Take the family on a winding journey down gentle rapids in comfortable inner tubes — a great way to discover the natural beauty of the region. After a safety briefing from your river guide, you will be taken to your launch site and given inner tubes. Then slip into the cool water, settle in your tube and wind your way downstream.
