First of all, let me say that it is hard not to give Zaloo's 5 stars. The staff was very friendly and helpful and we had a great time on the river. The equipment was adequate and their facility was clean and organized,. They were ready for us when we arrived and waiting for us on the dock and were very helpful when we finished. BUT, if it is important to you that people around you wear a mask, arrange your own transportation . While the staff always had on masks, we were packed in a van of 11 people with 4 not wearing masks when transported back to our cars. Also, several customers did not wear masks inside the building but we were able to social distance. No one reminded or requested that patrons put their masks on. We were very disappointed in this since the website clearly states masks will be required in the building and in their vehicles. Our grandson has an autoimmune disease so we try to be very careful. We will use this company again, but for now will take two cars and leave one at each end of the trip. Again, great time on the river.

We have been here twice and it was a fun experience both times. It is a self guided river tubing after being dropped off. It is a leisure float down the river. If you do a straight through it is about 2 hours. If bring lunch and stop @ one of the spots on the side of the river it may take 2.5-3 hours. This summer 2019, we went Kayaking and it was also super fun. You drop in @ Zaloo's and they pick you up @ the New River state park. This is on the South Fork of the New River in Ashe County, NC. Well worth the visit.

We visited the Sunday of Labor Day weekend and had a FANTASTIC experience. I am writing a same-day review. We contacted Zaloos via FB messenger Friday (no cell service in the mountains, yay) to ask about a Sunday canoe trip with two older dogs who had never been in a canoe. They were very responsive and helpful. They agreed to book us for early Sunday morning, the first time slot (8 am), and not charge us in advance for the reservation. They agreed that we could let our dogs it it a canoe and try it before we committed to going down the river. SO GENEROUS. We arrived a few minutes early, we were first people there for the day. It was foggy and chilly, but it was okay. They delivered on their promise and let us sit in the canoe with our dogs and figure out how we'd position them and secure them before we agreed to go. Everyone was polite and friendly and professional and patient. They gave clear instructions on where to get out for the pick-up and they were helpful with loading and unloading the dogs from the canoe and in the shuttle van. When we got back there were like 58372027 people there and it was SO BUSY. Even though it was chilly and we had to get up early, being there first and having a special reservation ahead was worth it. I also feel it is important to mention that some staff wore masks, some didn't, and you know, it had zero impact on the service we were provided or our level of comfort/safety. This is an outdoor river adventure outfitter, not a fancy restaurant or grocery store or formal indoor establishment of some kind. I DEFINITELY recommend this, especially if you have a dog. Note: BYO dog life jacket :)

We absolutely loved our experience with Zaloo's! We called ahead of our trip and the wan who answered the phone was incredibly helpful and answered all of our questions. When we arrived for our scheduled visit, the staff was again incredibly helpful and friendly. Our tubing adventure for 5 kids and 6 adults was easy and fun! I would absolutely recommend this place!

Zaloo's came highly recommended. Our group of 9 experienced very easy booking for the 2-3 hour river tubing. Real-time booking via their website is very convenient and reasonably priced. Check-in process was quick and organized. The tubes were great quality - the back rests and cup holders were appreciated. River was very clean. Looking forward to the next trip.
