River Raft Resort (Tubing the Guadalupe) Description
Locals who venture to this meandering river know it as Mother Nature's water ride. Warm days, the water teems with kids and grownups floating along in tubes, enjoying the scenery and the water's steady flow. The full Guadalupe trips take a few hours, with outfitters on hand to help figure out the right route (some run faster than others). Feel free to stop for detours -- like a picnic on the river bank (an extra tube can be rented to bring the cooler), or a Tarzan leap from one of the tree swings.
Kid Tips
Toddlers & Pre-K: Children must be age 5 and up. Young children are advised to rent a tube with a bottom, ensuring they don't fall through. Life jackets are provided.
Planning Notes
- Pick a hot day. The water hovers in the upper 60s, meaning it's chilly. On a warm day, it's refreshing. On a cold day, not so much.
- Beware rough water. Rough currents as well as other weather conditions can affect operations, so call ahead to ensure they're open.
- Protect your footsies. Water shoes are recommended.
- Check out other crafts. River Rafts also rents rafts, inflatable and traditional kayaks.
