How Long Does a River Tube Float Last?

Your ticket is a float window, not a counted number of laps. Water level changes how fast the river moves. A late start on a slow day is how groups miss the last shuttle.

Quick Facts

  • Timed float + last-shuttle cutoff
  • High water shortens the clock; low water stretches it
  • Bank stops add time you may not have
  • Ask what “last bus” means before you put in

FAQ

**Is two hours enough?** For many beginner runs, yes — if you leave on time and skip long bank hangs.

**What if I stop on a bank?** Fine in moderation. Watch the clock and the take-out landmark they briefed.

**Last bus?** Miss it and you walk, hitch a pricey pickup, or worse. Treat the cutoff as real.
