Float Zion Tubing

Float Zion Tubing brings a refreshing twist to southern Utah adventures, offering leisurely river floats down the Virgin River alongside guided jeep tours through the surrounding canyon landscape. Located in the small town of Virgin, just minutes from Zion National Park's western entrance, this outfitter provides a cool respite from desert hiking and a chance to experience the region from a different perspective.

The signature tubing experience takes adventurers on a gentle float down the Virgin River, the same waterway that carved Zion Canyon over millions of years. While water levels can vary seasonally, affecting float times and difficulty, the journey offers a peaceful way to take in the red rock scenery while cooling off in the desert heat. The staff provides tubes, safety equipment, and shuttle service, making the experience accessible for families and groups looking for a low-key outdoor activity.

Beyond the river floats, the company's guided jeep tours explore the backcountry terrain surrounding Virgin and the lesser-visited areas near Zion. Knowledgeable guides share insights about the local geology, wildlife, and history while navigating scenic backroads that most visitors never see. These tours particularly appeal to those wanting to venture beyond the main park corridors.

The friendly staff helps ensure a smooth experience, from equipment fitting to river put-in logistics. While the float duration can be shorter during low water periods, typically lasting about an hour, it remains a popular activity for those seeking a break from hiking or wanting to add variety to their Zion itinerary. The combination of river floating and jeep touring makes this a versatile stop for travelers exploring the greater Zion region.
