“It was my birthday and we wanted to do something fun and diffrerent with the kids. We decided to camp and head outdoors. We had heard great things and read wonderful reviews of NOC. We board the raft with Trevor (?), who was knowledgable of the river and history along it. Loaded with tons of "dad jokes", he provided amazing entertainment on our float down river. We all had a great afternoon and such a fun experience. The kids were already talking about heading back next year.”

“Big Joe was an awesome raft guide! Our group loved him. He shared some cool information about the area as we made our way down the rapids. We will definitely be back!!”

“If I could give Nantahala Rafting 6 stars, I would. We booked the tour as a fun activity during a vacation with my husband's family. While we were in the car on the way to the river we learned that my father-in-law had suddenly passed away at his house in Texas. There was nothing we could do. We decided to move forward with the trip because we wanted to distract the kids and frankly, my father-in-law would have been annoyed if we'd cancelled it because of him. The staff could not have been more understanding on an incredibly difficult day. They gave us a few minutes grace on our arrival and the guides were wonderful. The river was beautiful and the head of the rafting program stopped by and checked in with us after the trip while we were eating at the restauraunt (great pizza, btw!). It's hard to make happy memories on a really terrible day, but somehow they did. We will never forget it. Thank you.”
