Unique outdoor experience! - This was such a fun and unique outdoor experience. The raft ride was comfortable and relaxing and a great way to visit different Asheville breweries. Our guide Tim was super friendly and full of corny jokes to make us laugh. A fabulous experience!

Boozy Cruise with 6 Beauties - A perfect Asheville experience! Tim our guide was great. Kept us entertained with jokes, music, and had just a fun great vibe. We were with another group of 5 which worked out well as they also were there to have fun. Loved the 2 nd and 3 rd spot. Great drinks including cocktails at stop 2. Brewery at last stop had delicious food trucks. Come visit Asheville ASAP. They need tourism business right now and the people here are amazing!!

Great idea! Keep great company! - What made this trip amazing was the people we were in the boat with a week as our guide! She was very informative, and it felt like she was just one of the gang. Thanks to this trip, we found places we probably would not have seen without this trip. We went to the art district and had some great beer and BBQ. We placed our order on the boat, and the food was ready when we got there and didn't have to wait in the long line. It was a great trip that ended art New Belgium Brewery. Highly recommend it, but then again, it all depends on the company you are with! Make it fun!

Floating and partying. - My gang of 11 fraternity brothers had a great time. Cody was very knowledgeable and fun to be around. The stops were cool and spaced out just right.

Unique float and brew tour! - Two of us near retirement were part of a family of 5 with adult kids and friends. Had a blast! Cody was so helpful (esp. when the friend fell twice). Went to 3 breweries: Wrong Way, The Wedge and New Belgium. Would highly recommend for adults for a unique brew tour!

Best Activity in Asheville! - We did the floating bar crawl during my sister's bachelorette party weekend, and it was the highlight of our entire trip!! It's such a unique experience to travel to different bars on a raft, and Cody was such an awesome, kind, and fun guide. Highly recommend this tour for anyone - and don't worry, you won't get wet unless you want to - or if you happen to fall in the water haha!

Absolutely Fabulous, Would do again - 100% recommend this experience to anyone who wants to have fun, see the views, and discover local beer. We had so much fun exploring Asheville, bar hopping, and of course you can’t forget about the rafting! Walker was the absolute best guide and made the entire day so enjoyable!

Awesome experience! - We did this for my sister’s birthday and had such a fun time! We wanted to do something unique and this was definitely it. Walker was our guide and he made sure we had a great time. The only thing that got a little wet was some people’s shoes depending on where they sat in the raft. The food and drinks at the stops were really good and we would definitely do this again and highly recommend!

Ehh - Our bar guide was fantastic. That’s about the only thing about it that was wonderful. We never stopped or really got into the water. When you think of a pub crawl, whether on water or on land, you do think you’re stopping at a couple different bars, one was at the end that we had to walk to, the other one was closed so the only one we did get to go it was a good experience but $78 for one out of three. And then we were told we were provided a cooler and the people that were with us ended up making a makeshift cooler just so that we could have something cold to drink on this float. Would not recommend
