How To Plan Your Frio River Tubing Trip

  1. – Local Outfitters: Some of the best local outfitters include Andy’s on River Road, Josh’s Frio River Outfitters, and Happy Hollow Frio River Outfitters.
  2. – Pack Smart: Bring broad-spectrum and water-resistant sunscreen, waterproof phone pouches, and snacks. If you’re staying at one of our vacation rentals on the Frio River, you’ll also want towels, coolers, and folding chairs for relaxing by the water.
  3. – Pick the Right Time: The Frio River tubing season typically runs from spring through early fall. Summer weekends are the most popular, so if you want a quieter experience, consider visiting on a weekday or early in the season.
  4. – Know the Float Routes: The Frio River offers multiple float options and isn’t like a lazy river where you come back around. Make sure to arrange your drop-off and pick-up plan with your chosen local outfitter.
