This was my 3rd trip white water rafting but first time with High Mountain Expeditions. They were awesome! Very friendly and helpful staff! i had a great time and felt safe and prepared. The bus ride even stopped at a gas station for snacks and drinks on the way home. :)

We are from the flatland of Florida and were a little nervous about white water rafting. The folks at High Mountain Expeditions were friendly and helped us feel comfortable with what we were going to encounter. Our guides were Bill, Nathan and Megan. Everyone stayed in the raft and had a blast going down the river. It was a beautiful... More

Loved this trip last year and would have loved it this year with one exception.The family we had to share our raft with had a crying,screaming spoiled 3 year old who didnt like getting wet. Part of this adventure is interacting with other boats in water fights and because of him we were left out of a lot. I will... More

I can't speak for a group with younger children, but as a group of six 21 year olds, we had an absolute blast. Our guide, "wild" Bill, made sure that we got our money's worth. We were able to hit three class IV rapids that had "high possibilities" of flipping the raft-- and guess what we did! The fun of... More

Went on the half day rafting trip on the Watauga River and had a fabulous time! The river wasn't too challenging but that was exactly what we were looking for. Our trip started out with lunch being served after we reached our destination - an unexpected and nice touch. The guides were incredible! It was obvious they love what they... More

We decided to go tubing on my granddaughter's last day in North Carolina, so we drove to High Mountain Expeditions. The day was perfect, tubing was so lazy and laid back, and we had a great time. The guide took us to the drop off point, giving us landmarks on the way back so we would know where we were.... More

We were visiting the Boone area from the UK and chose this company based on the tripadvisor reviews and what we read on their website. We also liked the fact that they transported us to the river in Tennessee whereas other companies make you drive there yourself. We chose the Watauga river as our youngest child is only 6 and...

We have done the Watagua rafting trip several times with this company but July 25th was our first time on the Nolichucky! We had a terrific experience. Josh, our guide, was very pleasant and professional. The water was high and we had several class four and many three rapids. Our family of six would recommend this trip to anyone interested... More

We had an excellent time rafting with the crew of High Mountain Expeditions on the Nolichucky River on 7/20/12. We had an unfortunate accident with a family member early in the trip, no fault of the guides. They were well organized, well trained, and provided first class care. The guide Billy stayed with us until 7:30 that night until we... More
