This tour starts with the excited Tubing Adventure. Enjoy non-stop fun and excitement bouncing and splashing down 5 km (3 miles) of class 2 and 3 rapids along this narrow, rushing river of crystal clear water.

Adventure center was amazing. Great service, very personal and everything went smoothly. Highly recommend going at the 1:30/2:30 tour as there is much less people during that time.

We did the half day river tubing. It was a high adventure wild ride. Very exciting. Far more so than we might have expected. Very well run and the staff was great. The included lunch was delicious and plentiful. Thye hot springs and mud bath was also included and was a great way to relax.

Great trip down the river full of adrenaline. Lunch was good. And then relaxing in the hot springs. This activity is absolutely recommended!

Such a fun experience. That tubing trip down the river was the highlight of our vacation here. The lunch was great too and so was the hot springs and mud.

The tubing was very well run, exciting and a lot of fun. The staff at reception were very helpful. The buffet lunch was exceptional. The hot springs were a lovely way to relax at the end of the day. Again this was very well run. Clean dry towels were provided on both activities which was a real bonus. If we had stayed in the area for longer we would have done more of the activities and stayed at the hotel. You could easily have two days here and not run out of things to do.
