Review for: Half-Day Tubing Experience from Cairns (PM)

Super fun, highly recommended! The staff were all very enthusiastic and friendly. There were six of us in our family, and two who had mobility issues were very well taken care of. Everyone had a great time, and the whole experience was very relaxed and pleasant. There were a few exciting parts, but the water was a little cold, and we had to handle restroom breaks and changing clothes after the activity in a more rustic setting.

It was a fun and relaxing activity for all ages. Most of the river was quite calm at the time; I wasn't sure if it was because of the winter or if it is calm all the time.

Fun day out. Worth reading the reviews first so you know exactly what you’re getting. Pretty chilled out so don’t be expecting anything crazy. Few small rapids in the middle but nothing dramatic. Overall quite enjoyable. 5 star review because it’s exactly as I expected but if I hadn’t read reviews first it might be slightly less

Review for: Half-Day Tubing Experience from Cairns (PM)

It was very helpful that there was a shuttle to the front of the hotel! There is no space to change clothes, so it is better to wear a swimsuit. Also, there is no space to change clothes after the activity, so it is difficult for women to change clothes. I went to the hotel with a towel that I could put on over my swimsuit lol Please bring sandals with heels.

Nice leisurely Saturday morning activity, exactly what I’m after a week long of work conference. Garth and Josh are both friendly and easy going guides.

Great experience.. Our guide Chris is very humourous and we enjoyed floating down the stream. Paddle using your own arms.

Review for: Half-Day Tubing Experience from Cairns (PM)

We were picked up late and dropped off late, so one has to be flexible when booking with this company. The river had many slow spots, I thought the rapids would have been faster. Overall, it was fun and the tour guides had great personalities.

Pick up was on time. All equipment and gears are provided for. It will be good to wear water shoes on this trip. Since there is no changing facilities or toilets available, wear a swimsuit, bring a towel to wipe down and slip On clothings.

Review for: Half-Day Tubing Experience from Cairns (PM)

river tubing was supposed to be a fun activity for family and kids. but it encompasses a certain degree of danger that one have to accept as the tubes movement are primarily controlled by the current and rapids. unfortunately me and my husband both had bruises and cuts due to the bumping onto the tree branches and trunks.
