Highly recommend the 4-mile tour if you are in Asheville and looking for something really fun to experience on the French Broad! Our guide Todd was super fun, helpful and made us feel safe and taken care of. Best believe we will be back on the river soon!

Wonderful experience! Our guide Eric, was awesome. Made us all few really comfortable. Expert at what he does, even took pics for us and shared them, when we were done. I would highly recommend this for any beginners.

Great guide! So much fun. Definitely recommend doing a private guided tour for your first time doing SUP. It was so much fun. I almost booked a calm float and that would’ve been really boring. I felt like 4 miles was the perfect amount of time.
About This Deal
Itinerary
Enjoy a 4-mile, guided paddleboard trip down the French Broad River in Asheville. Get local history from a professional guide who will also teach you the strokes and technique for navigating your way down the river. All tours are private--so no paddling as part of a group--and the wide, stable, comfortable boards create an easy, user-friendly experience that first time paddlers can enjoy.
Over the course of the 4-mile tour you'll pass through parkland, forests, and streams while keeping an eye out for local wildlife such as herons, turtles, and deer. See where the Swannanoa River meets up with the mighty, meandering French Broad, which is one of the oldest rivers in the world, as it weaves through the Appalachian Mountains.
Your tour finishes in the River Arts District within walking distance of breweries, restaurants, artisan studios and shops.
