Half Day Cairns River Tubing

This is a great activity for the whole family. The minimum age for the river tubing is 5 years of age so the whole family can enjoy this adventure.

The river tubing is also a half day activity and it is available in the morning and afternoon so very convenient for those with limited time in Cairns.

There are three rivers where the tubing is conducted and they are chosen depending on the water levels and conditions on the day of travel. This makes sure clients get the best experience possible. The rivers are Behana Gorge, Mulgrave River or Little Mulgrave River.

The tubing is fully supervised by a minimum of two river guides. The guides are very well trained and they participate in regular ongoing river rescue and First Aid training, which ensures high safety standards on every tour.

In this activity all equipment and instruction are provided. No previous tubing experience is necessary.

Come and have a great time with your family and friends at the river tubing.
