Go Tubing in Austin’s Downtown Spring River

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.

We will be under the highway bridge at the water's edge. I have a white truck and white trailer and a lot of boats already in the water. Reminder to watch the meet up video!

Because this is a sunset based tour and because the bats' habits adapt to the current weather, the actual start time of your tour should be considered approximate. You need to be flexible by + or – 30 minutes and the actual start time will be updated daily in the google docs link below.

This link tells you everything you need to know about tonight's tour and will be updated daily to reflect the start time and photo link for the night.
