What is a Float Trip? Our float trip is a unique soft adventure that won't just take you down the river, but will take you back in time. This 2/12 hour historic tour offers an exceptional way to experience history.
Historical events such as the French & Indian war, The Whiskey Rebellion, and the coal / coke industry transpired here, molding our country to what it is today. You will see remnants of these days long past & draw your own conclusions to why this is the most important valley in the early development of our country. Your journey will end in Dawson, where you can stroll the streets & tour the Washington Coal & Coke Headquarters, which have been transformed into a small museum & gift shop.
You won't get Wet! No Physical Involvement! Everyone can do it Designed for the Motorcoach Industry When
