Fun and chill - I went tubing as I had a spare day and looking for something different. I was expecting just a relaxing glide down a river but I was really happy to discover that while it IS that, it is also a bit of excitement with some rapids to overcome. They were not too threatening but enough to make it an exciting ride that is fun for the beginners and experienced. The team of 3 experienced facilitators were very informative and were always there to help and guide us. So despite the rapids, everyone always seemed to feel safe. It is it worth doing. Hopefully I can try the rafting next :)

Fun morning on the river….. - Our family of 4 (with two kids) loved the adventure. We tubed through some class 2 rapids, which was enough for our group. Our guides, Liv and Kate, were fantastic. Would definitely do again the next time we are in town.

River tubing in FNQ is a must do! - What a great morning! It was over too quickly!!!! The water was amazing. Just enough rapids to keep it interesting but not make it a white knuckle river trip! The team of guides were great. Great patience and helpful when getting stuck! Highly recommend.

Beautifully stunning & fun - All Aussie crew who were lovely. The recent flooding made the river too high to rubber ring so instead of cancelling us we went rafting which was fun!!
