Asheville Tubing Adventure
Description
This is hands down the best tubing trip in Asheville! This trip leaves from our beautiful three acre outpost located right across the French Broad River from the outskirts of the historic Biltmore property. We believe that we have crafted the perfect length float, typically between two and three hours, to relax, soak up some sun, and have a great time with friends and family. We keep all of our trips small so that every trip feels private and special. After your tube, we bring you back to our outpost where you can have a cold drink at our bar or enjoy live music and games on the weekend.

We had such a good time on our tubing trip. Check-in was easy, they sent you the waivers online ahead of time and there is place to store your car key and/or small valuables, if needed. Once you were ready and it was time, you were given a brief description of what to expect and where to go on the river. Ask for a cooler tube if you are bringing a small cooler. Wear plenty of sunscreen, bring some drinks, a hat, and have a relaxing time on the French Broad River. Our trip took us about 2.5 hours. There is a bus that picks you up and takes you back to where we started. There is a place to change at the beginning and they have you check out when you get back. The staff is really friendly!
Booked a tubing run weeks prior. The day of the reservation it was raining and the temps had dropped to the 60's. Weather was terrible. I called and asked to refund my $60. They said no and I would only get a voucher for future use. I was travelling with my son and wouldn't be back for who knows how long. Very disappointed!
It was not as expected, wrong instruction given, estimated time for the ride went a lot longer then what we were told, got bad sunburn No instruction given how to navigate the river while the wind was blowing against us! We ended up pulling the tube swimming in the river
We had a great time. The guides were very nice and explained to us what to expect as we floated down the river. They were there at the end waiting to pick us up and helped each of us one by one to get out of the water safely and efficiently. Would definitely do this tubing again.
This was our second time and we really enjoyed it. The only thing we would change is more bathrooms and changing areas. If that can’t be changed, maybe a lowering of the admission price since other places have that and charge the same amount.
The crew and arrangements were fine but this was the slowest tubing experience we had ever had-the water was barely moving and we paddled quite a bit to keep moving along-wouldn’t really recommend it much in August when we were there
We had a group of nine adults and we had a great time floating down the river! It was a beautiful day and the staff was extremely helpful.
We had the absolute best time, we wanted to do something fun yet relaxing while on our anniversary trip, we floated down 3 miles of beautiful water , saw wildlife on the shore, we DID take our phones & had no issues with a nice plastic bag/ zipper pouch. Tube is so comfortable we were literally laying back entire time, had a few fun spots where the water gets wavy & feet get splashed , tied our tubes together & also offered floats for your cooler!!! Passed a few awesome bridges, we would have done it today if we didn’t have other plans! Best ride back on the coolest bus that’s there waiting for you! No issues what so ever, definetly go with these folks ! Best tubing experience ever !
Nice way to spend a couple of hours. Very slow moving down approximately 3 miles of river. We did get rained on but otherwise had a great time with adult children.
Asheville Tubing was a super fun trip. I highly recommend. The organization running it did a great job providing high quality tubes, easy pick up. We went on the 10:30am trip so the weather was more comfortable.
