Float Zion Virgin River Tubing Adventures

It was my first time water tubing, I went with my best friend and her husband and his friends. it was fun, I did get attacked by the trees though.

The staff were super nice and friendly and seemed like they actually wanted to be there🫶🏻

This was the perfect way to ease into our week long vacation. Zion Helicopters staff was friendly. Instructions for float were easy to understand. Equipment was in great condition. Only down side was the river being low. Would definitely use Zion Helicopters service again.

This was such a fun experience! The water was low so we got stuck a bunch of times, but that didn't detract at all from the enjoyment. It was at times peaceful and relaxing and at times exciting as we went through small rapids. The whole situation felt safe yet invigorating. The tubes are sturdy and have tough fabric on the bottom, so you sit inside them rather than having your legs dangle. They are able to withstand bumps on the rocks with no problem. Everything that you take with you in the tube gets wet, so we left our phones behind and only brought water bottles.

The instructions at the beginning were clear, and the exit point was well-marked. You only go maybe a mile and a half down the river, but it felt like more and was such a wonderful experience. At the end, the van was there to meet us and they had a place to hose off the mud and change clothes before we left the facility. All we needed to bring was a towel. Well-worth the cost, which wasn't even too much.

Lots of fun and very beautiful. Staff gave informative safety talk and were very efficient about collecting us at end of trip. Wish it were a bit longer for the price.

We did this trip with our 9 and 12 year old and it was great! Little harder for the adults due to low river so kept getting stuck on the rocks (in a couple of sections only). Overall it was a lot of fun!

It was fun but too short. I wish the ride was longer. So refreshing on a hot day and the water temperature was perfect. If the ride wasn’t there yet when we got to the end, we would have had some fun in the swimming hole.

This was SO much fun!! We are locals and have not tubed the Virgin River before. Reservations online were easy, and they greeted us right away when we arrived. Of course their are wavers to sign.

Their tubes are very nice and the life jackets fit well. The river was clear and could have been fuller (Monsoon season must be quite the adventure!!.) The only thing I would have changed was the climb up from the river was a little steep in the sand (I am 65 years old--I made it but it could be difficult for people who are older and not use to climbing in sand). But, I get it--not everything can be a Disney adventure. I was thankful someone carried my tube up for me!

You do use your arms to paddle to try to keep away from rocks, trees, etc. A couple of times I got out of my tube and repositioned myself in slightly deeper water. This is a great adventure for families! You do need to be able to in and out of your tube in the water on your own (which I could).

Staff was extremely friendly and helpful, information leading up to our reservation was clear. We had a great time as a group floating and swimming and enjoyed the gorgeous views!

They were just getting started and didn’t mention upon booking that anyone less than 12 wasn’t allowed to go. They were so concerned for our safety it got a bit boring and we had to walk our rafts over a sandy cattle trail rather than float the river they thought was too rough. I paid to float, not walk. Plus it was a short distance and we again at the end had to hold our rafts and hike up a sandy embankment. This wasn’t the same company we had a couple years ago which was 1/2 a mile longer and did not require you to go with a guide.

Tubing was the perfect activity for the heat and a great way to see the amazing views. Our guide was excellent and we had a great time.
