Wonderful experience. Wonderful experience. The people working the experience were very helpful and friendly. We asked to leave early and they said no problem and made it happen.Dolph SSeptember 4, 2022Laid back fun in the sun. A great time with friends floating down the New River. We got 10 friends together over Labor Day weekend and hooked our tubes together. The staff was helpful. Signing up was a breeze online. I would highly recommend.Georgia MSeptember 3, 2022Beauty and fun all in one place My friends and I haven’t done tubbing east of the Mississippi before. Was not sure what to expect. We all had an amazing time! So peaceful, with the slowness of the river, surrounded by the mountains all while having a great time chatting it up. We also rented the cooler tube. It held our cooler and dry packs. For sure you want a pair of water shoes. Couple areas you may have to walk. Would do it again!Erin SAugust 16, 2022Great fun Entertaining from beginning to end.

From comedy and music on the bus … to rapids, water cannons & water buckets on the raft, High Mountain Expeditions did a phenomenal job from beginning to end. Our guide Dalton was super entertaining, knowledgeable and a total pro. Even though we were lame and didn’t want to jump in the artic water (we’re used to Myrtle Beach water temps, lol) he rolled with it and still made every minute entertaining and fun. Thank you to everyone on the High Mountain Expeditions team for making our day great 👍🏼Greg and Jen MAugust 1, 2022Professional and Super Fun Rafting Adventure Guide and Quality Company!
