We had a group of 13 enjoy rafting and kayaking on the French Broad. All loved it! Four did the calm run which was very scenic and peaceful. Our guide (so sorry, can't remember her name) was friendly and very knowledgeable about the area and history of the river. Three did the inflatable kayaks and the others did the white water run. It was a little calm for some of the more adventurous folks but all had a great time. They stopped at a place where they could jump off a cliff into the river. The office staff and guides were friendly. The facilities were clean and even had a nice gift shop. Had an option to purchase pics at the end. The only minor hitch was they were a little unorganized getting everyone signed in, so arrive early. Overall, I highly recommend Blue Heron!More
They went out of their way to add the six of us to their schedule and gave us a private guide and raft on the French Broad River. Fritz let us use, free of charge, a waterproof digital camera. When we returned she downloaded all the photos onto a DVD for us, ALL FREE OF CHARGE! The views were beautiful, Fritz did most of the paddling, although we all did a bit. We got to stop halfway down for snacks and water. All in all it was a truly wonderful experience.
Thanks for writing a review and we're glad you had a good trip. The calm water stretch we do has some great and beautiful views. Hope you can join us again some time.
Great experience riding a raft on a fun river. Blue Her on staff was fun, playful, knew their stuff and went out of their way to make this an enjoyable and entertaining experience. Will do this one again.
Great! Glad you had a good time on the river. Hope to see you again soon. Thanks!
We found this to be a fantastic place for rafting on the French Broad. Our guide Sam was a lot of fun and was very knowledgeable. The facility was very clean, the staff very professional.
Thanks for rafting with us. We really appreciate it. I will pass your comment on to Sam. It will make his day.
Awesome. Professional company. Great guide, Jordan. Quality apparel. Warm water, full day. Perfect for families, young or old.
Thanks for your comments. The warm water is a big plus for sure.
My husband and I had never whitewater rafted before so we were both a bit nervous. After arriving to Blue Heron, all our apprehension turned to excitement! They had EVERYTHING you might need or want for a fun day on the river. From water shoes to sunscreen, they offered it all!. We were extra lucky to have gotten the main guide, Wags, as our rafting guide for the half day trip. We had a blast jumping off the rock, wading in the river and enjoying a delicious lunch on the river bank. We would totally go back and do it again. When we returned we were able to take showers and change into dry clothes in a clean facility. Thank you for an awesome adventure!!!! 5 Stars !!!!
Glad you had a good trip and thanks for the 5 star rating. Wags does a great job and certainly has no shortage of good energy. Thanks again for rafting with us and hope to see you again soon.
