“We had an amazing time on our adventure a few weeks ago. Everyone from my 44 year old husband to our 10 year old daughter and our two teenage sons had a great time. Doogan, our guide, was amazing and made it so fun and safe for all. My husband is deaf and the whole NOC team did a great job making accomodations to ensure his safety and full participation. I was glad I made everyone wear their waterproof jackets because the river is cold, but the guides also made that very clear before hand. We also ate at the restaurant afterwards and it was very good with quick seating and service.”

“We had a great time. We’re glad we choose Nantahala. We felt safe, our guide was fun and the whole facility was clean. We ate at the River End restaurant after our trip and it was delicious. Serviced was also great! We would definitely recommend and return.”

“Our Raft guide was EXCELLENT! He continually interacted with us down the river. He provided us with History of the River which was very interesting. He was not your normal Raft Guide. He was 70 years old and a retired Postal Worker. We absolutely loved his personality. He made the trip very enjoyable and I hope when we come back we have him as our guide.”

“I cannot say enough about this positive experience. I (46 F) rafted with my daughters (17,13) and my SIL and daughter (10). It was fantastic. Anna was our guide and I wish we tipped her more. She was so kind and engaging. The kids were all impressed after each rapid. And Anna was a great resource for our questions and helped ease us all into the fabulous ending.”
