Brought my 3 boys out for some birthday fun zip lining this morning. The boys and I had the best time and they are still raving about it asking when we can come back! Matt and Tristan (I hope I got their names right) were fantastic guides and made the boys feel super confident in what we were doing. We will definitely be back to try out the other adventures another day soon!Birthday boy thanks yall for the best birthday trip he's had yet! His words lol.

We spent the weekend enjoying their cabins, ziplining and we took on the challenge of the ropes course. The bathrooms were nice and clean, and the showers were hot. We had 10 boys and 4 adults from Troop 847 (Spotsylvania Va) and they made sure that we had a great scout-friendly experience. The young men were taught how to safely use the equipment, but the guides kept it fun and encouraged the young men to challenge themselves! Will definitely be planning to use this company again!

Zip Lining was a fantastic experience. Abby and Logan made us all feel safe but also never get too nervous. Best guides ever. We had so much fun and they made us feel very welcome. Great people who love their job. Couldn’t ask for better guides and a better time.

I absolutely love it!! The staff was super friendly, and we were all laughing and cracking up. It was just such an amazing experience to be able to go. Anyone that goes should definitely do the tires because it really challenges you but it's worth it.

We had a fabulous experience rafting with the Harpers Ferry Adventure Center. It is a top-notch operation, and our guide Chris was great! Not only does he have a library of jokes to tell he also has a wealth of knowledge of the history of the area and the local wildlife. Given the lack of rain this summer the river has been lower than normal but given Chris's 18 years of experience he was still able to take us down the more fun route which travels both the Shenandoah and Potomac Rivers. The trip itself was great but the day was topped off with fabulous views from the outside area of the brewery owned and operated by the Adventure Center located and on the property. Chris is not only a great guide but had great recommendations for the food we should try and the area of the brewery where we could get a great view of the Potomac just beyond the historic town of Harpers Ferry. I would highly recommend Chris and Harpers Ferry Adventure Center if you are considering a rafting experience.

We had logan and Tristan as guides. Poor guys had our women's group of six. They were awesome. Very patient with us. They made our trip very fun. Thank you guys! I would have love to do the 2nd level of ropes course but could not get up that straight pole. I feel like they should offer steps to it. Or if there was something behind me like a wall, I could have made it. Food for thought.. none the less. Us 6 ladies had a great time

Easy to use and enjoy ropes course with plenty of challenges for thrill seekers along with a much easier section for those who are afraid of heights. Plenty of well experienced and well caring staff members.

We went white water rafting in August. The water levels weren't very high but we still had a blast! It was totally worth doing. Every staff we spoke to was very nice and our guide, Charlie, is the BEST!! He was so knowledgeable, super friendly, an all around fun. We will be coming back next year.

Had a great time!!! Went twice! Parked, they offer life vest and tubes then they shuttle you to put in location took about 2 hours to float down to take out location (big orange hvac sign). Very friendly in the little hut where you pay, and very friendly where you get tubes. Will definitely go again. Was on a Sunday 50$ for everything 30$ if you bring your own tube.

We had a blast! Chris was our guide and seemed very knowledgeable. The river was low due to the drought but it didn't stop us from having a blast. We rafted and zip lined. Both were great! The brewery on site was wonderful as well with a great view!

Our group of 4 had the absolute best time flat water tubing! The team was all incredibly nice, helpful, and contributed to the great experience. We 100% plan on doing it again. Sarah was particularly very sweet and drove us separately after our group didn’t fit on the main bus!Be mindful of the water level because we were walking through rocks to avoid getting stuck a good bit and water shoes are definitely recommended

We had a great time on the zip line course at the Harpers Ferry Adventure Center. We did the 9 am tour to avoid the summer heat. The tour guides did an excellent job explaining everything and keeping safety a priority. Will definitely return again soon. It was a lot of fun! Thank you to Jack, Matt, Zander, and Colin who led the zip line tour. We may be 65 and 60 years old but still enjoy getting out and doing things that excite you.

The best experience ever. I am horrible with names but our guide was the sweetest girl in the group. The main guy Chris is hilarious and every single other guy in his group yesterday afternoon. They all are humorous, respectful and very informative. They made the experience 20/10. I will definitely go back.

Alex was our Guide during rafting💕I even said I was the only one English speaker that I will translate to the other guys and he was patient enough to pause and give me time to explain to my group in Spanish😊 If your are looking to have a great time please ask for him!! He will make you laughing and is very knowledgeable about history and the area🫶🏻 it was my first time rafting and it was a blast. He also recommended the Brewery and I was not disappointed I loved the beet cheese 🧀💖 I will visit again💕

We went white water tubing here with a party of 10 people and had blast. The initial bus ride to the drop off point was a bit long but they sent us in right away. The entire trip down stream took about 2 hours. The water level is a bit low and towards the end the water does get fairly shallow and you need to be careful with the slipper rocks. The white water wasn’t intense at all with it maybe passing as a category 1 not the 3-4 as noted but that was also due to the low water levels. Definitely pack sunscreen and water shoes and you’ll have a great time

This adventure center is very well organized and safe. Loved it.Just make sure before coming for water activities you are wearing proper shoes and you have phone and wallet bags that can be attached to you at all time. Don't lose your stuff in the water...

I normally do not write reviews but A group of us went for my boyfriend’s 29th birthday and had a blast. Bella and Kayden were the absolute best Zipline instructors. They were fun, personable and informative with our instructions. We did the Zipline/White water Tubing package and enjoyed the whole day. The facilities were clean, friendly staff, and the team were very accommodating to our requests even when they didnt have to. Definitely want to come back!

Such a great and full day for our family! Would highly recommend! We did ropes course and rafting. Patrick was awesome with the ropes! He was helpful and so patient. My 10 year old was not feeling the 3rd level fall-but really wanted to do it. Patrick really encouraged him in the best way to jump to it! We had a break in between and the Harpers Ferry Brewery next door was an added bonus we could walk to easily (we went back after too). We ended the day rafting with Liam as our guide. What an experience! He was very friendly, funny and confident on the water. He went out of his way for us to get the most out of the rafting experience. Such a great day-we all really enjoyed ourselves.
