What you can expect
Rally the troops and get set for a fun-filled two-hour water tubing adventure down the scenic Upper Yarra River. Made for big kids and the big kids at heart, this experience is only for those 10 years and above with the ability swim, and who are ready for an adventure! Select your crew and forge your own journey as you float down the river on a self-guided tour of these stunning waterways.

From there, you'll be left to your own devices as you travel at your own pace to navigate natural obstacles, gentle rapids and winding bends. Ride on a high-quality river tube, built to handle the journey, as you bop along the currents or float cruisely along the stream.

Best activity we have done in years!
What an absolute blast! Two couples in our 60’s and 70’s of moderate fitness, we were up for adventure and river tubing on the Yarra River near Warburton far exceeded our expectations in every way. We paid a little extra to have our own guide Nick and he was totally worth the investment, providing local knowledge as well as a little prod when we got stuck along the journey. Thank you for helping to make it so perfect Nick! It was just so exhilarating and so beautiful to float along this majestic river and absorb a unique perspective of its unique scenery. We were fortunate to have a glorious 33 degree day and an environmental release to top up the water level. We did choose to hire a wetsuit jacket which was worthwhile too. Best activity done in years! Do it if you can. A perfect day.
We love the experience of tubing!!! Thank you!
We love the river tubing in Warburton- it's so relaxing, beautiful, and fun. This is the third time we've done this as a family. The Warburton Adventure Company are fantastic- giving great guidance and safety precautions. The experience is a real re-set for the nervous system too- great if you are feeling a bit fried from city / job etc. Thank you so much!
