Balthazar River Tubing & Scenic Drive

Balthazar River Tubing offers the thrill of a life time! Fed from sources located deep in the island’s interior, this river is nestled between exotic tropical rainforest, flora and fauna. The tour starts with a 45 minute drive out of the town of St. George’s through the scenic hilly interior of the Grand Etang Rainforest Reserve and on to the Balthazar Estate. The drive brings you to the launch site for the safety briefing. After the briefing you will be provided with your life vest, modified inner tube and a paddle before getting into the river. Your guides will accompany you on the journey, gently spinning and swirling in the currents of the river, as you take in the exotic scenery of tropical vegetation and wildlife, at the same time. A thrilling ride down the river, stopping in the pools along the way to catch your breath. Then finally at the last pool, an opportunity for a swim before you enjoy a much deserved rum punch or glass of local fruit juice before returning to your ship.
