6 women ages 64 and 65 rafted with Alexis on 28AUG2017. She was superb! We laughed, we paddled, and we had a grand time! We were all first time river rafters and Alexis (and the entire staff) did a great job. Would highly recommend! Thanks!

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!

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.

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.

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.
