River tubing - We were on the Tui Grand Tour with my wife and this adventure tour was on our second day. It was absolutely amazing and super fun. We have never done similar like this before, but it's worth it. During the tubing you can enjoy the fast river rafting and also the slowly chill moments while the river flow is calm. Recommended to wear water shoes and take a waterproof camera (the organizer taking pictures about the tour which are purchesable for extra cost).

Float trip is a high-energy thrill! - We did the tubing trip with these folks. THIS IS NOT A FLOAT TRIP! It’s you sitting in an inner tube going through 5 km of rapids with occasional short float spells. It is a LOT of fun. The guides make sure you are positioned to best get through the rapids, but you need to be aware that you might end up going though them backwards and if you don’t scrunch up your feet and keep your elbows in you could be banged up a bit. The rapids have clearly been curated as there are some suspiciously- straight lines of rocks in places to make sure you stay on the right path down the river. We took the 2:30 trip and there were three guides for four people; earlier in the day you can have a ratio more like 6 guides for 30 people. Is located on the grounds of the hotel of same name.

Highlight of our trip - If you do one thing, this is it! It was AMAZING. Worth every penny. Even getting stuck was fun. You have to wear closed toe shoes. This staff if the best! Some parts of the river are such an adrenaline rush! The age range on our tour was 20ish - 70ish. Bring money for tipping. We were told not to bring any because it will get wet. I felt bad we had no money to tip after such a great experience.

Great Family Fun - Horseback Riding and Tubing - Two families for a total of nine of us did the horseback riding and tubing. Great fun for everyone. Tubing was particularly exciting and the staff was really fun to have around. Would do it again in a heart beat.

Can we do it again!? - This was an amazing experience that I can't wait to come back and do again! The tubing is the right amount of intense and security - some of the rapids are not joke, but you are surrounded by great tour guides who know what they are doing so you're in good hands!
We took a short tour on horseback where we were picked up by the bus to go tubing. After some instructions, we were geared up with life vests and helmets and we were on our way! Water bags for clothes and towels were provided. It was rainy lightly during our tour, but that didn't take away from the experience. Like I said, can't wait to go again!

ExcellentTubing Adventure - This was a FANTASTIC tour!! We began at 1:30 by riding horses down to the river and David was our very pleasant guide. (only wish the horses had a less rocky path to travel)
Then the fun really began - after a brief training session, we put on helmets and life vests and got into our tubes. The rapids were SO fun and easy to navigate. There were plenty of guides to help us along and keep everyone safe. They were all lovely- especially Santos and Rafaella - what wonderful people. The company is very lucky to have them!
Our group was small (about 8 people) and this enabled us to have outstanding attention by the very supportive guides. This was a perfect adventure and I am so very glad we went.

River Tubing - We had a great afternoon on the water. The rapids were quite fast. I was anxious about the trip. The guides did such an amazing job keeping everyone together and safe. This trip is not for babies in any way. Be ready for a thriller people.
