Super fun!

5.00We had a wonderful time! It was our first time river tubing. Each of us had a guide that knew how to navigate the currents. They were super friendly and knowledgeable of the river. It's important to note that there are risks of injury such as hitting large rocks or large branches. Please follow the guides' instructions and be aware of your surroundings. Wouldn't recommend this for young kids or older adults as it's not that easy and it can be scary.
Great experience

5.00Extremely fun and thrilling, much faster and eventful than expected but really enjoyed the experience overall. We went as a group of four and were paired with one guide each who held our tubes and guided them along, they took great care of us and made sure we were safe, warning you WILL get completely wet… Food at the end was good, we had fresh pineapple and watermelon, a chicken sandwich, a muffin and a granola bar
Randy, Mario, and Josue are incredible!

5.0010/10!! Randy, Mario, and Josue were AMAZING! If you love roller coasters, you’ll love this. I was so impressed by the safety measures, strength and capability of our guides, and the length of the tour! We had the tour all to ourselves, and the mood was excellent. I would HIGHLY recommend this tour if you’re a thrill seeker. DEFINITELY wear waterproof shoes!
Highly recommend

5.00We had such a great day! Randy and Mario really looked after us and made the whole trip fun. It was a great mixture of rapids and slow bits to take it all in followed by a little camp lunch and drink. Really friendly. Highly recommend
Extreme River Tubing in Boquete Panama
Michelle H,Mar 31, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00When we arrived to our Airbnb, I told the host we were tubing the river and he looked at us with wide eyes and said “extreme!” We have floated many rivers in tubes (some even with helmets, like pictured) so we laughed at the extreme part. When we arrived to the input point, we were a bit startled to see the full body protection of knee, elbow, shin and head padding. Definitely glad for it though as the water was fast and rough and rocky. We were told we could leave personal belongings in the car (change of clothes) but there was no lock box or anything if you bring anything that needs protecting. Wish we had a dry bag with us as we were told by others to always keep passports on us at all times. And as for cameras, I barely had time to take my own pics as I was holding on tight, but the guides sent us some, which was awesome. We rock scrambled to both get in and out of the river. Do have good shoes to wear. The guides were amazing! They put everyone’s safety as top priority. A few people did flip, but everyone was all in one piece at the end. There was construction with digging equipment happening at one point so that was a bit unexpected as well. The guides held on to several tubers but some went solo. I preferred the solo parts but there was really no way to control your tube in the river besides jumping out in very fast water. Holding onto another tube can be very painful on your shoulders so beware. Thank goodness for the headgear as I did get knocked into several branches hard and I felt very protected on my head. My shoulders got a bit scraped up but nothing bad. There were drinks and snacks at the end and the guides did all the prep and clean up. All in all I had a great time, though definitely scary at parts, it just was not quite the a bit more chill floating I expected. Hope this helps you know what you are signing up for. I’m sure this changes based on water flow and time of year. Couldn’t say enough nice things about the company though- wonderful people!!!!

5.00It is an amazing experience, you should definitely follow the instructions of the guides to avoid injuries. But if you are an active person, who likes adrenaline this you should do.

5.00The guides are all super professional and fun! This is a definitive must-do and we are gonna do it way more times over again. So much fun and beautiful views along the river. Wear sneakers and bring dry clothes to change into after.
