    River Tubing Locations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    There are several river tubing locations across the nation! Just Google “tubing rivers near me”<\/strong> to find a river near you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    If you are in Arizona, or if you are willing to travel, then you should definitely check out Salt River Tubing<\/a> located in the Tonto National Forest. They are the pros of river tubing! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Salt River Tubing has a few different tubing options to choose from, so check out their Float Trips<\/a> page for more information. You will also want to read their FAQ<\/a> for common questions as well as their Safety Tips<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    One thing to note about Salt River Tubing: in order to take your kids tubing they need to be over eight years old AND over four feet tall. Be sure to keep this in mind while you are planning your river adventure!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Fun Ideas For a Day of River Tubing<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Now that we’ve covered the essentials, you’ve seen the digital invitations, and we’ve discussed river tubing locations, let’s talk about planning your day on the river! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        You know what pairs great with a day of tubing? A picnic along the riverbank! To make it easier for yourself, as well as everyone invited, assign a food or drink for each person in the group to bring. An easy picnic lunch\/dinner would be sandwiches with chips, veggies or sliced fruit, Capri Sun, and some sort of dessert. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        For dessert may we suggest root beer floats? Get it? Root beer FLOATS? Since you’re FLOATING down the river? {Wink!}<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Be sure to get one of those floating coolers<\/mark><\/a> (or some sort of cooler) so you can pack all the food and keep it cool while you’re traveling down the river.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Even if you decide to have a family day with the kids or some one-on-one time with your spouse, you can still have a picnic! After all, time spent on the water makes everyone hungry!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Lasltly, we recommend having another person in the group brainstorm some games<\/a> to play while you’re floating in your tubes or chilling on the riverbank. Additionally, have someone else create an epic summertime tubing playlist. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Speaking of playlists, here are 10 of our favorite songs for summer!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
