Great experience in Cairns - Seeing a Ulysses butterfly going over the rapids and relaxing going through the forest. The instructions should be announced using a microphone as I could not hear anything on the bus. Highly recommend. Friendly staff.

Good experience that recovered from a bad start - Off to a bad start. Very late pick up ( 1/2) and told 3 different reasons for the delay. Once picked up, tour guides where informative, safety conscious, approachable and fun. Experience was fun and relaxing all at the same time. Snack of juice popper and cereal bar was OK given we where all really hungry. Only 1/2 hour from Cairns so didnt have to travel far. Short experience though, 3 hours in total.

Fantastic Day Out With Aussie Drifterz - Just a lovely way to go down the river, with very friendly staff. Safety was their main concern and they were always happy to help. All the equipment was in great condition, with new and air conditioned buses to get you to your destination. Thoroughly recommended

All ages fun in a stunning location - Fun experience in beautiful scenery. Lovely location, gorgeous river, nice chance to cool off from the heat.
Mostly a relaxing experience, with a couple of little thrills on grade two rapids. Excellent alternative to rafting if you have kids under 12. Guides were great. Pick-up process to all the different hotels took a while, so if you have access to a car, recommend joining at one of the later stops on the route. Would do again.

Really fun morning.... - Really fun morning. Picked up from our hotel and dropped back around 11.30. Tubing was gentle with some excitement in the rapids ( you could opt out if you wanted). Beautiful scenery and friendly guides

thrilling and fun for adults and kids - This was thrilling enough.. it certainly had enough rapids to keep it exciting. People did flip out of the tube and the river does have some deeper ends… lots of short kids are not able to tube independently. The tour guides Hannah and Andy were good. Overall
good exp

River tubing - Bring something natural to your Cairns memories! So I found this tour and joined it. The current was also gentle and there was a good rapid every now and then, which was very satisfying for adults and children. When I applied, they sent me a link to the agreement, and I was a bit drawn to the number of disclaimers, but I couldn't help it. We recommend that you complete this first.
There were two buses and nearly 60 participants on the day, but only two groups of Japanese people joined. On the bus, there were explanations of luggage and preparations, and when we got to the river, there were explanations for safety measures. It's all in English, so the bar is a bit high.
There is nowhere to change, so you should bring a large bath towel.
We were handed out juice and snacks while sneaking around the river and couldn't eat them lol
It was a few hours tour, but all in all it was a pleasant memory.

Good introduction to white water rafting if you’re a little apprehensive. - We had a very enjoyable tube ride day, quite relaxing floating through the calm bits, while the level 2 rapids were definitely fun - only wish there had been more of them! Well organised as well. Bonus social media photos taken which were weren’t expecting as well, though it is pretty tame and definitely safe enough to bring your own GoPro etc.
