We offer two options for you to enjoy the river's thrill
Lazy River Tubing Experience or our Turbo Tubing Adventure
The choice is Yours
Only $35 plus HST
Lazy River Tubing
Simple, Easy & Fun. The original Tubing experience & the BEST river fun for kids.
A relaxing 2½ hour float on our Lazy-River current that carries you down the beautiful Grand.
Sit back, relax and enjoy the sights and sounds of nature! Clip together with your friends and turn it into a “Party on the River”.
FREE taxi to your car is included.
NEW for 2020 Tubes now feature lounge backrests.
Turbo Tubing Adventure
For 3 hours, you’ll journey down 8 km of the fabulous Grand River. Turbo Tubing is more adventurous. It’s for fit individuals who want a more active experience.
You can drift with the current but, of the 8km, you’ll need to paddle about 750 meters. Turbo Tubes are also known as Hybrid River Kayaks. They’re stable (not tippy), comfortable and suitable for Tubers and first time kayakers alike.
Turbo Tubes come with kayak paddles so they’re steerable and you can explore more of the river.
FREE taxi to your car is included.
Just Imagine
Fun, Thrills, Adventure, Friends.
Our Lazy-River current carries you through kilometers of protected Eagle Habitat, Osprey nesting areas and the Heart of a 1,000 acre Nature Reserve.
All for only $35 plus HST (Note: Because the tubing is weather dependent, you may rebook anytime no charge.)
PLUS - Bonus Surprise at the end of your river adventure!
Come tube the prettiest and most diverse section of the Grand River with 473 Google 4.5 star reviews!
You'll enjoy hours of nature's majesty.

After Your Tubing Experience
We're in Cambridge and our Old Galt section is a real gem. Take the time to explore - it's FREE!
The Globe wrote, “Can’t afford to go to Europe, Old Galt is like a European village in Ontario.” It’s a beautiful old limestone city.
Old Galt is “Hollywood North.” Many films, TV shows and commercials are created here.
The Handmaid’s Tale, American Gods, Designated Survivor, Flatliners, 12 Monkeys and many more.
It’s a lovely village-like atmosphere with charming cafes, lively pubs, restaurants, historic mansions and heritage sites all within a short walking distance. It’s also a major wedding destination.
If you’re on the Turbo Tube trip, you end up in Old Galt. If you’re on the Lazy River Trip, our Taxi will return you to your car then it’s an 8-minute drive down a beautiful riverside road with no stop signs or stop lights into Old Galt where there’s FREE parking.
Fun places along the river to eat, drink & enjoy
Blackwing Cafe
Blackwing is a great cafe and bar in Old Galt. Sit on the patio and enjoy a coffee or cold one.
LA Franks
Called the best hot dog & ice cream stand in Ontario. It’s right on the river!
Melville Cafe
They make wonderful wood fired pizza and it’s just a 5-minute walk across the next bridge.
Enjoy!
We're sure you'll enjoy your tubing experience and thank you for considering spending your day with us and in Old Galt.
