Shuttle Services 

Our kayak taxi service is for folks who are bringing their own gear (kayak, SUP, canoe).  We shuttle before your river trip so you will paddle back to your takeout.  If this is your first time, keep in mind this is a north flowing river!

We offer tube shuttles as well! Meet at 704 Riverside Drive and get a ride back to your car.

Overnight Shuttles

In addition to our daily trips, we also provide shuttles to designated drop-off locations along the French Broad Paddle Trail, maintained by local nonprofit Mountain True. The shuttle reservation is good for up to 4 people and all your personal gear, and we can accommodate groups up to 16. This is a do-it-yourself expedition, so head to Mountain True’s website http://frenchbroadpaddle.com to plan your route and reserve your campsites.

Campsite reservations are required to book an overnight shuttle and/or rental. Any equipment rentals needed will be booked separately. Please call to book.
