Go Tubing in Austin's Downtown Spring River
Overview
This is a private tubing experience for groups of 10-15 people. We are the only company that offers tubing in Downtown Austin. What sets our trip apart from competitors is we are going on the spring river created by Barton Springs pool. This means that you won't waste 4 hours on a bus and you can make the most of your time in Austin.
Every minute of this tour you will be in the water, and when you get out, you'll be just a few minutes away from restaurants, bars, etc.
Furthermore, you can choose to stay and linger in the area after the tour and continue the water fun unlike the competitors who will herd back onto a bus and make you sit through traffic for hours to get back to Austin.
The float is slow. Highlights are watching the bridge jumpers and rope swingers and ending at Party Island.
What's Included
- We provide tubes, dry storage, a cooler with ice, and transport back to the starting point if needed

What To Expect
You're in town for 2 days. Why waste 4 hours on a hot bus when you can tube the spring river near downtown Austin and make the most out of the rest of your day? Book this tube float trip and maximize your stay.
Here are the main benefits of booking this trip. We are floating near downtown Austin so less time on the road and you're definitely not sharing a bus with 50 other people. The river is slow and relaxing. No rapids. For the adventure seekers there is a bridge jump and plenty of rope swings. The springs make an excellent swimming hole. When the trip is over there is still plenty of fun to have without a tube and no bus to catch so you can hangout longer at Zilker Park or Barton Springs or in the river you just tubed!
There is what I can only describe as "Party Island" at the end of the float which is a sand bar where hundreds of people hangout in the middle of the river on the weekends.
This trip is nice because you can make it what you want from family friendly to Bachelor's in Paradise.
When you book with me, my auto reply comes with a "must do in Austin list" so you can make the most of your trip!
