Whitewater Rafting on the Tuckasegee River


Welcome to Dillsboro River Company, providing family-friendly whitewater rafting on the Tuckasegee River, just outside of Dillsboro, Sylva, and Bryson City, North Carolina. The Tuckasegee is the ideal river for first-time rafters, families with young children (minimum age limit is 4), and those who want more of a relaxing river trip with warmer water and the milder Class I & II rapids. ​

2018  Open daily
         Last day will be September 3

Great way to spend the day!
Our group of 9 had a wonderful time tubing the Tuck yesterday. We had teens and adults with varying levels of adventure experience, and everyone had fun. It was a high water day, so we were on the "high adventure" tubing, self guided trip. We noticed that most others were in canoes or rafts, but we enjoyed the laziness of tubing. Our family linked our tubes together so we were a "floating island" and enjoyed splashing and talking. I would suggest going down the rapids in single file. We tried to go down the rapids as an island, but a few of us got toppled over. This wouldn't have happened going down single file. If you have littles, a boat would probably suit your family better, or go down on a low water day. We would do this river trip again in a heartbeat, however!

Awesome
The rafting was awesome. Clay did an incredible job as well as the team at riverside. Would highly recommend for a family trip. Be sure to keep an eye out for the bald eagle.

Fun Afternoon!
We had 5 adults and a 5 year old and 10 year old on a float down the Tuck guided by Emily. We had a lot of fun, our guide knew her stuff and was very funny. Jumping off the rock was awesome.
Would do it again!
