Why have I not done this before? - What a fun and exhilarating experience! I've lived in this area 6 years and have not taken advantage of this adventure - shame on me! Captain Emily was just amazing: skilled, knowledgeable, fun and adorable! We took about an hour excursion and saw Douglas Dam, islands, a cave, and plenty of wildlife including Bald Eagles, Blue Heron, cormorants, deer, turtles, and more. I loved that Emily gave us history and wildlife information along the way through the headset; she allowed us awesome views of the animals while respecting their habitat and tranquility. Her skill and excellent familiarity with the French Broad River made our group of gal-pals completely confident in her hands. I can't wait to go again and take my husband.

Great experience - It was my first time in a boat, but the captain made it so fun and great.. My Wife and I had so much fun, and we’ll definitely be back anytime we have a chance to do so.
