you to your starting point, this is where you get your float(s). They have staff members there to connect your float(s) and cooler float, if one was purchased. Then they move the floats around so each person can get in without getting into the water. -It is now time to float away, trip times vary depending on the water level. Our trip lasted 3 hours and you can stop along the way. -When your trip is done staff members will be there to help you get out of the water and a bus will take you back to where you parked. I will have to say my experience with Sky Tubing was way better than it was with Zen Tubing. I highly recommend this company.

For twenty five dollars a person you get a tube, a ride in an old van to a drop off location and…read morepicked up and returned to your vehicle when you complete the trek. No time limit (although I assume you need to be back before they close). Such a great deal! Seven of us (three adults, four kids) reserved our spot over the phone. This required a small down payment. We arrived at our scheduled time, filled in a waiver for each person tubing, sized out a life vest for our six year old and then hopped into a van to go to the dropoff point. On the way to our drop-off the van driver instructed us on the river landmarks that would be important for our safe and timely return. She also gave us a humorous "tour" of the "town" we pass thru on the way to the drop-off. She provided us some straps so we could strap two of the younger riders to an adult. We spent about four hours on the water. The river was wide enough and appointments staggered enough that at no point did I feel crowded or rushed. We stopped at one spot to ride the rapids, eat lunch and swim, we stopped at another to jump off a rock wall into the water. Upon arriving at the pickup spot we snapped some photos (great view) and only waited for about ten minutes until the van to take us back arrived. If you love being on the water or spending time in nature, I'd recommend tubing with Loafers Glory.

They offered us a bench under their apple tree to have lunch while we waited to ride, especially with the heat. The staff was friendly and lively, really getting us excited for tubing. We went down the river and it took us more than two hours, which was great and there were several large rock formations for the kids to climb on while we sail down the river. A nice way to relax, especially after a long hike.

This is an adventure for all ages, I believe.

Outpost is not the address on the website- read the fine print! 2. Fill out all your paperwork online before you arrive! They don't have any signal to do it there and they don't have paper copies. Plus their iPad died for us to do it there. It was a headache! 3. They didn't have enough people working which added to the time we had to wait. The staff were overwhelmed and not able to keep up with everything. There were atleast 20 people behind us in line and I hate to know how long they waited!

After a detailed safety briefing, we were driven to the put in location. After a very relaxing float that included some rapids, we were provided with free photos and video of our adventure.

There was a group about to leave that we could join so it worked perfectly. We filled out the wavers and also rented a Go Pro for our helmet. After that, we got our harness from our two guides. The two guides we had were amazing and so informative and the kept us entertained the entire time. They actually made the experience fun for us. For 80 per person, you get to ride six different lines that range in height, distance, and speed. Before every ride, the guides give safety tips and the best way to enjoy the ride. For a first-time rider, I'm so glad I was in the hands of Canopy Ridge I felt safe and I was never unsure on every line. It also involves some hiking but only a few steps. We enjoyed being in Nature and the weather was perfect. If you are ever in the area of Canopy Ridge Farm is a must.
