Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for the paddleboard tour on the Cumberland River?

A: There's no strict age limit, but it's generally recommended for ages 10 and up. Kids need to be able to paddle and follow instructions, so it’s a good idea to check with the guide if you're taking younger children. Just make sure to bring a life jacket that fits if they are under 12!

Q: What should we wear for the paddleboarding tour?

A: Dress comfortably! Athletic wear or swimsuits work well since you might get splashed. Don’t forget sunblock and a hat—it's Tennessee and the sun can be strong. Water shoes or sandals that strap on are a good choice too. Just avoid cotton as it gets heavy when wet!

Q: What happens if it rains on the day of our tour?

A: They usually monitor the weather closely. If it's just light rain, they may still go out, but if it’s a storm, they’ll likely reschedule. You can always check with Big Willies to confirm their cancellation policy. It's good to keep your schedule flexible!

Thinking about booking the Paddleboard Tour in Nashville - any tips?

Hey everyone! I'm considering gifting my sister the guided paddleboard tour on the Cumberland River. I saw it’s about 90 minutes long and includes a guide, which sounds great! Any tips on what to expect or how difficult it is for a first-timer? She’s pretty active but has never paddleboarded before. Thanks!

Did the Paddleboard Tour last weekend – so much fun!

Just got back from the guided paddleboard tour on the Cumberland River, and it was amazing! The views were gorgeous and the guide was super chill. It was perfect for beginners like us; we felt safe and had the best time. Definitely recommend bringing water shoes!
