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.

Love the conveyor belt that takes you back up to the top of the hills; that made the experience so much easier to do. There is a nice fire pit outside to warm up between snow tubing runs. Two hours was the perfect time to book for a leisurely but fun tubing pace. Would recommend bringing waterproof gloves and sunglasses for the snow glare. Otherwise, have fun here. At the end of the session, when you return your tube, you get some marshmallows to roast in the fire pit. Loved this place and had so much fun!

We took our toddler today for the first time and she absolutely loved it. Making a reservation online was simple and easy.

There are restrooms on site, a little shack serving hot cocoa and doling out marshmallows to roast once you're done tubing. The slope isn't too steep, but it's a fun activity for anyone (especially these Floridians).

If you are looking for a 1/2 day or full day to raft on the French Broad this is a great place to…read moreuse for your outing. Our guide, Tim, was the best. He was very knowledgeable about the history of where we were at, had some great stories to share as we rafted, and had the BEST sense of humor. This made our 1/2 day adventure that much more exciting. Your guide is really what makes or breaks your rafting experience and I could not have been any happier so thumbs up to USA Raft!!!! This place can and will accommodate just about any situation. I had family in from Texas and we had a participant that was paraplegic. No worries here they made accommodations for him and honestly probably enjoyed the trip the most however we all had the best time and will do the full day with lunch on our next adventure out. Kids of all ages will love the 1/2 day adventure and this leg of the river is a great starter for anyone that is starting out nothing too difficult.

Me and my absolute boys I met 3 days ago went on this tubing excursion and my life will never be…read morethe same. This bro soak had everything: bros, tubes, beers, water, rocks, thrills (small rapids), and more. On the way there, I suggested we stop for sunscreen. I took a considerable amount of shit for this (looking at you, Lance - thanks for driving though). Lance brought me to a CVS and I got 3 sunscreens: spray, cream, face. I lent the spray to Eddy and never saw it again. The cream was confiscated at the airport for being too large. I still have the face one and wear it everyday to remember my absolute boys whomst I love. Most people besides me got insane sunburn, I remain smug about this to this day. Anyway, the tubing was great. I would consider it a team building activity. On the way to the water, the handle on the cooler I was carrying got detached and the beers/ice went everywhere but nobody made fun of me. This meant a lot to me because most would consider me to be on the sensitive side and I felt like an absolute loser AT FIRST until I realized that my boys accept me no matter what. So we got on the water, tied up, floated, listened to music. It was truly v Zen. We laughed, cried, sang. We were at the mercy of The River; I believe it deemed us worthy. The river/spiritual guides say that the graffiti bridge marks 30-40 minutes left. This is not true. The water basically stopped moving so it was like an hour plus. We all got separated but reunited on shore and got sick tacos from White Duck Taco. Neil and I got like coconut margs and they slapped. One thought I had is that it's kinda weird that they sell dry bags and other tubing related necessities at the finish line and not where you drop off your car. Like we got to the end and I see this shop and I'm like damn I wish we could've purchased this stuff BEFORE my adventure. That's my only gripe. I will take my other friends here and test their resolve. I don't believe they have what it takes, but now I know to let The River be the one to judge

If you wanted to take a phone, don't get a fancy dry bag; use a ziplock bag. This is not white water rafting. The trip took just a little less than 2 hours. The business was affected by the hurricane, so they need your business.

Jordan and Nate greeted us upon our arrival and they were awesome; friendly, informative and helpful. Their facilities were immaculate - we were so impressed with their clean bathrooms and changing area. They provided everything we could need: shoes, fleeces for warmth, wet jackets, and - of course - helmets. They gave us a choice for how we wanted to experience the river: scenic/relaxing or high energy. This helped ensure our group had a fantastic time. The river was gorgeous and the rafting was fun, without being strenuous. The lunch stop was great and the food spread of sandwiches, chips, carrots & hummus, oranges and cookies was delicious. We had an amazing time in our trip and would highly recommend Blue Heron for anyone wanting to raft the French Broad River.
