Salt River Tubing 4.0 (reviews)

Imagine a day filled with the refreshing splash of river water, laughter echoing through the canyon, and the sun gently warming your back. That's what awaits you at Salt River Tubing in the picturesque Tonto National Forest near Mesa, Arizona. The Salt River offers a unique opportunity for families to experience the thrill of tubing down its gentle rapids, surrounded by stunning desert scenery. It's an adventure where nature provides the entertainment, and all you need to bring is a sense of fun and a willingness to get a little wet!

Perfect for kids eight years and older, this outdoor activity is a fantastic way to enjoy the summer sun while cooling off in the river. Salt River Tubing provides everything you need, including tube rentals, so you don’t have to worry about bringing your own. As you float, you'll be treated to a variety of float routes that span from two to five hours, allowing you to choose the best fit for your family’s adventure level.

One of the highlights of the day is the convenient shuttle service included in your admission, ensuring the journey back is as smooth as the float down. Plus, the team at Salt River Tubing is committed to preserving the beauty of the environment. Families are encouraged to participate in their litter pick-up initiative; for every bag of trash collected, you receive a $7 discount coupon for your next visit. It's a fun and rewarding way to teach kids about taking care of nature!

Before you head out, remember that safety is a priority. Life vests are available for purchase, and it’s recommended to stay hydrated with at least two bottles of water during your river escapade. Lastly, keep an eye on your tube—there's a fee for lost or stolen ones. So pack your sunscreen, grab those inner tubes, and get ready for a memorable day of family fun at Salt River Tubing!
