"The beauty and serenity of the Grand is the biggest surprise. I can't believe I'm less than an hour from Toronto and in a setting like this!"
Tubing: Just $40 + HST: We launch daily from 10:30 to 11am.
You’ll journey for hours down 8km of the fabulous Grand River. Tubing is a bit more adventurous and it's for reasonably fit individuals who want a slightly more active experience.
You can float with the current but you can also criss-cross the river and explore the islands. Tubes are also known as Solo Rafting. They’re stable, comfortable and suitable for fit beginners.
Tubes come with kayak paddles so they’re steerable and you can discover more of the river. Don’t rush – it’s a very pretty river so sit back, relax & enjoy. You probably found us by looking for Tubing Near Me - that’s almost always us & we want you to have a fun day. Tubes have some room for snacks and beverages.
They're so comfortable that guests sometimes fall asleep.
Weight limit is 250 pounds.
FREE taxi back to our parking / launch site is included.
Just Imagine
Fun, Thrills, Adventure, Friends.
Our river current will float you through kilometers of protected Eagle Habitat, Osprey nesting areas and the Heart of a 1,000 acre Nature Reserve.
Note: Because the tubing is weather dependent, you may cancel anytime for full refund.
