Nice relaxing river tibe - Great time had by my wife and , staff really good. Small bus ride, nice and relaxing tube ride down the river with a couple of bumpy waves, nothing dangerous or strenuous. Good fun.

Great experience! - Guides were great, experience was a lot of fun, low-key but very enjoyable day that would be suitable for the whole family with a few little thrills here and there with low grade rapids.

Great fun with kids - Overal experience was great. The tour guides were super friendly and the equipment was good as well. The only negative is that there was a bit of waiting at the beginning, but I guess it's part of getting everybody ready and we happen to be the first one. Other then that, it was great fun and the kids (8 & 11 year old) loved it

Great for families - My 8 year old daughter had seen an image of whitewater tubing while we were in the UK and a quick search landed me at the Cairns adventure group and Aussie Drifterz. The trip was brilliant, well organised, very safe and they guys made sure that everyone had a great time. My daughter got caught in the still buts quite often, so got frequent canoe bumps and tows - which she loved. The GoPro pics were a bonus so I wasn't worried about trying to capture the experience. We just both turned up and enjoyed it. Bonus juice and snack, and back to our hotel in time to chill for the afternoon. Definitely great for mini adventurers or those who like it sedate, with a few mild thrills. Great for families.

Relaxing - A very relaxing float with great scenery. Not a lot of fast moving water which meant that the drift was doable by anyone - even with zero experience. If you are seeking an "thrill" ride, this really isn't for you.
