This is hands down the best tubing trip in Asheville! This trip leaves from our beautiful three acre outpost located right across the French Broad River from the outskirts of the historic Biltmore property. We believe that we have crafted the perfect length float, typically between two and three hours, to relax, soak up some sun, and have a great time with friends and family. We keep all of our trips small so that every trip feels private and special. After your tube, we bring you back to our outpost where you can have a cold drink at our bar or enjoy live music and games on the weekend.

From wall-to-wall, it’s a roving trip through town to uncover the best of Asheville’s under-the-radar street art, graffiti, murals, and more. Get creative and book your tour today!
