Fabulous Experience - My husband found this on Trip Advisor and we had a wonderful time. We were a party of five- four adults (one 21 y. o.) and a teenager. The tour was relaxing, the driver and tour guide/owner were terrific. We visited several water falls and the highlight was my 70 year old husband, reliving his youth going down Sliding Rock with the two kids. The tour price included admission to Sliding Rock and a $20.00 per person credit for lunch at a creek-side restaurant, The Pavilion Restaurant, where the food was delicious. It was a great way to spend the day. I would highly recommend this tour if you are visiting Hendersonville or Asheville, NC
